So I just got some squiggoths and I really want to use them and have a good time. I don't need to win but I want to be able to put up a good fight against most things. I guarantee there are flaws with this list so suggestions for tweaking it are welcome. I am not willing to get rid of the squiggoths though.

Total 1850 points.

My thoughts were that aside from the bikers everything will be in the squiggoths and march up the field. I want to shoot as I advance and hopefully get everything into assault if they can win or stay in the squiggoths if the boys would get beat up.

How many bikers in the squads?

I'd take Da Lukky Stikk on your warboss over the Eadwoppa. Significantly better.

Squiggoth are tough, but with there being only three big units on the field, they're gonna draw fire from your opponent something fierce. I'd find some way to increase their durability, or diversify your threats.

Ok ya I have modified it some now. Here is what I've got bow.

I was told that the guns on the squiggoths were overpriced and I decided I agreed and added two bikers to each squad after removing all the extra weapons. Also the weirdboy was exchanged for a big mek with the KFF and such. I like eadwoppas killchoppa personally and so that's why that is there. That model itself has killed over 1400 points in two games so be is a personal favorite. Ya the big mek will go into the gargantuan to hopefully help it survive longer.
