amongst other tiny things (rats, snakes, sprites, rippers, things that size) making another 100 or so

and I have no idea what to do with them...

I originally thought of making some weird army like make a hugely ornate base (quite tall), convert the snotling to look like a superhero and counting it as a terminator, but I donno if people would go for that
then there was an idea of mad max/raiders of atlantis snotlings
then there was a weird faerie-sprite army

it just goes on and on

does anyone have a better idea?

Wait, what? You have over 100 snotlings? Wow. Do you mean the GW snotling bases, or are you sculpting your own?

Hard to tell without a pic or something to give me ideas....

Oh, wait, here's one... What about a counts-as grot rebellion army, using a grot spam style list, but using snotlings as gretchin and using gretchin as runtherds? Hahaha, it would work fluff-wise too.. The grots lord it over the snots as the orks kick them around.

Lol... then terrain is all I can think of. Actually, your idea of them joining together to form some monster would be hilarious.

Just a thought, but if you don't have much of a use for; why don;t you just sell/trade them for something you can use?

There has to be someone out there who would wants a bunch of snotlings.

there's nothing I really want, I've played most armies and grown board of them (don't want to play any sort of marines, dislike eldar and tau, played sisters, have dark eldar, guard and orks, bro has necrons and tyranids)
fantasy is another can of worms all together

My FIRST thought is to make a Snotling heavy Orcs and Goblins army for Fantasy, seeing as you can actually FIELD them in that game. The units can LITERALLY be infinite number of snotlings, as there is no maximum size. They even have a nasty throwing attack that negates armor. An entire regiment of Knights barreling towards you? Snotling mushroom bombs waste them all. XD Toss in some Snotling Pump wagons, some Orcs or Gobbos to boss them around and be core, and a shiny General (which could be the Snotling "Dreadnaught", which is my other favorite idea)

If nothing else, there might be many other people who can make use of them. Hell, this thread has made ME intrigued. XD

The correct question is, would I be enjoying this hobby if I did this?

The correct audience is you.
