Dragon 419 hit, some articles that might be of note: Winning Races: Hobgoblins Pretty amazing racial ability here. Auto-end an effect. Great racial weapon training feat, flails and spears. Constitution, and Intelligence or Charisma. Winning Races: Bladelings Ugh, racial is still 2/4/6 instead of 3/6/9.
This is CharOp. We not only assume block-of-tofu monsters, but also block-of-tofu DMs.

You're already refluffing, what not refluff to something that doesn't suck?

Sounds like Hobgoblins will be a top Battlemind race.

Any themes? Class support of any kind?
Hobgoblin racial weapon training does sound pretty great. The stat spread could work for a Battlemind, though I'm not sure how much they like spears and flails. IIRC, they do like to MC Fighter and thus can pick up some of the nice flail and spear support over there.

The problem is that Tieflings and Half-elves exist.

A race that can get spiked chain and weapon focus for it with a feat.
Hobgoblins get a lot of weapons with flails such as nets, spiked chain, and the cahulaks.

Gouge and Greatspear too. It's a pretty nice combination feat, AND the damage on it scales 2/3/4 unlike Eladrin/Dwarf.

Wow the bladeling feats are disappointing. Spend two feats to make your fists into spiked gauntlets!

I think it's actually nice to see hobgoblin getting INT. Considering all the hob mages I killed in baldur's gate I & II, it makes sense to me :p The weapon feat is also very nice.
