8th Ed. Skrox question

[Poqenichi]

Adding Kroxigor to a skink unit, the points cost, do they go towards your core or special units? Also would the Krox count towards the amount of special units or would they be seen as a core choice?

 

[chuqxla]

They are an upgrade to the skink squad so count towards the core. Remember that you have to take 8 skinks for every one (1) kroxigor and can't make the kroxigors into ancients.

 

[Maazie]

Nope, thats the beauty of the Skrox Unit.

Core Choice, Fear, You have to kill ALOT of skinks to get to the krox, and Can't be stomped

Downside it's easy to kill skinks in close combat so the kroxigors have to do a lot of damage to win combat!

 

[Maazie]

Yeah, Kind of have to rely on Flanking the Enemy or Steadfast.
