I have three at the moment, and if the list turns out the way I expect it to with this being a single purchase in a 3000 point force, then I will potentially have a spare.
Just keep that in mind.
Cpt. Drill (Warseer) currently has the list and is going to see what he likes and dislikes about it. He will come back to me with more of his vision for the list. I think that is great as it means the development does not get stuck in a rut, nor is it 'wishy-washy due to 'too many cooks'. When it is finally released, I am hoping that it will be an enjoyable list.
Here is the vision I have been given so far by Cpt Drill:

My thoughts on how the Chaos Squats battles would look like would be... (This is a mix of fluff and in game stuff)
Spot the enemy army
Turn 1
Move out units of meatshields to key locations (Possibly garrisoning)
Open fire with some giant pieces of artillary (Some Warmachines with BP)
Turn 2
Meatshields advance and try to tie up formations/die horribly
Then the strike forces would move in.
Units such as Bikers/Buggies would attack flanks
Heavy war engines would attack the middle (Possibly carrying Chaos Squats)
Large armoured transport copters would drop elite slaves/mercs and Chaos Squats into key locations.
Turn 3
Chaos Squats would all dig in
Slave will probably all be dead by this point
Hopefully all the objectives are secure and its time to go back to base for a nice cool Chaos Ale.
If it is good and accepted, I am really aching to see about those
"Large armoured transport copters". There is definitely potential for some awesome modelling for this idea.
