If a Warboss is killed, the largest Nob of the tribe will take the Warboss's place, usually only after brutally restoring order among the tribe and establishing himself as the new Warboss. This works effectively out of combat, as things have time to sort themselves out through duels and challenges by would-be successors, but sometimes Ork Nobs fall upon one another during a battle, effectively destroying any sort of cohesion that the original Warboss had among the tribes under his command. Many an Ork invasion has been repelled due to killing the Warboss combined with a swift counter-attack, but such an action should never be thought of as a perfected method of fighting greenskins.{{cite this}}
Warbosses sometimes have a variation of titles depending on their place in Ork society. [[Speed Freek]] bosses are known as '''Speedbosses''', [[Mekboy]] bosses are known as '''Mekbosses''', while [[Flyboy]] bosses are known as '''Flybosses'''{{Fn|2}}. [[Beast Snaggas]] Warbosses are known as '''Beastbosses''' and they are decked in the spoils of their greatest kills. Beastsbosses lead from the front lines and look for the biggest, meanest prey they can find to bring down with their klaws. Rippling with muscle, scar tissue, and bad attitudes, these hulking Warbosses either walk run or ride [[Squigosaur]]s into battle.{{Fn|4}}
