Grimstonefire:

Why not give all Hobgoblins (except hero) a throwing knife (+ hand weapon) as standard? It would also include wolf riders and sneaky gits.

It would be very characterful I think, perhaps bumping up their base cost to 4 pts/model.

You could keep bows as an option, saying ‘Can replace throwing knives with bows for +2 pts/model’

Thoughts?

I like it. That would be a very large improvment to them.

It woud be a good reason to take them. Make them less weak. What about the poisoned attack upgrade ?

But are they better with the knifes than bows on hitting the target.i say axes at 20 paces.
