The goblin is a creature in Might & Magic: Heroes VI. A Core creature of the Stronghold faction, its upgraded version is the goblin hunter.

Goblins are "degenerate" Orcs, who were originally "failures" in the Orc experiment, born from the blood of lesser demons (mostly Imps). Their fertility being inversely proportional to their physical and intellectual capacities, they have multiplied like rodents. Goblins are small, scraggly, physically weak, but very swift and agile. Devious and cowardly, they rarely attack unless they greatly outnumber their opponents, preferring sneak attacks and (poorly constructed) booby traps. They will usually run away from any show of force. In the Orc armies, Goblins serve as servants, scouts, and skirmishers.OffBck

You don`t fight goblins, you hunt them down. They have no sense of honor, and no proper place on Ashan. The Emperor Connor III, who is famous for calling an end to the Orc Crusades, had initially wanted to exclude goblins from the treaty. He had nearly lost a leg in a Goblin trap, and whenever he had encountered them on the battlefield, he felt there was no glory to be had in besting them.
