A 5E Monster Book of Goblins, Orcs & the Classic Horde
Ultimate Bestiary: Revenge of the Horde is a 5E D&D monster sourcebook focused on the classic monstrous races, compatible with the 2014 and 2024 rules. This is the instant-download digital edition.
Unleash the horde! This is not another A-to-Z of monsters. Each chapter takes one creature type — gnolls, goblins, kobolds, orcs, trolls, and their kin — and goes deep, opening with detailed material on that people's culture, environment, attitudes, and how they live, before presenting a wide range of stat blocks so you are never running the same creature twice.
What Each Chapter Gives You
Every chapter opens with the lore and ecology of its creature type, then supplies the tools to actually run them at the table. Encounter group tables let you roll a ready-made warband or pick one to suit your party, with the challenge ratings already added together so you can see at a glance what the group is worth. Loot drop tables tell you what the creatures are carrying when the fight ends, so treasure comes out of the encounter rather than out of thin air.
Stat blocks span the full range of challenge levels, from the first goblin a level one party stumbles into up to threats that test a late-campaign group, each with its own artwork.
Why the PDF
Search for a stat block mid-combat instead of thumbing through an index, keep the whole bestiary on a laptop or tablet behind the screen, and load the artwork straight into a virtual tabletop.

Very useful. I'm converting ssome older modules to 5e. This product contains lots of useful options.
This has been a great enhancement for my basic monsters, to give some flair to my encounters.
While I prefer Nord Games' other ultimate bestiary, the dreaded accursed, this one also has a lot to like. Once again filled with great art and useful maps, however I do find the monster statblocks to be a bit uninspired. Plus there are barely any creatures above a CR of 5, which is somewhat understandable considering the subject, but I still wish there was a little more of a wider range there.
