A Zhentish agent hires a band of goblin worg-riders to harry rival interests in a given area. For various reasons, these goblins are unusually well-organised and -trained, to the point where a base-grade 'grunt' is a Ftr4 (and the good news only gets better). What sort of pay-rate would such skilled warriors command? Would a hero finding a string of fifty newly-minted silver talons on a gobllin's body think it enough to cover a retainer longer than a tenday?

I just got back into this, okay? Give me time (or better yet money) - I'll catch up soon enough.

Using the Hirleings section of the DMG and using the Mercenary Leader system for your above average grunts

Each 4th level goblin could expect 12sp PER DAY

This is what I get for not reading all of the SRD. Thanks - I'll go and look that up for more details before I make myself look even more foolish.
