Lizards vs. Cockroaches!

[golan2072]

While doing spring cleaning in my miniature storage cupboard, I came across some minis I haven't really touched in a year or so. But looking at them, I realized that I already have the fully-painted core of a whole GRUNTZ space-lizard army (Stan Johansen Miniatures Draco Infantry)!

Also, the beginning of a Bug army (Spriggan Miniatures SPUGs + Khurasan Miniatures Mantids):

Could you do some close ups of the Draco infantry as they could be some useful additions to my Lizards

Thanks for that real quick

It looks like they are well armed and armoured so maybe an elite unit for my little guys

Yep, they'd make a great shock platoon for your lizard forces!

By the way, I like them better than the CMG Kaamados, for various reasons including the fact that they have tails!

Draco Infantry Platoon:
1x Officer, 14pts
3x GRUNTZ squads, each with a Minigun and a Missile attachment, 62pts

TOTAL: 76pts.

I think that if I give them one Support Vehicle, they'll fit right in as a 100pts force; for a 200pts-250pts force, I'd fully mechanize them.
