We all know what these squat abhumans are or were, mentioned only briefly and not by name, in the imperial Guard Codex. (Page 24, if you're interested.)
I've been giving it some thought this morning, as I had my breakfast, and came up with some initial ideas for a nice little homebrew of how to represent them.
I have more ideas than I have time to type up now, but here's some teaser stuff...

Are there points to go along with this TKE? 'Cause we can't tell if they're OP, balanced or crap until we know what your charging for them.
I feel like the Ion weapons should do something special (haywire, maybe?) other than their high rate of fire, otherwise why not just call them something like a bolt/solid slug weapon.
Also, Squats have always struck me as being a bit hardier than normal humans. Maybe make 'em T4?
Ideas certainly worth considering. Now the tourny is out of the way, perhaps this project will get a bit further along. :)
