Il like the second list a lot, but why no Night Gobbo great Shaman? Those +1D3 magic mushies come in very handy :D

Oh right, I forgot... it's because of your Chariot :lol:

I prefer the second one too. It is more versatile with some units that you can lost slowing down the enemy while your others flanking and beating him.
Why do you take light armor on the 15 goblin wolf rider on tne 1rst list, they will no longer be light cav, and a light armor will not protect them a lot, think it will be more efficient to take 3 unit of 5 wolf rider (very fast flanker that negates ranks).

And you don't use netters (i'm making an all night goblin army) are they unefficient? I've bought 12 to put in my units (haven't paint them yet, so never play them) and want your comments about those guys ;)

Thanks for the replies :) .

First of all, the reason I took LA on the 15 Wolf Boyz in the first list is because they'll turn into very cheap med cav. (They get 4+ armour save!) Ofcourse they wont be 'fast cavalry' but they'll still be fast and will actually pack quite a punch.

Although I haven't used netters myself I'm quite sure that they'll do wonders, going for a fighting NG unit? TAKE THEM! :) . I would take them except I cannot spare enough points to fit them in, I'd also like to equip my wolfboyz with shield but I cant find a good soloution.

And as a reply to Quasekomiki :P :P

I'm gonna move this to Non-Druchii-Discussion now :D You can discuss all other armies there and you'll probably get more replies there
