I have no idea what anyone of you are talking about, I have never heard of any such "Squat"...

I voted yes because they just don't seem unique enough to have there own army. Don't get me wrong I think 5 armies of marines is lame as well, it's just I would rather see them as an additional unit for IG rather than a whole army unto themselves. Imagine it like chaos dwarves for warriors of chaos.

I will just say that if they brought Squats back, I'd start playing 40K as well as FB. They're really the only army that holds any appeal to me from that universe.

Yeah. Even just the models. I'd happily play IG rules for them if I could land the models without going broke (when you can even find them).

I've had better luck finding short run 3.5 Ravenloft material than I have finding a usable number of Squats.

Unless you're forced by tournament rules to use GW miniatures there are always the Grymn from Hasslefree.

I'd also check out some of the neat war engines from scotia grendel productions like the wargolem.

I loved the little stunties. My old gaming buddy had them & they were very entertaining to fight against.

Just google image search for omnom. You'll get the idea.


I voted w00t for squats. Still waiting for choas squats myself. Actually a squat made an appearance in my DH game last weekend. Great times were had by all.

DQ:80+S+++G+MB++I+Pw40k96#++D++A++/sWD-R++++T(T)DM+

Note: D+ can take over 12 hours of driving in Canada. It's no small task here.

Don't get me wrong...I think the squats could have had the coolest of the cool in all honesty. I know I'm going to step on some toes here (or completely obliterate them) but realistically since Squats are Dwarves there is only one 'fluff' that fits them imo and that would be as the Mechanicus.
