I think Squats are under the aegis of Chroma, the ERC Xenos Champ right now. Given their origins (humans adapted to High-G worlds by GM or evolution) , their inclusion in the Imperium, and other factors, should they be under Steve54's umbrella?

Also, Mosc - you should update or get nealhunt to update the Army Champs list - it still shows dual AC-ship by Jaldon and epilgrim.

I'd say give them to Chroma. Steve54 already has lots of Human lists. Plus I doubt there ever be cross list with Imperial forces.

Bah! Xenos - they have diverged too far from the human genome.

They have to be human - lots of cross-over technology like Rhinos. I agree, however, that their status confuses matters.

I've been semi-passively planning a crossover list (some Squat equipment and proxies, some Imperial equipment and proxies. Some form of Mining Guild Regiment). I should post it up sometime.

I'd say they're sort-of close to being Human, but could fit in either. Maybe revisit it when there are a few more established lists, and such a determination would have more to work with?

Well, there's some unit crossover, but the same could be said of imperium and chaos lists.

Does it really matter anyway? you have the option of one overworked ERC member or a different overworked ERC member.

And Steve is responsible for Chaos and Imperium.

The problem isn't defining the Squats: the fluff says they're human, the tech is human, the list is human. The problem is the ERC design which is somewhat lopsided. As long as Steve can handle it, then great!
