==In the RPG==
The shredder is an impressive goblin mechanical creature which is usually piloted by a goblin. Shredders are used for lumbering, but they can serve in war because of the solid metal construction of the machine and the great saws they wield.
The first machine designed to mimic the humanoid form, goblin shredders use the steamsaws attached to their arms to cut down lumber at an incredible rate that is unmatched by peasant work crews. It moves at 10 miles per hour and has a crew of 1 usually designed for goblin-sized creatures, though larger version have been built).More Magic and Mayhem, pg. 186Magic & Mayhem, pg. 187-188
This invention allows a single goblin to do as much harvesting as ten field hands.Warcraft: The Roleplaying Game, pg. 182
Another goblin invention, called a "mechanical planter", does the opposite of the shredder; it plants new trees.
