Is an all, or predominantly, Goblin army viable?

I'm thinking something mainly consisting of Night Goblin stuff.

Well let me put it this way. It is far better than a mono orc army!

A pure Goblin/Night Goblin army can be very effective as I have found out the hard way thanks to a player at my store. With the amount of bodies, special units (Mangler Squigs, Fanatics) and magic they are a formidable force. I agree with Crass, they are much better then a solid Orc list.

Depends.

Heavy on squigs? Yes

heavy on warmachine ( goblin crews ) Yes

heavy on giant creatures ( spiders, giants, manglers ) Yes

I love my night goblin army and plan on running it in the "Ard Boyz this april. As stated, I run 18-21 fanatics in my 3000 pt army and at least 2 mangler squigs. I use 5-6,20 man delivery systems no command and run them as fast as you can. I am actually going to try a variation of my list tonight.
