	Generally left to their own devices, Snotlings do not fit into the traditional [[Orcs & Goblins]] hierarchy. Goblins torture them, like they do all things smaller and weaker than themselves, and Orcs will bully them into work for the same reason. In the latter scenario, Snotlings eagerly do as they are told with a full intent to please. Their lack of intelligence severely limits their helpfulness however, as an Orc demanding they bring him his favorite short stabba will receive everything but, and belonging to everyone else in his group. Many Orcs find their simplicity and willingness to cooperate endearing, luckily, naming them and keeping their favorites nearby. Foul-tempered Orcs and Squigs may still react with hostility and even hunger towards them.

	While Snotlings don't build the elaborate (for greenskin) structures that Goblins do, and have never been seen smithing alongside [[Black Orc]]s, they do possess a sense of ingenuity. Even among Savage Orcs they will scavenge wood and metal, assembling devices commonly known as "Pump Wagons" which are a Snotling-powered Snotling delivery system resembling [[METAL BOXES\|wooden bawkses]], getting them into fights faster than their kin and doing much more damage to enemies than most greenskins will survive to do.

	Oh boy, you thought [[Grot\|Gretchins]] get no respect? Snotlings are figuratively (and sometimes literally) the icky paste at the bottom of the barrel of the Ork hierarchy. Viewed as nothing more than diminutive and immature Gretchins, these poor slobs get picked on and bullied by everyone within Ork society; even the wimpiest of Grots still have some form of use beyond cannon fodder.

	Snotlings fulfill the useful [[Tarpit]] role using their 5 Wounds and low point cost, although in an army where theoretically anything can fill that function they stand out by being Immune to Psychology due to being a Swarm, and having them wiped out (which is quite likely as they have little to no survivability) does not panic your other troops.

	Pump Wagons are far more useful, showing up in many [[Netlist]]s due to their high damage and ability to charge models without allowing a reaction move. They are fragile, but with target mitigation using enough Squigs you can easily force most opponents to pick their poison between the two.

	Cannon fodders' cannon fodder, that's it. Snotlings are so useless in a battlefield that even Grots consider them as cannon fodder. Since they're simpletons, they are often armed with very basic (we mean '''''very basic''''') weaponry such as sticks, sharp glass or a wet sock. Obviously they would deal as much threat as a very angry kitten; fortunately though, they come in ludicrous numbers, resulting often in drowning their enemies in blood and bodies.

	There are rumors among the larger Gretchin that Snotlings are the direct descendants of the "Brain Boyz" ([[Old Ones (Warhammer)\|the Old Ones]], who created the Orks).

Some Orks believe it might be true, others think it's just a folk tale the Gretchin tell themselves to feel better, and neither camp actually ''cares'' if it's true as long as the Gretchin get back to work.
