    Default Gobos

    Hi guys,

    I am thinking of starting a campaign with orcs and goblins, but I just want to focus on using goblins. What do y'all think? Any helpful hints from people? I was thinking about doing a kinda lets play but with just posting AAR, or I could do a lets play. Would anybody be interested in that?

    Let me know,


    Frank

    If you're going to do a Goblin AAR wait till Reiksfart's "The Hardcore Fantasy Battle campaign" is released he has added lots of great units to the Goblin roster, it will take at least half a year untill that is released though, and could even last more than a year. If you have the patience to wait even a couple months longer I have planned to make a sub-submod out of Reiksfarts work where the Goblins will be a seperate faction (if that is not already the case in Reiksfart's submod, can't remember), the Interface et cetera will be goblinized, and some of the weaker Orc units will be available as mercenaries.

    Anyway, the current Goblin units are too weak to build entire armies with, you could recruit a few of the weaker Orc Units though, that would'nt be out of character a strong Goblin ruler would eventually gather some Orc units under his banner.

    "The only question that remained was whether the founders knew the final result of their creation, or if they themselves where the victims of a misunderstanding.
    In the latter case it was the duty of any thinking human, to press himself into the front of this depraved movement, to perhaps still prevent the extreme, in the former case the founders of this peoples disease must have been true devils; for only in the brain of a monster - not of a human - could the plan for an organisation take meaningfull form, whose purpose must lead toward the end result of a collapse of human culture and thus to the desolation of the world.
    In this case only battle remained as a means of final delivery, battle with any weapons that the human mind, intellect and will are able to comprehend, regardless, of whom fate would gift with it's blessing."

    I know what u mean about the goblin units. As for lore my plan is too use the existing Orc forces as part of the original Waagh, and as they die out a goblin hero rises to continue the fight. I am planning on using as many goblin units as I can afford, all artillery, and basic Ork archer and melee. Possibly, some basic Orc cavalry troops cause besides the goblin wolf riders I don't think they have any other cavalry. Also, I don't think there are any goblin generals so I have to stick with orc generals for now.




    What are some free software programs I can use to record the game for a lets play?

    I like roleplaying so much, just like you. But sometimes, scripted AI armies ruining it. The same thing is probably going to happen in your gobbo campaign too. The dwarves will keep sending suicide armies, that will both outnumber and outclass you, regardless of how many times you have destroyed them before. Even the best orc units are no match for the elite dwarf warriors. So, good luck as goblins .

    The dwarves are kinda acting like greenskins .

    Play night goblins. They are at least better placed. And you can charge with squigs.

    I like the roleplaying too. Have the savage boss get all the savage units. Have a goblin mercenary only goblin units.

    Greatswords reaction sums it all up though.. It's way too hard lol
