Product detailed description
"Bite, leap, lose control!"
The Squig Herd is the ideal choice for players who love unpredictability, an aggressive fighting style, and insane energy.

Where does the Squig Herd belong?
The Squig Herd is a unit from the game Warhammer Age of Sigmar, specifically the Gloomspite Gitz faction, which inhabits dark caves and brings madness to the battlefield. The Squigs are led by crazed herders who drive them into combat.
They are among the Battleline units – the basic infantry that can be deployed as the main force of the army if you have a Moonclan general.
Ideal for players who want to play with unpredictable, fast, and extremely aggressive units that can surprise opponents with their power and style.
