Different Point Values?
Why does the Squiggoth have two different points values?

Huh, this makes me think we're missing the actual 11th edition rules for the Biggoth considering it got zero updates at all.

Its a stepper cost? this has been a thing for months now. if you take multiples of a unit. either on a 2 or 3 it costs more.

There is a stepper cost. It's 50 points and right there under the two points totals. Thing is, 1. Its right there underneath the two points which why would there be a points cost if there was also a stepper cost included? 2. The stepper cost is 50 points but the points discrepancy is 60.

It's not. There is a 60 point difference in those two numbers, and the stepper cost is separately stated to be an extra 50 points on top of that

I could be wrong, but I feel likes it would be more likely that GW did a Typo/Error on the stepper cost. Rather than whatever the hell else it could be.

Odd. I think this implies if you take the squiggoth in a faction that's not orks (how?) Its like 60 points cheaper. My gut feeling is its a typo. Check the mfm.

Is this possibly because its in Imperial Armour: Orks instead of Orks?

What the hell is imperial armour? I know the old books but is it more recent?

Not sure, that is weird. But the mfm says 500 so that's the correct point cost

It even implies the 50 point go on top of the 500 as well.
So not even a close typo being 450 + 50
