Hobhounds (Core units, do not count towards minimum core unit, Must have a Hobgoblin Archer for each unit of Hobhounds)
They are big canine-seeming things with large heads and disproportioned bodies. They are probably actually hyenas who have either been affected by Chaos or have simply been adapted to living much further north than they do in our world. The BeastMaster is an optional upgrade for the unit.

Hobhound 8 3 0 4 3 1 2 1 4
Beast Master 4 3 3 3 3 1 3 1 6
Equipment: The Beastmaster has light armor and a hand weapon, a shield and a hand weapon and is mounted on a giant wolf.
Special Abilities
Relentless Chase: Hobhounds are used to track down enemies within the snowy forests and icy plains of the Hobgoblin's home. They suffer no movement penalties for moving through woods. They suffer penalties for other terrain as nomrla. HobHounds cannot be joined by characters other than their Beast Masters and do not cause Panic tests in friendly units except other HobHounds, although they benefit from the General's Leadership and Battle Standard as normal.
Beast Master: Hobhounds are often led by Beast Masters, warriors mounted on Giant Wolves who guide them towards the foe. The Beast Master is bought as an upgrade in the same way as a unit Champion and is treated as a Champion in all respects, ie, he cannot be singled out as a target for missle weapons, may issue and accept challenges, etc. Note that as long as any HobHounds remain alive, the Beast Master will be restricted to their movement of 8, even though his wolf would nomrlaly be able to move faster. He still benefits from the HobHounds’ Relentless Chase rule.
