If you’ve a preference for other of the other available Goblins then you can tweak your starting lineup accordingly. Your extra numbers and two great fouling options in the Looney and ‘Ooligan should help prevent you getting outnumbered. That gives you an extra 2 substitutes to deal with the likely injuries (against teams like Dwarves) or for fouling against more expensive but less Block / Tackle teams (like Elves). You get three rerolls and 15 total players, two of which have Secret Weapon (the Looney and Fanatic). This is an example of how I would probably start the team. They do also have Secret Weapon so you need to plan on losing them, they are however pretty cheap. Against low agility teams that group up (like Dwarfs) then like the Fanatic it can cause a lot of disruption. If you’re playing against a lot of high agility teams then you can expect the bomb to get caught and thrown back (though it can still just explode half the time in the hands of the player who caught it). Lastly you have the Bomma who I think will be a bit more dependent on the other teams in your meta. There is also the Doom Diver who can make a Throw Team Mate touchdown that bit easier.

They can also get out of tight spots easier but with Dodge and Stunty a normal Goblin at nearly half the price is already fairly slippery. There are two more players without Secret Weapon and that is firstly the Pogoer, they are the most expensive of the Goblins and offer a bit extra movement. Get Sneaky Git on them and you can do hit and run fouling. They are going to get sent off but they are also very cheap, hopefully you can do some damage before the referee decides their time is up. A turnover isn’t caused if they end up hitting themselves and falling over. The Chainsaw Looney is one of the most iconic players in Blood Bowl and they’ve also had some slight benefits in the new rules. They also don’t have Secret weapon so you aren’t automatically going to lose them and Disturbing Presence can be a useful addition. ‘Ooligans are the easiest way to get a Dirty Player on your team. I’m a big fan of the Fanatic (Ball & Chain) as strength seven is hard to deal with and for slow teams like Dwarves to move a cage by. Given the outline above only has eleven players you will want to include some more, even if they are basic Goblins, as they are fragile and you may also get some sent off. Bribes are handy for either getting another drive from one of your Secret Weapon players, or to help in the fouling game.

Bribes are 50k as an inducement for Goblin teams, though don’t forget that not all your opponents will have spent their full budget either. This leaves you 230k to play with, or to save for inducements. You don’t really need to worry so much about an Apothecary, Goblins are pretty expendable and cheap, the Trolls have some built in protection in the form of Regeneration. The Trolls have had a slight price increase but they are slightly more reliable now when it comes to using rerolls and they’ve got the Projectile Vomit skill as well. Just as I did the last time I wrote up on Goblin starting rosters back in 2011, this is an outline of the bare minimum I would look to take then try and tailor it from there to your preferences.

QTYīall & Chain, No Hands, Secret Weapon, Stuntyĭirty Player (+1), Disturbing Presence, Dodge, Right Stuff, StuntyĪlways Hungry, Loner (3+), Mighty Blow (+1), Projectile Vomit, Really Stupid, Regeneration, Throw Team Mateīadlands Brawl, Bribery and Corruption, Underworld Challenge

As the rules stand today there are a lot less options for Star Players to take via inducements than there were before, however this will probably change over time. They have lots of different secret weapon players you can take, most of the players are really cheap and you can also consider the option of not spending all your budget in the hope to pick up some cheap bribes via inducements. Goblin starting rosters are probably one of the most varied you could try to deal with.
