Goblin squig herd… with herders!
Adds a new squig herd unit including goblin herders, with prodders and cimbals.
I always loved the hybrid nature of the squid herds in tabletop, with the squigs and the goblin herders. I missed them so much I tried to mod them in. I finally managed to do it, with the many limitations of the game mechanics.
The new squig herd will be handled by 6 night goblins (any unit size concerned).
Half of them have prodders, to pinch the squigs’ backs, point them in the right direction, and pinch the face of the ennemy, if they can. They have bonus vs large (11) but deal less penetrating damage than the squigs.
The other half annoy the squigs with their cimbals, as much as anyone, really. They too have bonus vs large for the noise, but have less reach. Their animations and cimbals are DIY stuff sadly, don’t watch them too close.
They all stand behind the squigs and push them in the right direction.
Hope you’ll enjoy !
7/22/2020 :
- Thanks to Cataph’s info about the officers crashing when played by enemy AI, I patched the mod by making new units for the squig herd (herders) and forbidding the AI to recruit them.
- Increased the damage and range of the new ability "Squigs really gone wild!". It affects the squig unit too, so it will crumble fast if not rallied.
7/21/2020 :
- Changed the spears to prodders
- Added an ability called "Squigs really gone wild!". It activates when the morale is wavering and damages friend or foe around. This is inspired by the tabletop rule of Squigs gone wild.

I want to express my gratitude to all moders for all their work I had much pleasure to play with, to get inspiration from, and to learn from, by looking into the changes they have done.
The online guides (like of thesniperdevil) were of tremendous help, thank you to all participants to their elaboration and for taking the time to share. This is really important.
And of course, thank you CA for devoting to Warhammer fantasy in such length, it is a dream come true.
