You shouldn't have bought ANY models before you bought the army book.
Go get it before any future purchases.

I wouldn't say you'd have to have it before getting any models, but it should definitely be one of your first purchases. I'd go pick it up!
If you want to scratch the itch and play around with unit options, you can also download army builder from the Lone Wolf website. The demo version lets you go up to a low point value and/or just put in a few units at a time, but it still lets you get a feel for some of the unit options.
To know their abilities/rules/etc and really decide what's worth taking, you'll need the army book, though!
I'd also get it now... the prices on army books (and some other items) will be going up June 1, I believe.

Theres absolutely nothing wrong with an all Goblin army, on a good day they can stomp all over any opponent.
A huge Cheap massed infantry line combined with Wolf riders and spider riders on the flanks, supported by the fancy hard hitting stuff works great. And if 8th ed is bringing massed core units back to the fore it will work even better.

There is nothing like the troubling and disturbing site of all those massed ranks of Orc & Goblin infantry that will soon saturate your battle line.
