Just a Couple Critters

 I painted up these Monsterpocalypse minis for StarDust Ground during the week. I like how they turned out. Quite eye-catching, much like the rest of the Bug Army. 


These will be known as Parasites and will fulfill the role of Forward Observer / UAV. The whole exercise began as a deep-dive into Special Actions that were available to the various armies / factions. The Bugs were heavily restricted on what they could use in a meaningful fashion. Calling in artillery wasn't really an option for them since they had no FOs, so I gave them a couple of new single-stand units with that ability. Other armies don't have single-stand FO units, typically it's a function of a platoon leader, so this is a bit of unique flavor for this army. The other new unit that can act as a Forward Observer is that Brain Bug, featured here many months so. 

Of course, the BB fill a different niche and is more of a leader and coordinator, to be kept in with the herd.

I added quite a few new troop types to the Bug list many months ago and have finally started collecting minis for them. Expect to see more new SDG units here in the near future.
