 Welcome to Goblins.
-Goblins were added because they are one of the consistently most popular monsters in D&D style fantasy games. I placed them as the 'battle ready nuisance' that sits in order between kobolds and orcs; Kobolds are a bit easier than goblins, currently, and that is a D&D trope. You'd rather fight a kobold than a goblin.
+Goblins were added because they are one of the consistently most popular monsters in D&D style fantasy games.

You'd rather fight a kobold than a goblin.
-Kobolds are more like cowardly bandits, they're stronger in groups. Goblins are dangerous alone or in pairs because they are driven to their cause, possibly by devotion to a sort of goblin-king type figure. I am considering making goblins a bit weaker -- more like a labyrynth goblin. Currently the 'labyrynth golbin' is essentially a Croky monster.

-If you see a Goblin early on, make sure you have come prepared!
+I am considering making goblins a bit weaker -- more like a labyrynth goblin. Nethack seems to follow this idea of a weaker goblin too. Currently the 'labyrynth golbin' is essentially a Croky monster. But for now, if you see a Goblin early on, make sure you have come prepared!
