Anyone who doesn't know their stuff about t5he Orc and Goblin army will usually ignore them so they survive unscathed but the sheer number of shots you get off with them can bring down anything with T4 or lower in very quick order. In Forrenrend's Last Stand from the 3rd edition rulebook the Gobbo bows are one of the most effective units in the game and they usually get overlooked for the Wolf Riders, units of Orcs or the Fanatics. When Erny ran it at the Foundry at the first BOYL I took the O&G's and decimated the Elven Cavalry within two turns.<br /><br />I'm interested to see if they're as useful in this scenario because their effectiveness should hold true in any edition (until you get to 8th, the fact most units are 50+ to benefit from the "Horde" rules could well negate their usefulness).Snickithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12043252668515117665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8905698989087969872.post-39771526652201699422016-07-06T22:47:29.295-07:002016-07-06T22:47:29.295-07:00Last WFB game I played, a massive unit of skirmish...Last WFB game I played, a massive unit of skirmishing goblin archers was one of my best performers.
