Purchase the Goblins Faction on Forgefire!
Goblins bring chaos, insanity, silliness... in a semi-controlled way. Goblins use coin flips to... wait, no, don't go to another faction, listen! They have ways of manipulating their coin flips, and many times either result is good. You don't get to be the boss of a mob of insane pyromaniacs without some level of control...
Goblins are from the Smash Up Goblins set and do not have a Titan card.
Complexity Level: Medium-High
Mechanics
- Coin Flips
Goblins have a lot of cards that have you play heads or tails in order to determine their outcome, making this a seemingly very random faction to play with. Overall, both heads and tails results can be desirable. Heads tend to give you the better outcomes, most often +1 power counters. On the other hand, tails give you good or bad outcomes depending on the card--bad most often being the card doing nothing at all.
To mitigate that randomness, Goblins provide you with Diviners and Make Your Own Luck, a total of four cards you can use to change the result of a coin you're flipping if you don't get what you want.
Finally, Chaos Lord and Goblin Recruiters are two cards that trigger on you flipping coins, giving you additional effects on both heads and tails results, making good outcomes even better or balancing a bad outcome.
