Sorry, but this race is underbalanced in my opinion. Compare this class to a Bugbear and I think you'll agree with me.

The difference is that bugbears are monsters first and PC races second. They have 3 hitdice because they have 3 hitdice, and that's their major drawback. They should probably be a +0 race with those three hitdice... but WoTC has never given crappy hitdice enough weight in my opinion.

Goliaths, on the other hand, have been designed as a PC race, and therefor were not given racial hitdice. If you compare the two and ignore the racial hitdice on the bugbear, the comparison is pretty close.
