Greetings all,

Im just wondering what size bases the classic hobgoblin minis came on as I have some classic black orc models (25mm) and some current Night goblins (20mm) and Im trying to work out which are the most appropriate to use for hobbos?

many thanks in advance

:cheers

Many thanks guys, its a bit of a bind now as I have to squeeze all my orcs on to 20mm bases, lol, not an easy task.

Thanks again for the prompt info

Unless you are converting your orcs to hobbos then the orcs would stay on 25mm bases. Traditionally hobbos have been between Orc and goblin size.

Night Goblin models are a better fit fit for Hobgoblins in every sense. In terms of size, stats and fluff, they work way better as stand-ins than Black Orcs.

Thanks for the advice Tommy,

I have plenty of spare Night Goblins and some random Gnoblars that i think I will use as Hobgoblins for now while I think what to do with the orcs...I just love the classic black orc models so i will have to use them for something eventually.

:cheers
