Description: Thus the tradition of riding atop Squigs was born and the first mob of Squig Hoppers soon followed. When the living balls of muscle, teeth and claws.

Why should anyone build that when a wolf rider cost the same and is better?

Try confronting with existing units before making stats

anyone make a better stats? thanks.

btw, abilities are: can skip walls but need to close to him to jump [2 tiles]. can skip enemies in any range.[3 Tiles].

So it had a special. What about a cooldown skill that allows it to move for 1 turn like is flying but the tile were it lands should be forestwalkable

i agree Π_Π

what do you think?

That squig looks ugly No Hate to you works just that the Squigs looks god damn ugly!

try maing it taller than 32. With more space you might figure better how to make it look. Also goblins in game are more yellow than green, so try using the same colors

yes it's true, that's really ugly, i want to remake it later
.

Agree maybe add the goblin a small dagger or a small spear?

sure!

i didn't edit im just make a new one. now i made it.

i like the image from mightyguy. i think we should also make a progression for the unit.

Thanks for reviving , Any problem with stats .. benefits...??? everyone?

Here its abilities, it is very useful at skipping (Like a Jumping Kangaroo)

mighty can you draw other 2 levels? I'd like to make it as other orc units. Also orcs have only upgrades and almost no techs so I think it is better to have it already leveled.

what do you mean 2 levels? 2 variants? or 2 upgrade version?

what shall I make?

the existing image or make a new one?

I've edited the stats based on other orc units

It can use one of its two actions to jump (jump grows with levels)

The progression is slightly worse than the orc rider (that goes to speed 6 with warg riding, has poison and basically has a single big attack and it has high bonus against infantry) but jump is its trump card (provided in the future we make walls useful, even tough it is good in maps with many obstacles).

The attack would seem the same but two attacks means you apply armor two times and you take 2 counters instead than one.

The image you've made is not bad, you might increase a bit the contrast of light and shadow (you seem pretty used now). For the elite level you might add some armor on the goblin and for master level you might consider improving the goblin armor and adding some protection on the squig too.

Your idea about him is cool and I Agree...

The Image, I will work it but It may take a long time to finish...

Would you like me to do edit your images or do you prefer to do it by yourself?

I feel I'm gonna doing a wrong image again xd...

I mean , feel free to edit it...

the image is good, it just need some polishing

OK, I will try to do it.

I really can't, my traditonal method of shading was like this

Might lend you a hand?

I'll do it later. It shouldn't require much time.

I don't know if you like it but i searched for many squig images and found about multiple eyes and fangs so i was trying to add them to the concept but they resulted in a pretty different image.

What do you think?
