"Gnoblars are naturally attracted to the sling, which allows them to enact cruelty at a safe distance."
- —Description of the Gnoblar Flingers in Total War: Warhammer III[1]
A unit of Gnoblar Flingers engage the foe on behalf of their Ogre masters.[1]
The Gnoblar Flingers are a missile infantry unit of Gnoblars often deployed by the armies of the Ogre Kingdoms. They aid Ogre armies by adding a needed amount of ranged combat power, though they are easily overmatched by the enemy's more competent units.[1]
Role[]
Gnoblars are a sub-species of Goblins who are wicked creatures possessed of a malicious but limited cunning. These not-too-distant relatives of the Goblins plague the mortal world and are similar to their Greenskin cousins in height, with most specimens standing little taller than a man's waist.[1]
Gnoblars are cruel-minded, and their ability to do harm is only limited by their lack of physical strength. Ogres tolerate the creatures in their camps, especially if they make themselves useful by carrying and fetching things. In battle, a large group of Gnoblars can be, if not exactly formidable, then at least a bit dangerous.[1]
Gnoblar Flingers are very bad at combat, but they are a lot of very bad, making them excellent and often literal cannon fodder. Gnoblar Flingers have decent range and can be used to deal with unarmoured enemy skirmishers as well as cause pain to light flankers and flyers, allowing Ogre armies to save their own troops to face bigger threats.[1]
