While only slightly larger than their lesser kin, they are more ferocious and bloodthirsty than races ten times their size. Hobgoblins are only available to Goblins via the remort command.

Comments

Hobgoblins can be compared to humans in many ways, with the racial-evil counterbalancing the frenzy ability.

They are small enough to become fusiliers, however they hit poorly because they have a negative archery modifier. Their racial berserk will stack with frenzy for purposes of hitting. They are not no-fail, nor do they have good stealth. They are mostly for novelty and flavor.

Due to racial evil they cannot become bladedancers.
