Urthok
Snig
Sniglets x3
Goblin Skirmisher
Acheron Goblin x3
Bugbear Footpad
Greenspawn Sneak

11 activations, 100pts
The Acherons hit for 15dmg each when bolstered and under command hit for +11 and can take 30 damage a piece.

Now dropping the Footpad and the skirmisher and upping the game to a 200pt match allows space for the Forgepriest for magic weapon and credible threat and a Chraal to attach to Urthok (and for area effect damage).  Just don't leave him beside the Giant if he bursts.

Snig
Sniglets x3
Fire Giant Forgepriest
Chraal
Acheron Goblin x3
Greenspawn Sneak

Hmm, I like this, lots of goblins, lots of damage, and a fire giant. Plus you can present two different elemental immunities depending on what your're facing, also good. VP should be easy, since sending one or two acheron's plus sniglets after enemy point grabbers will deal with them quickly enough. The remaining acherons can actually present a fairly credible threat under command, and can provide good flanking etc.

One thought would be to drop the chraal for a bodyguard, it looses some melee power, but gains in survivability. Plus it helps the fire giant out against cold damage, or, if your not facing any of that, can make Urthok more resistant as well.

All in all a fun band I'd like to try.

I think that is a great idea. Makes the giant immune to cold and gets rid of the requires commander creature.

I think i might have to try this out or at least a version of it. I have been thinking of a goblin warband for a little while.

The bodyguard is an obvious boon. I was more or less vying for area damage with the chraal.

I was waiting for this idea to pop up in a dozen iterations. The Acheron Goblins are just too obvious a team with Snig. My first thought was a Beholder (just cuz Beholders are fun), but the forgepriest is probably better.
