About
Unit Description
Although not as mighty as Orcs, Night Goblins nevertheless control their forces through fear and savage, macabre bloodlust.
Historical Description
Orcs determine their hierarchy in a simple manner - the biggest and best fighter takes control. Goblins follow a less straightforward path to the top ranks, as they are both more devious and more cowardly than their brutish Orc cousins. Underhanded ploys and strategy are the preferred tactics for Goblins; although straight-up fighting is still an option, it is one that is typically left to the especially desperate. All Goblins use dirty tricks, with the best schemers being the most dangerous of their diminutive kind and the most likely to rise through the ranks. Those Goblins that make it to the very top are known as Warbosses or Warlords, although some of the more outlandish tribes might use more localised names such as a Wolf-khan, Grand Despot, Potentate, Bogtator, Chieftain-king or Great Grif.

melee defence, or high values in both. Some also have melee-focused skills like 
Charge Defence. Use them to counter other strong melee units. When facing them, it is best to take them out before they can enter melee.
poisonous attacks of this unit weaken the target's speed and damage.
Shields have a chance of blocking arrows, bolts, rifle shots and similar small arms fire - but only in a forward facing arc.
