|align=center|'''We have always been a race of traders. It is natural to us that we should trade the fighting skills of our [[Brotherhood (Squats)|Brotherhoods]]. As well as bringing us a profit, it also allows our youngsters to gain experience and honour, and to keep alive the skills which our [[Stronghold (Squats)|strongholds]] may one day need for their own defence.'''

|align=center|'''Squats have long memories and never forget an act of treachery or a broken promise. The relationship between the [[Homeworld (Squats)|Homeworlds]] and the [[Imperium]] has always been strained, and the history of the two peoples is studded with bouts of war and ill-feeling. Squats are not diplomatic by nature, their brutal manners and fierce tempers do not always inspire confidence in men. [[Eldar]] regard them as little more than beasts and only barely preferable to [[Ork]]s. But the Squats care little for the effete ways of men or the mincing delicacies of the Eldar. Squats are robust in body and bluff in manner, and consider other races fragile and lacking in the good, honest Squat virtues of comradeship and directness.
