They have pretty high attack for a level 1 unit, and are effective attackers when in numbers. Their speed and growth helps too.
Dracon's special ability is formidable. Even so powerful that he is typically disabled in custom made maps. While you should have no reasonable difficulty using Dracon as a main hero during the single player campaign, he could also be used as an [[enchanter]]-upgrading-support-hero sitting in a town garrison or following your main hero.

He is featured in the [[Dragon Slayer]] campaign from {{ab}}, taking appearance in all four scenarios as the main hero.
{{H|Gretchin|Barbarian}} has goblins as a [[Specialty#Creature_specialties|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.

In the [[Dragon Slayer]] campaign, he managed to slay all kinds of dragons, from [[Faerie Dragon|Faerie Dragons]] to [[Azure Dragon|Azure Dragons]], accomplishing only what veteran [[Dragon|Dragon Slayers]] could.


In the lore itself, the goblins (and hobgoblins) are aliens. Their blood is also green.
According to Jennifer Bullard's development documents, Dracon is the one who finally slayed [[Mutare Drake|Mutare the Dragon Queen]] in one-on-one combat. He didn't survive the battle, but still freed the [[dragons]] from [[Mutare|Mutare's]] influence and was also gonna be remembered as the greatest [[Dragons|Dragon Slayer]] of all time.
 
In one of the {{ab}} 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 1904 Vault]] where the [[Armageddon's Blade (Artifact)|Armageddon's Blade]] was kept.
