In the campaign, the Gremlin is used to weaken the tractor beams in the level ''[[Shield World (level)|Shield World]]''. It is later available during the level ''[[Repairs]]'' to be used to defend the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}}'s hull from [[Covenant]] boarders as [[HRUNTING Mark III Cyclops|Cyclopes]] repair the ship's power core. | In the campaign, the Gremlin is used to weaken the tractor beams in the level ''[[Shield World (level)|Shield World]]''.

In [[skirmish]] and multiplayer, the Gremlin serves as [[Ellen Anders|Professor Ellen Anders']] unique unit and is produced at the [[firebase]]. Although the Gremlin's weapon initially has minimal effect against infantry units, it can become fairly dangerous against infantry when the Focus Lens upgrade is researched. Strangely, the Gremlin's EMP weapon is reasonably effective against [[The Flood|Flood]] units and structures. It serves as an excellent anti-vehicle unit, as its EMP attack can prevent target vehicles from firing for certain periods of time and allowing other units to do extreme amount of damage with minimal threat of counterattack. In combination with the Cobra, these vehicles work very well together against all armored threats. However, while the Gremlin is an excellent deterrent to enemy vehicles, its almost non-existent armour makes almost any retaliation from enemy vehicles devestating; therefore, more well-protected units should be present to take the fire off of the Gremlin as it does its job. It also lacks any sort of air attack, making anti-air cover also essential in most cases. | In [[skirmish]] and multiplayer, the Gremlin serves as [[Ellen Anders|Professor Ellen Anders']] unique unit and is produced at the [[firebase]].
