Squats, classified as Homo Sapiens Rotundus, are the descendants of early human settlers to mineral-rich high gravity worlds around the galactic core. Due to the conditions of these worlds, the Squats, over millennia, evolved into a short, stocky, and hardy species of Abhumans, standing on average 1.4 meters tall. Few Squats remain in the galaxy today, as their worlds were destroyed by an unnamed Tyranid fleet.

In my previous two posts, I have been showcasing Wargames Atlantic Einherjar (Space Dwarves) miniatures that I have used as proxies for Warhammer 40K Squats (the Squats were one of the original playable factions from the Rogue-Trader days of the game). In part 1 of this series, I have painted a group of six Squats in a winter camouflage pattern; in part 2, I have painted another group of Squats in a woodland/jungle camouflage pattern. I have finished painting a third group of Squats, which I have painted in a desert camouflage pattern. Photographs of the Squats have been added to the Old Guard, a humble Astra Militarum/Imperial fan site dedicated to the Imperial Guard range of old.

Wargames Atlantic, a U.K. based 28mm wargames miniatures company, produces a set of science fiction dwarves: The Death Fields Einherjar. The Einherjar box set contains eight identical sprues, which allows you to build a total of 24 miniatures (three figures per sprue). Each sprue includes 13 head options and several weapon options allowing you to add variety to your troops.
The Old Guard: An Astra Militarum/Imperial Guard Fan Site is a website dedicated to Games Workshop’s Warhammer 40K universe, with a focus on the classic range of Imperial Guard miniatures of old (the second edition of the game).
