Portraits

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}

Others

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

Heroes with a specialty

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.

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

-== Trivia ==
-In the lore itself, the goblins (and hobgoblins) are aliens. Their blood is also green.
-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 so-called [[Varn 1904 Vault]] where the [[Armageddon's Blade (Artifact)|Armageddon's Blade]] was kept.
-Their Forge equivalent was going to be called Grunt and its upgrade Foot Soldier, being a level 1 troop.
