Night Goblins - New Warband, v1.0

I love night Goblins. Its high time they crawled out of their caves and sacked this town. GOBBOS!!!!

*edit* sorry for this pointless comment dubstyles. I just had to voice my rabid/ crazy support of this thread without actually providing any valuable feedback.

Ah, now I get it... thanks for clarifying that time for some gobbo frenzied slinging than!

Thats fine superscenic, your enthusiasm is noted!

For some reason i cannot access my own website, getting a 403 error today, anyone else have the same issue?

Trying to figure it out...

Yes, I'm getting a 403 error also.

Sorry about the delay, website issue fixed, don't bother asking about the details it is embarrassingly stupid on my behalf

I still have not play tested the newest version, so don't come crying to me when it turns out to be broken!

Actually, please do share your experiences with the Night Goblins, I am thrilled so many people are tuned into this project!!

Time for a little update

Flame On have been running their new campaign for a good few weeks now and so far my Blue Moon NIght Goblins have had 5 outings with mixed success, well 2 out of 5 aint too bad for Night Goblins.

One thing that has arisen though is with the fanatics. WS2 and with their weapons being typically 2 handed means that they are striking last and suffer pretty hard in combat despite their high wound rate.

The fanatics on the mordheimer list though have this rule:

Frantic: The Fanatic is hyperactive and will strike first in combat ignoring penalties or bonuses for weapons or initiative order.

Unless I have misread the newest version of the rules I think the addition of it would balance things a little.

I'll get round to a battle report sooner or later

Fanatics do tend to under preform for the investment, maybe good addition, it gets my approval, without me having to actually edit the file...

Remember though, models attacking ball and chain wielders are at -1 to hit, which is substantial!

I think the potential to do horrendous damage is balanced with random tendencies across the board with Night Goblins. Squig movement, animosity, random strength spells... thing usually go wrong, but when things go right it is extremely satisfying!

Hey Pathfinder, any chance we can get a reupload of this list.

I feel the need to bring out my Night Gobbos again, and your list was definitely the most fun night gobbo list.

Hi bondoid, sorry i have not checked this forum in far too long and I've let my website expire!

I can upload it to GoogleDocs and share it with you, PM me your email please!

I'm currently looking to build a night gobbos warband but I dont find the link to download your rules.

I'd like to take a look at it.

Thx

Anyone got a working copy of this ?

I'm keen but the links don't work!

The link in the original post works for me even when I'm signed out of Google. If you do not have a Gmail account you might need to make one to access it.

EDIT: I am taking this time to make a few changes, I'll post a new version later.

Oooh an update. I'm looking forward to seeing it.

Night Goblins ver. 0.8 EDIT: SEE FIRST POST

Night Goblin Warband version 0.8 change log

The common consensus seems to be that the warband is underpowered, and even though I an loath to make them too powerful, I have made several adjustments to hopefully balance things.

Made Snotlings more like Nurglings.

Great Squig: Increased toughness to 5 to help offset the chance it has to attack you own models, and has a greater chance to go out of control due to its higher move. A Great Squig is now more comparable to a Rat Ogre stat-wise, so the cost has been increased to 210gc to match.

Animosity removed from Goonz: the warband has proved to be too unmanageable with it. Also, any promoted henchmen lose animosity thanks to their new-found authority. Made Goonz 0-3, bringing starting heroes up to 6. This matches other hoard factions (Skaven, Forest Goblins).

Gave the Herder access to Special skill as well as Herder skills. Increased the range of the Gassy Squig skill to D6”.

Fanatics messed with, no exp gain.

Changed various costs and made formatting changes.

I cannot download it ... the link isn't working.

Works fine for me...

The link works for me while logged out of google. It should work for anyone who clicks the link, since that is how sharing is set up for the document.

Yes... it works now. I dont know why I wasn't able before.

I get a "Permission needed to access this document" Warning from Google. Is there something wrong with the privacy setting?

QUICK UPDATE

Night Goblins version 0.9

Night Goblins version 0.9 change log
Fanatics: -1 ld, +1 ws
Folded Care and Feedin' into the Trainin' skill for the Herder. Trainin' originally offered no immediate advantage.

Shared setting is as follows:

"Anyone who has the link can access. No sign-in required."

I noticed I have gotten 4 requests to share version 0.7, which is unavailable because version 0.9 is now released.

@Pathfinder.

What do you use to make your documents.. I'd like to make stuff that look ''official'' like yours ?

I just use open office and export to pdf. Hans fractur is the modheimish looking font.

I don't know how I missed seeing this for so long. I've been using the one off mordheimer. It has lots of issues, but I wanted to use my Kev Adams night goblins. This list is tons better.

Has there been any work done on the doom diver hired sword? Or is there a place where I can download it a little easier? It would be fun to try out a couple times, and give me a reason to use yet another of my favorite models.

A bit late--
Doom Diver HS--as far as I know no one has touched it since Dave Joria wrote it. You can PM him from this forum (aka StyrofoamKing) or visit his site and contact him from there

Not sure if Pathfinder is still around here, but I wanted to say thanks for this again. I've been giving this link out anytime I get the chance.
