	The Votann themselves are ultra-cogitators containing generations worth of inherited wisdom and knowledge, from military theory to philosophy and even a handful of STCs.

	Think that Squats had it bad? Well, these guys are pretty much the Squats ''of'' the Squats. Just as Fantasy had its [[Chaos Dwarfs]], so too did Squats have their Chaotically-inclined counterparts (alas, without hats). While there were no real rules for them on the tabletop, miniatures were released, because this was still when Citadel put out miniatures for things that didn't necessarily have gaming rules. They were allied to [[Chaos Space Marines]] and maintained their equipment, including building Titans and [[Daemon Engine\|Daemon Engines]], in a role later taken over by the [[Dark Mechanicus]]. Some Squats fell to chaos during the Horus Heresy and fought for Horus. They were banished to the Eye of Terror along with the Traitor Legions when Horus was defeated. Also, Squats who fall to Chaos are willing to fight as mercenaries for Orks and Eldar... for some reason. Congratulations, you've just read everything there is to know about Chaos Squats that was ever written.		Think that Squats had it bad? Well, these guys are pretty much the Squats ''of'' the Squats.

	"Squat" is also sometimes used as a verb by fans of Warhammer 40k. This refers to the removal of the Squats from both the game and the [[fluff]] behind it; in particular, some people believe that other armies will be "squatted" from 40k, which is to say, their model line will be removed and they will no longer be [[Zoats\|playable]] in 40k. There have been cries of "they're getting squatted!" for basically every army that wasn't updated within two years, including, but not limited to, [[Dark Eldar]], [[Necrons]], [[Sisters of Battle]], and [[Black Templars]] (we're also pretty confident that if [[Robin Cruddace\| a Certain Imperial Guard player]] had the power to he would squat the [[Tyranid\|Space bugs]] in an instant, he certainly tried during 6th Edition - and now he's back again in 8th Ed. ''Theres also rumors of this in 9th edition with talk of Tyranids attempting to Siege Terra with mentions of them being close to the solar system in the latest psychic awakening!'' ) So far, this has mostly been proven false; both Dark Eldar and Necrons got new codices, and Sisters were released in plastic in 2019. Meanwhile, the Black Templars have been rolled up into the Space Marines, but, importantly, ''they still exist.'' Of the Chapters included, Templars are easily the most divergent, and although some of the fluff has been retconned, it was usually in a fairly logical way (how do you get around if you hate [[Astropath]]s and [[Navigator]]s, anyway?). As such, all those whining "they're getting squatted!" are pretty silly, and you're probably hearing them on [[Warseer]].		"Squat" is also sometimes used as a verb by fans of Warhammer 40k.

	The Votann themselves are ultra-cogitators containing generations worth of inherited wisdom and knowledge, from military theory to philosophy and even a handful of STCs. Like the Ancestor Gods of Fantasy, the kin venerate them as sacred objects and rely on their guidance to maintain their society. The catch? The Votann were never meant to run for millennia nonstop and it's starting to show from their declining performance. More worryingly, some are starting to show signs of developing personalities, which would definitely make the AdMech throw a fit if the nature of the Votann wasn't such a carefully kept secret from outsiders.

	And now thanks to [[Age of Sigmar]] you got the [[Kharadron Overlords]], [[Awesome\|they are steam-armoured flying pirate dwarfs]]! There is a running gag that states that the Kharadron Overlords are surviving Squats who had fled Warhammer 40,000 into Warhammer Age of Sigmar due to how 40k the Kharadron models look. Time to get the conversions up and running! We recommend one of the space marine codexs that can take flying transport or flyer heavy Tempestus so you can use all those sweet Æther ships. This is probably your best bet if you want to use your army at official games.

	For playing Squats with the Horus Heresy books. The Imperial Militia and Cults army list will allow players to create a decent proxy. Buy a Force Commander, give him the Survivors of the Dark Age and Abhuman Helots Provenances of War. This allows you to use [[Rhino\|Rhinos]] and the [[Land Raider Proteus]] as dedicated transports. For small amount of points you can upgrade the Rotor Cannons and Las-weapons of Grenadier and Platoon Command Cadre squads. Since both squads have access to Bolters and Grenade Launchers most players will take them instead.		For playing Squats with the Horus Heresy books.

	Ogryns outside of the Solar Auxilia suck if you're not taking Power Weapons. Due to their low BS of two. Three Enginseer Auxilia Adepts and fully kitted out Servo-Automata with Phased Plasma-fusils or GLs are the superior and more fluffy Elite option.
