Squig Herders will probably get a squig mount, they use them for everything else might as well use them for something lore related.

As for other goblins, best they use wolves as its the generic mount, Spiders are from the tribal goblins of the south thus its a bit of a debatable issue, especially since one class (gobbo shaman) will benefit from the spider so its really not worth for Mythic to bother.

By your logic it would also just be Shamans who ride wolves.

Gobs should be able to hitch a ride off a snotling pump wagon. Haha, that would be a fun ride too :)

Yes, i think thats what he meant. :rolleyes:

But i think Mythic said something about traveling from area to area. (such as the flying in WoW) That is where the catapults and Doom Divas come in. :D

I agree with the mounts being spiders... that would be so cool!

Spiders been a mount would be cool. Wolves would fit in too. I like spiders better! At least if you get eaten by a spider you cant feel it. The doom diver idea is kick butt too, but... how do ya land? Thinking of that. You cant even land when thrown from a catapult. 0.o -till you go splat that is.

Well, it seems like it been settled that gobbos will be riding wolves, although I hope beyond hope they let the squig herders ride squigs.

gobbos should ride orks...thats the only use they have

You must try and land on an opponent which makes them take a whole lot of dmg. If you miss you take that dmg.

Nah, just lots of praying and lots of bounce. Make sure you land head first, its the hardest part.

Orcs on Boars

Gobbos Shamans on Wolves or Spiders.

and Gobbo Squig Herders, on Squigs, Wolves of Squigs

Seriously, do you think a wolf can handle an Orc?

wolves handle orcs fine in WoW..LOL!

yeah, you're probably right on the boars tho...they make perfect sense.

Well, that is Warcraft, not Warhammer. In Warhammer, the orcs (whom I may remind are alot bigger and heavier than the orcs from Warcraft) ride massive wild boars.

http://uk.games-workshop.com/orcsandgoblins/miniature-gallery/14/

Only forest goblins ride spiders, so the shaman should get a wolf mount.

id like to see orcs and gobbos have a special interaction and be able to jump onto each other backs, preferably a gobbo buddy sittin on my shoulder and goin along for teh ride, maybe even being able to attack from my shoulder lol. although the hilarity of a orc on a gobbo shoulder would be amazing XD

Since Goblins are supposed to be the smart ones of the Greenskin race i would perfer some sort of mechanical mount. Not like the metal gnome mount in WoW but something simple made of rotted wood and rope. Like a platform with two trunks or bundles of hay for legs and a series of pulleys. The Gobbo sits on the platform with a rope in each hand and pulls moves each leg himself. Or mabey powered by a hamster in a wheel. The platform would be big enough so other gobbos and orcs without mounts could hitch a ride or stack their dead stunties for eating later. (For a price of course.)

Too complicated for a goblin to invent. They aren't that smart. The only reason any greenskin machinery works at all is due to their WAAAAAGH! energy keeping it up.

Yeah, these aren't the scientific goblins of WoW, WH goblins are slightly clever but mostly suicidal.

Accipiter
04-10-2007, 02:17 PM
Gobboz will probably get wolves since there is a reference in one of the videos to a "wolf mount."

Still, I wish it was going to be spiders....which are creepier, less pervasive in other games, and more original. Oh well, maybe they'll give us the option to choose between wolves and spiders.

Okrot
04-10-2007, 02:21 PM
I'll be making a goblin shaman and I was hopeing for a spider mount too. Give the wolves to the dwarfs, I feel bad for them and their lack of mount .........wait no I dont!!!!!!!

I really hope there aren't spiders. I'm pretty arachniphobic, and I know I'm not alone on that, and it seems like almost every medieval fantasy game just HAS to have giant spiders. Like, Zelda for the N64, what was it, orania of time? I had to have a friend beat the first level for me because I couldn't stand all those spiders. Can we please, please not have giant spiders in this one? I know there are plenty other people that are arachniphobic out there and probably share my setiment.

The Boss in 64 when you looook back at Zelda was cake.

use the slignshot and you could do it flawlessly with no eggs hatching.

Anyway.

Spiders :!::!::!::!:

ok first it was the ocarina of time. secondly just becuase one person doesnt want spiders doesnt mean those who (there are alot) should be deprived of them

Farore
04-22-2007, 03:25 AM
As a wannabe goblin shaman i can say quite comfortably, a selection between either the spider or wolf would be awesome (possibly clan relation type thing, or speed?). Having both in the game wouldn't be tough to implement for Mythic (after watching the different animation sets they can assign mobs in that moobiiiee), and would add a crapload of diversity into it.. this 1 mount unique to 1 race crap.. pfft... why not have both!

eem, so it would be a good therapy for your fear, wouldn't it?

i personally would love to see gobbos riding on spiders!

Well it's been said before but...WOLVES ARE SO LAME! I mean, come on. PLEASE PLEASE Mythic make something more original than that. Spiders in my opinion is a lot more creative than wolves and would add more to the experiance. So my vote is for Spiders.

Goblins in Warhammer have always been riding wolves, and spiders are only written by the more primitive Forest Goblins.

This would be AWESOME for sieges I think. Especially a fun thing to have when you unlocked a capital to attack, have you be able to fly doomdivers or launch orcs into the city and try to smash people :) Now that would be fun!

05-09-2007, 05:17 AM
I will probably lead to this:

Orcs: Boars

Goblins: Wolves (Squig Hunters might be able to summon a Squiq-mount)


extras: maybe some rare mounts can drop from time to time: Spiders, Boars etc.

I would love to have my Goblin Shaman on a Boar. frikkin awesome.

maybe going and getting your own mount...so if a dwarf wants to choose between an ox a bear or a cart he can!
