Stuff-Snatchers Command

Night Goblin Warboss

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.

Abilities

• Da Boss' Loons
  Force-feeding madness-inducing fungus brew to your minions can be advantageous but risky, with wholly unpredictable results.
• Fermented Fungi
  Rotten mushroom gas wafted towards the enemy can cause them to lose their mind at the worst possible moment in battle.
• Get Back 'Ere!
  Da Boss ain't ready to run an' so expects da boyz to stay put too!

Attributes

• {{tr:guerrilla_deployment}}

Strengths & Weaknesses

• Shielded
  Shields have a chance of blocking arrows, bolts, rifle shots and similar small arms fire - but only in a forward facing arc.
• Poison Attacks
  The poisonous attacks of this unit weaken the target's speed and damage.
• Melee Expert
  Melee Experts might have a very strong 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.
