More chaff, more lads, more artillery Less monster.

Your artillery is whats going to win you the game the Doom Divers are probably the best artillery in the game with the ability to almost never miss a target I would take 3 doom divers and 3 spear chukkas. also if you can fit it somewhere on one of your heroes try getting a feedback scroll enemy wizards are your main concern just wait until one tries to dwellers you then feedback scroll him.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/516556/5433549.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/516556/5433549.page GMT Re:Goblin 2500 - Comments appreciated The real survivability of the core goblin unit is wound allocation. Since the unit is only five wide and Skulkers are treated like characters for wound purposes, in the first turn of combat the opponent can't attack my rank and file Gobbos.

I think I will end up dropping the monster and picking up the extra units/extra drops.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/516556/5433585.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/516556/5433585.page GMT Goblin 2500 - Comments appreciated

Unless you have an uber-spider model you love to put on the table and skitter around for a few turns (with the new DoC book there are even more cannons on the table), I'd vote for more gobs, more shooting, more pumping. Partially because pump wagons are aces

All told though I love the list, oozing character - especially the characters, fun builds all around. Does the gigantic spider rider go with the trolls? Trying to figure out the 9 Troll deal ...

I instead decided to go 3x3. Still gets 6 in combat while reducing the frontage and allowing me to take some wounds without losing attacks.

Spider warboss is machine hunter/chaff killer and with the Dragonhelm can tie up any unit with the always popular flaming banner. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/516556/5434126.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/516556/5434126.page GMT Re:Goblin 2500 - Comments appreciated
I love mangler squigs. If Im not taking 2 arachnoroks, then I makes sure I've got a mangler. They make sure that all my other stuff stays alive first urn or two.

I have several beutifully converted pump wagons and even with the sails, I've never got a charge off (4D6 dice) so I've always been a bit wary of them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/516556/5437245.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/516556/5437245.page GMT Goblin 2500 - Comments appreciated http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/516556/5438252.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/516556/5438252.page GMT Goblin 2500 - Comments appreciated Add 4 more chariots (2 units of 3 or 3 units of 2)
With leftover points, add 2 more goblin big bosses with great weapons. I found I needed 2 big bosses to have enough punch in melee.

Wizarding hat is made for goblin warbosses. While not totally correct, we house rule the spell generation. Shuffle the spell cards and draw 2.

Statistically goblins would probably be better than arachnarok, but what do statistics know about warhammer? I would take the monster option, an arachnaroks stats will terrify even a K'Daii destroyer or a coven throne and the model itself will put your opponent under stress as he will really wont want it in his lines. I would take arachnarok just for the pyscological benefits.

Coven throne? Mine dreams of fighting Ld6 goblin armies.
