I'm not sure if this is the catagory this thread should be, but I was wondering if I could use my sniper scouts to count as Ratlings? I hate ratlings and I feel they make an IG army look kinda stupid(IMO) and I already have a scout sniper team. I know you really can do whatever you want, but I was really wondering how people feel about other people useing different models to count as something other than what they are.

i use normal snipers as my ratlings, i doubt tournements will let you but in a friendly game as long as you point out that they are ratlings it should be fine

I would not have an issue, if anything the SM are easier to see and, therefore, a disadvantage to you.

They do look dumb.

ah but they can aslo see over fences

Thanks for the opinions. Luckily most of my games are just games with friends.

Ratlings just remind me of hobbits to much...and I hate hobbits.
