The Squats currently have no scouts in their list. I am currently deciding what to do about that deficiency. Please vote and let your voice be heard.

Discussion on is on this thread.

The poll will run for two weeks.

I see the tactical motive of giving Tarantulas the scout ability, but troopwise (and fluff perhaps) it would make more sense given to Robots (if squats were to send anyone scouting, I'd imagine it would be autonoms like robots but not gun sentries like tarantulas).

I think I have the old WD with the RT robot rules. I'll give a look next time I'm in my workshop.

I'd suggest adopting the two robot types from the Ad Mech list; The Crusader robot has Scout.

I've now had a few games using this list and I back the idea of scouting robots.

We really need something to screen our thunderfires that thunderhawks have no fear of. I can't understand why some think thunderfires are overpowered.

Robots do seem to cover fluff and also gives a reason to take them.

At first I liked the idea of scouting Iron Hawks. But I prefer to have them move in an offensive rather than defensive position.

given there's a potential legio cybernetica list AND the demiurge robot list still to come, I'm not sure how tightly bound together we want the parent lists to be...

I'm going with no scouts, and just use sacrificial stubborn formations in the same role.
