Protection from red; banding (Any creatures with banding, and up to one without, can attack in a band. Bands are blocked as a group. If any creatures with banding you control are blocking or being blocked by a creature, you divide that creature's combat damage, not its controller, among any of the creatures it's being blocked by or is blocking.)
"With a great cry, the goblin host broke and ran as the first wave of knights penetrated its ranks." —Tivadar of Thorn, History of the Goblin Wars
