    Night Goblins 2k thoughts?

    So after 2500 points of assembled chaos marines i kinda want a second army but i would like a fantasy list. I had an orc and goblin army years ago and am considering making another one. He's a 2k point list i threw together. For 2500 points, add 2 giants and give each shaman a power stone. Thoughts?

    Night Goblin Shaman x5-425
    -level 2

    29 Night Goblins x5-1185
    -spears and shields, full command, netters, 3 fanatics

    Squig Herd x3-390
    -14 squigs, 6 herders

    recap: 168 Night Goblins (including 5 level 2 shamans), 15 fanatics and 42 squigs

    total: 2000

    You'd better hope that you never need to take a Leadership test. You only have Ld5 across the board. You also can't duplicate power stones. Also, the Lore of Little Waaagh only has 7 spells(including sig spell), so you can drop a couple Shamans since you really don't need that many multiples of the sig spell. Drop the Goblin Champions. 10pts is terrible for another WS2 S3 attack.

    Look into at least one Warboss to be the general and a Bigboss with the BSB to keep your guys in line.

    I'd drop a couple of Night Goblin units into order to get more hitty stuff.

    Squig Herds are best with about 30 squigs and at least 10ish handlers in horde formation.

    Look into squig hoppers with a Bigboss on Great Cave Squig for bouncy fun.

    Get Mangler Squigs. They mess things up good.

    O&G Artillery is maned by Goblins. Doom Divers are fantastic and Spear Chukkas are at least cheap. Lobbas are ok too.

    Common Trolls(not river or stone) are fantastic for their points and fluffy for NGs since they hang out in caves too. Stone Trolls are fluffy too, but the upgrade is not worth it's points.

    GW does not hate non-Space Marine armies. They just don't give a FAQ.
