There as been other topics, one just below this one that wants it on horses.

I would also say horses should change, a diffrent name is no problem, we already have diffrent unit names and with a simple "mount" text in the desc its enough and the feeling of the game would be better when playing it.


Now the Main point of this topic, what i propose is the change of Orc Soldier names

Kobolts Cohort - Kobolts arent even the same race, so beyond name issue, 

Change proposed: Goblin Cannonfodder (or likewise goblin)

Clan Guardsmen - what is orc about that? Goblin Spearmen is alot better


Fang - Orc Grunt

Fist - Orc Warrior?


Clan Guards - Goblin Git (or other goblin)

Death Dealers - ok enough unless you have a better idea


Wolfriders and Deathpack, good enough Warg might be something to have in mind, but they are good.

Goblings are not same race either as orcs.. atleast not in illyriad. So I would use more orc name than goblin. Kobolds are separate race too..  

Since there are goblin faction (and Kobold faction) using those names is not so good idea. Since I would presume they will get some units too in some point.

you seen our diplo units? they are all goblins already... so i dont see how that information is correct

Goblin Spie
Goblin Cutpurses
Goblin Saboteurs

and since they already use Kobolts as soldiers your argument is void :P


Greenskins For the Horde!

So it said here.. but well there is already a kobold cohort too.. as unit. 

Goblin faction
http://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/#/Alliance/Faction/67
Kobold faction

They say there is goblin slaves though so maybe those diplomats are those.. or maybe the names need some redoing anyhow.
