'''Forge town''' was a town type planned for {{ab}}. It was based on a mix of technology and the Might & Magic universe, and had Goblins, Zombies, people and "borrowed" creatures using among other things chainsaws, guns, jetpacks, and rocket launchers. However, it was scrapped in the end and replaced with [[Conflux town]] – due to protests from the fans.

== The Forge in the lore ==
{{Cram|Goblin Barracks|Goblin|Hobgoblin|no_dwelling=|pad=7px 10px 3px 3px|-={{---}}}}
The Heavenly Forge itself was created by the Ancients, a futuristic race that exists in the HOMM and MM universe, presumably the creators of the races -- of the world. However, after the intergalactic web that connected the Ancients' was heavily damaged by the alien race [[Kreegan|Kreegans]], the Ancients lost connection with many of their worlds and the Heavenly Forge remained inactive on Enroth for many years.  
'''Goblins and Hobgoblins''' are level 1 creatures of [[Stronghold town]]. They are recruited from [[Goblin Barracks]].


In the events of Might and Magic 7, if you were to take the evil route (supposedly to canonical one), Kastore and his necromantic cult got hold of the Heavenly Forge and started using it as 3D replicator to create equipment and everything needed to assemble a futuristic army to take over Enroth. In the end, Gelu, Catherine and Roland were supposed to take the Armageddon's Blade out of the Ancients' vault, the Varn Vault, and then use it to destroy the Heavenly Forge itself, an event to automatically destroy every evidence of the Forge's existence.

Goblins and Hobgoblins are level 1 creatures of Stronghold town. They are recruited from Goblin Barracks.

"While goblins and hobgoblins are slightly below average among the basic foot soldier units, they are quite numerous. They attack with spiked maces." RoE manual

Building the Mess Hall increases Goblin and Hobgoblin growth by 8 per week.

Tactics and info

They have pretty high attack for a level 1 unit, and are effective attackers when in numbers. Their speed and growth helps too.

Heroes with a specialty

GretchinGretchinGretchin Gretchin the Barbarian has goblins as a specialty, which increases the attack and defense skills of any goblins or hobgoblins for each level attained after 1st level and gives them a speed bonus of 1.

Trivia

In the lore itself, the goblins (and hobgoblins) are aliens.

In one of the Armageddon's Blade teasers, the goblins were shown having bows in their hands. The reason for that is because the teaser animations were already done and were supposed to show a Forge goblin instead, which used pistols. However, due to fan backlash, they had to change the Forge creatures into "regular" creatures, and so the teaser became somewhat off-topic with ranged Goblins, a Minotaur and an Ogre guarding the Varn Vault where the Armageddon's Blade was kept.
