No sooner than the Circle announces rules for kobolds in Living Greyhawk, the campaign goes on life support.

Coincidence, I think not.

Clearly, it was the usual evil sort of kobolds, setting traps as the campaign approached a way to Deal With Them.

Sarcasm sense, tingling. Must conjure witty response!

Nonono, it was the snow elves, they just made it look like the kobolds. Those sneaky elvses and their evil gnome allies, always keeping the little kobolds down!

Everyone is always making fun of kobolds... calling them weak, irrelevant, even (gasp) comical. Hardly the way a self-respecting monster wants to be treated. The kobolds must have prayed to their gods (gods not being weak, by definition) to bring retribution down upon the campaign world. Alas, kobolds are not very smart, and now they are so screwed too.

Anybody notice all the kobolds who can't get into the city of Greyhawk walking in front of the gates holding "The world is coming to an end!" signs?

The best thing to ever happen to a Kobold Village? Circle of Death.

Obviously the circle knew LG was coming to an end before they released the dirty little mongrels into the campaign. My only assumption is that they completely intended for kobolds to ruin the game!

Well...I'd normally have some choice words for Sieylianna, because I don't quite like his additude. At all. But, because these boards are modded, I'll tell you that we KOBOLD PLAYERS didn't ruin this campaign. If anything, your bull-headed, short-sighted, racist opinions did. But...that's just what I think. :)

It's obviously a conspiracy to prevent any kobold PCs from reaching retirement. Because, you know.. if a kobold PC reached retirement it'd prove they're on par with the other PC races. And we can't have that.

It may actually be possible for a new player to LG, that has only played barely enough C596/597 mods to get a Kobold card to retirement by the end.

I'm more curious about the snow elves then anything. What the heck was up with that card? It's like casting Power Word: Suck on the campaign. ;P

(Teasing there)

We kobolds will never get to 16th level and retire! Noooooo! But I was going to retire into the Shield Lands as a Knight of the Lady!! :weep:

I am going to get my kobold as high as possible before LG retires. I guesstimate approximately level 8.

And it wasn't the kobolds. It was the VICIOUS, GENOCIDAL GNOMES!

bah .. wasnt the gnomes if they were invovled there would ne no kobolds left

With adaptables you should be able to get higher than 8. Retiring a kobld will however take some effort.

FR manages to be stupid without being fun.

I regularly criticised LG for being a bit staid and medieval focussed but FR is just random.

Is it possible to make a 4E Kobold or is it part of the LG card set. If so are all the cards going to be come invalid once Living Greyhawk, Xendrich, ect... come to their respective ends. I hope the rewards program continues.

I don't think it's public knowledge whether 4e kobold PCs will be possible, but I'm guessing yes. Making them in an RPGA campaign is another question entirely.

The cards will be valid in future campaigns that say they are valid. Much as Xen'drik allowed all of the Mark of Heroes cards, and both LG and Xen'drik allow a fraction of each others cards to be usable, you can probably expect some of the older cards to be explicitly allowed in the next campaigns that come along.. guessing which ones is pure speculation though at this point.

I have read in one post in the 4e threads that the races might have different names for flavor but will have the same stats etc. I would have to go dig for that quote for you though. It specifically referenced the Dwarves

Kobolds ate my ARs.

Kobolds destroyed my region.

Kobolds invented Living Forgotten Realms.

Hey....can I play a kobold or a goblin in Living Forgotten Realms? :D

Hey...

A number of folks at one point in back in LC got to adopt goblin orphan children.

The little buggers would be adventuring age about now, wouldn't they?

Sun elf = grey elf
Moon elf = elf
one of the others = wood elf I think

wonder if the last one is snow elf.

It's all the same with different packaging.

How come my dwarves and humans are stuck with all the same racial adjustments. Stupid elves. (and halflings...ok we've had tallfellows and stouts forever, but still. Why do they get the elvish and dwarvish cheese just for being short?)

Funny you should ask that:

You can make level 8 THIS year. Leaving 8 months of unlimited TU play should conceivably get you close to retirement...if there are enough mods out there.

There are enough modules, if you don't have to work for a living and yet can afford to travel to a lot of regions for about 3 months.

I think I worked out that one convention a weekend would get a character from first to retirement in about 3 months (it was in an argument about whether we needed time units).

If you look at Warhorn, there is a convention nearly every weekend somewhere....

Sadly I have to work for a living. And also have far too many characters....so I will shoot for more modest goals.
