Big oafs?

Post by Five Minute Lasters »

I've got a problem with my goblins, now my friends might say: told you so (they tried to discourage me from taking a sucky team like goblins). But my problem is not that I lose too much (I do lose too much, but the secret weapons make it up for that 8))

to the point: my problem is that I have a one-match game team which consists of 2 trolls. To get maximum use of them I always place one goblin ''babysitter'' to translate my orders to trollish. But the problem is: I have to keep my trolls next to each other to let them both benefit of the babysitter, but then my opponent can easily walk around them this way. There are 2 solution which are possible (leaving a troll without supervision definitely isn't one of them!):
1. use another goblin to babysit (thus waste a extra goblin) so that they can spread out
2. stop using 2 trolls, only have 1 and some extra money (this definitely will stop me killing some)

which do you recommend?

Reason: ''
learning six languages(!) but still can't communicate with my trolls

Remember that your Goblin only needs to be next to the troll WHEN THE TROLL ACTIVATES. This means that it isn't terribly difficult to have one Goblin "coach" both trolls.

At the beginning of the turn, Goblin is standing next to Troll #1.
1. Troll #1 bashes.
2. Goblin "coach" runs over and stands next to Troll#2.
3. Troll #2 bashes.

Also, this doesn't have to be done with a single goblin - If you have a Troll that has a Goblin "coach", then activate him at the beginning of the turn, then move the goblin somewhere effective. Trolls without a coach next to them at the beginning of the turn - move them at the end, moving a goblin to them during the turn. There's almost always SOME goblin that isn't really accomplishing anything during the turn that can be used to run over and advise the Troll.
