===Big Squiggoths===
[[File:BigSquiggoth.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Big Squiggoth, the Ork's ultimate [[DISTRACTION CARNIFEX]].]]

The smallest (Though still quite large) and most common variety of Squiggoths. Big Squiggoths stand about the size of a Leman Russ tank or an Elephant. Their smaller size is the result of either youth or the poor breeding methods of their Ork caretakers. Hence, their inferior size means that they are the Ork's [[Rhino]] to the Gargantuan Squiggoth's [[Land Raider]]. They often travel in packs, particularly on worlds dominated by Feral Orks.

Either way, they are still large and powerful enough to smack light and medium vehicles like tin cans and devour entire [[Space Marines]] if given the appropriate chance and mood of these beasts of burden.

On the tabletop in 8th edition, the Big Squiggoth or otherwise simply known as the Squiggoth is a gargantuan creature that is cheaper than its larger brethren but subsequently weaker as a result. Therefore, some Ork players are known to use these beasts as a giant [[DISTRACTION CARNIFEX]] by packing a few of them and charging head long into enemy formation.

Because of this, the Big Squiggoth is a bit more limited than the Trukk in what it can transport, but it hits really hard in melee and can take a bigger beating with its 18 wounds. Units embarked on the Squiggoth as well as the Squiggoth's own gun can fire their weapons normally from it if it's got an enemy 1" or less away (i.e. in melee range with the Squiggoth), but can't target that particular enemy. Stampede! inflicts D3 mortal wounds on a 2+ to every unit within 1" at the end of a Charge as of the [[Forge World#Company|Forge World]] FAQs.
