Megalith Games: These characterful sculpts accurately convey the sneaky, underhanded nature of this Gnoll warlord. Take for example the fact that they gain advanced deployment, and is harder to hit when he moves two or more times.
Alternatively let him lurk in cover (using his Concealment tactic) and then he benefits from a nasty targeting bonus with his shooting. Besides that, his sneakiness allows him to charge without moving in a straight line. The Filthling is a master of misdirection, also in directing his troops who are moving about in seemingly random or confused manner while in fact they are performing feints and other ploys. In this way, units can still charge after making a MOV or MEL action!
Although his looks puny (and is puny!), the Filthling is an insidiously handy rascal to have leading your warband, and if he dies (as he likely will!), you probably have his brother nearby since you can deploy two Filthlings as a single warlord choice! The Filthling adds a new dimension to the Troglodytes, allowing you to field not only Gnolls warbands but also add some sneakiness to your Shadow Trolls or Trolloth sub-faction warbands. Without a doubt, he is an entertaining little guy to play.
