The Slayer's Guide to Hobgoblins is the first in a series of invaluable source books for players and Games Masters alike. Fully compatible with Dungeons and Dragons 3rd Edition and released under the D20 System and Open Game Licences, it provides a wealth of original material that will add tremendous value to any gaming session.
A third-party sourcebook on hobgoblins for D&D 3rd Edition. The book provides a fairly detailed treatment of hobgoblin culture, behavior, and tactics, as well as a solid hobgoblin fortress for adventurers to deal with. However, much like other books in the Slayer's Guide series, this doesn't innovate very much, and the treatment ultimately remains very close to the D&D core hobgoblin. The book also seems particularly light on new rules options, even compared to other Slayer's Guides; there's only a basic hobgoblin PC writeup, two hobgoblin spells, and some generic hobgoblin NPCs.
