There are three particular eyesore stats in their profile: Fight 2, Defense 3, and Courage 2. For 4 Points each, you get a solid combat profile. No one is going to look at all the various profiles in this game and conclude that the Goblin Warrior is a combat powerhouse.In my opinion (and I think most experienced GT players would agree), the generic Goblin Warrior profile is among the most efficient profiles in the game, and a huge part of what makes Goblin Town such a strong horde. But I'll confess that I was surprised to hear how much he dislikes the generic Goblin Warrior (or at least vastly prefers the Goblin Mercenary Warriors, who we will definitely discuss in a little bit). I'll caveat what I'm about to say next by encouraging you to listen to the podcast, because Evan's guest, Alex Rieger, has a lot of great tips on how to play Goblin-Town (as do most experienced GT players). While doing some homework for our upcoming TMAT Grand Tournament, I stumbled on this podcast by The Chump in the East on Goblin-Town. Strength: Generic Goblin Warriors have an extremely efficient stat line.There are three primary reasons why: generic Goblin Warriors are an extremely efficient use of points they have extremely well-costed spammable heroes who can lead lots of those Warriors and the Goblin Scribe is the only model in the game who allows you to exceed whatever the points-limit is for your game by bring additional models onto the table. Goblin-Town isn't the only "horde" army in MESBG, but even among hordes its ability to horde stands out, because there's just no other army in the game that can swarm The cheapest and swarmy-est of cheap swarms. And in competitive tournaments especially (where most scenarios reward you for having lots of models in one/multiple places, and/or being able to break your opponents without breaking yourself), outnumbering your opponent by twice or more is a huge advantage. In most games, you should aim to double your opponent's expected army size, and in most games you'll be able to hit that mark without trying too hard.
What? You were expecting something more profound? Don't get me wrong-there's a lot of strengths (and even some neat tricks) in Goblin-Town, but almost all of them flow from the fact that you have a ton of models (which means a ton of board control when you move, a ton of dice when you fight, and a ton of bodies that your opponent has to chew through.
