Whaddya think?

exactly why would you want to field one of these?, i say make it a wargear option for a wierdboy, adds that psychic power, and gives him plus d3 attacks in closecombat

I'd say a Weirdboy can take up to 3 of these, and by discarding one, he can do one of the following each time.

- Ignore a PitW attack.
- Count as one Mastery Level higher than normal.
- Choose which power to use from the Weirdboy chart that turn.

Hmmm I suppose that would work, but I think Weirdboy should take him like a burna squad takes a Mek. Plus, I'll get rid of the feed to cuddles rule.

Yeah, that would be good

cool idea..

a tact marine can ID him lol

Bet he didn't see that coming

:0! It's a Psychic squig! Stay frosty.

brains, for the brain squig..

WS4 for a squig? also maybe change the invun save to 6++
Besides that it "sounds legit"

If anything, he needs to be made tougher. I'd always seen squigs as being able to give eldar a run for their money. As it happens he can be id'd be pretty much anything; shuriken pistols, tactical marines as has already been said.

Unless you made it like some kind of bomb that detonates on destruction? That would be fun; a unit of these things charging forward with blue sparks coming off 'em whenever they blow up, doing some kind of psychic damage to all non psychic squigs under the large blast template.

And the best part is, that's cinematic. It's like they're made for 6th ed!

Toughness increased to 4 and everyone should see my other squig rules!

Wat about a herder of some kind? That could make him like his own unit.
