I have a vast horde of GW night goblins and want to build a themed army of slave/subservient goblins who serve under the night goblins.. I figured the easiest and cheapest way to achieve this is to use smaller scale goblins as the slaves! What is the height difference between a 1/72 goblin and a night goblin? Is it a lot? Also how well would 1/72 alliance wargs scale with GW gobbos? Let me know Thanks Austin |

Personally I would not pay much attention to the differences. Just use the fantasy equivalent of pseudohistorical bovine excrement and play on. |

Here is a link to Caesar's 1/72 Goblins. The Dark Alliance Warg Riders are actually Orcs, but they are comparable in size. Once painted, they will pass for Goblins, easily. Here is a photo of them, with a ruler (centimeters):
Here is my blog page discussing them for use in my 2nd Ed. BattleSystem games. Cheers! |

Night Goblins are much beefier by comparison as well. Will try to get a pic for you tonight. |

Don't look past Splintered Lights 20mm gobbos, and I think they're sculpted by Bob Olley, which means they'll be plenty beefy. |

Some of the models in the splintered light range look superb. I'm afraid they'll be too small though. Thanks Austin |

I believe Sean's Wargames Corner will shine some light on the subject!

I went ahead and ordered several boxes. Worst case scenario I will use the gobbos as snotlings and the wargs as unit fillers for my squigs. Will post pics when I get everything Thanks Austin |

Thanks for posting a link to my site Cragglow, reminds me I still haven't painted these. I think for Snotlings you might want to go for the Splintered Light 15mm Goblins I think. I really like all of SLM's stuff. CP Models carries the Bugbear and Lizardman lines now. Something else I've had in the queue for far too long. seanswgcorner.blogspot.com |

No problem Sean! Its a good blog, I think, with great pics! I shoulda grabbed those bugbears from SLM, but another project is still underway so CP will be getting a visit at some point! I almost want to get Bob Olley to sculpt some more of those 20s they are SO good looking! |

Let me know if you do Cragglow. I'd probably go for a kickstarter or something along those lines. |
