Yikes! Cut-and-paste atrocity if you ask me, could use ...

1) Serious work on the characters and tricksy gear
2) 4 less bolt throwers
3) Way more squigs

Leaving this to the goblin generals out there otherwise ...

I play orcs/gobbos and when i play just night gobbos thats almost the same list i play. i would however put the units together. the best luck ive had with CC is to swarm other units. sure they kill 5 or 6 but out of 70 thats not much and you will always outnumber. id go with one unit of 70 then one of 60.
Keep your chukkas as they will wipe the floor with most rank/file units long before they get to you. the 8 you have targeting one unit will insure that boom that unit takes a break test. only other thing i would change is throw in a lv 8 mage and a staff of sneaky stealing. as well as some spider riders as they carry short bows and can go over almost any terrain.

i play gobbos as well (u commented on my gobbo list on warseer) but i have to ask, where is the staff on sneaky stealin?, IMO it is possable the best Arcane item in the whole O&G list, it not only robbs the opponent of a dice but you get it for your dispel pool, leaving you with 7 dispel dice that would mena that you could probably shut down most magic phases.

i agree, less bolt throwers and more squigs, squigs when combined with giants caus a massive mess (assuming you dont charge the opponents elite units, then they just die )

while i agree that bolt throwers will make a mess of most things, hell, the steg heavy lists will cry in pain as they are skewered by the pinical of goblin technology, people are likly to call cheese when they see that many bolt throwers on the field.

the list would deffinatly be compeditive but your comp score might be hit a little because of the bolt throwers and double giants

I shouldn't see why after all it's night goblins they are going to be sneaky at heart exactly what else do they have at their disposal to wreak havoc.

i know it is pretty silly to call goblins cheese, but that many bolt throwers will make what is at the moment an ok list (addmittedly you might want to drop a shaman for a BSB with the raggedy banner, panic is realy gonna hurt this army with the smal blocks of infantry)

that amount of bolt throwers is a little over the top, i personaly see 5 as pusing it a little (keep in mind that i am goblin player as well) because i have seen what they can do to big monsters and infantry blocks. is this for tourniment play of friendly play?, because for tourniment play i would suggest losing 3-4 chukkas and usin the points to either make you goblin blocks bigger and/or getting some squigs and more fast cavelry.

the fast cavelry is good to stop the elite units of the opposing army hitting where they want to and the squigs make a great tag team when combined with the giants.

my 2c

Need some Spider Riders and way better characters.
