Gloomspite Gitz – Boingrot Bounderz
D6+6" 2 5+ 1 Should a squig rider actually survive a battle or two, it will immediately go to their head. Cladding themselves in crude armour complete with crescent-shaped helms, these swaggering show-offs form into elite mobs who refer to themselves as Boingrot Bounderz. Their relative experience in hanging onto their ornery steeds means that they are actually able to contribute somewhat to the battle, jabbing out with wonky lances while their squigs – no doubt doubly riled because of the extra weight they have to carry – crash into the enemy like fungal meteors.
The lances of these wild-eyed warriors transform them into bouncing knightly parodies. In a crude echo of jousters and their ostentatious finery, these braggadocious elites craft their ornamentation from fancy pieces of scrap metal scavenged from their foes. They are at their most powerful on the charge, for their unhinged bravado is at its peak before the enemy has had a chance to hit back, and their lances, shoddy as they are, can inflict surprising damage at full tilt. Should a Boingrot Bounder slay a foe and survive the battle, their inflated confidence renders them so insufferable that they are likely to come to an ignoble end, shanked in some dingy nook by their jealous peers and left for the squigs. | ||

This often represents units that bounce, bound or skitter across the battlefield so adeptly that they might as well be flying! | ||
