Grom the paunch, question with scrap and goblin bonuses

[Vold]

so, i have those night goblins, but i feel like they arent much better than the goblins, grom gives 10% more damage reduction to all of them, plus he can give them 400% more missile armor piercing, i would like to know, in groms case (since apparently skarsnik makes night goblins op) what is better if i wanna do an all goblin army?

For Grom sse Goblins, Nasty Skulkers and Goblin Archers since those are the ones affected by his bonuses.

Leave the Night Goblins to Skarsnik.

SO the goblins are actually better? well damn

[chronobomb]

Night Goblins and Goblins aren't actually the same race. So a lot of Grom's buffs don't work for them

[Threetails]

Yeah honestly I’ve always thought that Skarsniks buffs for night goblins were kinda weak.

[lPaladinl]

I find it a shame that Night Goblins aren't included under Grom, but to be fair Skarsnik is already their big boss.

Use goblins for Gromm and the shamans, night goblins for Skarsnik and the goblin warlords.

Why shamans tho? Any reason? I am SUPER new to the green boys as in hands on gameplay

With Grom, you need like some goblin spears, goblin poison archers, a couple of rogue idols to hold the frontline, a couple of goblin catapults with rogue idol RoR, and some squids.

Cook foods around this build, and you will end up having the best Greenskin doom stack in the game, totally unstoppable.

Esp if you cook physical resistances food for the goblins and rogue idols, combined with regention for goblins, plus with anti-infantry archers or anti-large, depends on who you are fighting.

Ta-dah, you ended up with goblins that can take it toe to toe with a chosen.

Edit: Yeah and i forgot, 1 shaman spell caster, the foot ability is just too damn goooooood.

[Jerroser]

Normally the Night Goblins would be better, but Grom's bonuses only work on the regular goblins and with the right skills maxed out he can buff them to such an insane degree that they are practically on par with if not better than Orc Biggn's.

Great Goblin Shamans are great for Arachnarok Spider Shrines

Goblin shamans are great for itchy nuisance (This is a huge debuff that just let your goblins over run many troops with the cauldron and scrap mechanic added in).

Orc Shamans are great for Foot of Gork. Just deletes units from the game. Especially on smaller unit sizes.

Just played Grom. Gosh, he's boring... too OP. T1 units buffed to insanity. I mean sure they can't beat dragons later on but that's what the Rogue Idols and Araknarok Spiders are for... And I might be wrong but I'm pretty sure Black Orcs can be specced with scrap upgrades into anti-large as well.
