Lizardfolk Race, but also Kobolds?

[Winterwolf]

So we know the lizardfolk are going to be coming out, but do you think we'll be getting kobolds as well? If not being able to shrink our lizardfolk down enough to pass for Kobolds?

[MEATSHED]

They'll probally be small enough with swarmkin to pass as them but unfortunately I don't think you'll be able to shrink them enough in faction creation.

Lizardmen with height to minimum and maybe the spawnkin tranformation would do fine I think.

[Winterwolf]

That does involve making one of your first two tomes a chaos one though which makes me a wee bit sad. I like kobolds, would be fun to play as the smoll lizard boyos in such a big scary world of monsters XD

[Winterwolf]

I mean, they already have lizardfolk models, maybe some shrinkage of those and slapping on a new nametag would suffice? lol

But kobolds are hyena-like creatures, right?

No, hyenas are gnolls. Kobolds are tiny draconians without wings.

Sweet! When they do I might finally be able to make my favorite race from EQ, the Iksar.

Thinking of Gnolls my friend. Kobolds are funny small lizard people. A counterpart to Goblins, often at war with goblins.

You can see the pictures in the Expansion Pass page. They also show off the dragon lord we'll be able to play as.. but idk how its going to be balanced lol.

Oh yeah, my bad. Oh I could have mixed the two?

Honestly, I rarely view them among the proposed specie to been added.

But they are not as obscure as, let's say, the races who come out when Frostburn come out (D&D, 3.5):

For someone who have this, somewhat, obscure bonus book, I should had thinked about them.

Kobolds used to be dog-like before being changed to being lizards so you probably thinking of old kobolds.

Most probably.
I remember that they were somewhat between the two (but from where, I don't remember).

Probably like the rest of the game... Not very [balanced].

I mean when one can set a map option like 'Unlimited Power', and combine it with building both a 'spell jammer' and a 'sanctuary' in your cities. You can just spell spam any attacking armies to death, while they can't do anything but watch their armies slowly die, then cry. Because pillaging takes 2 turns, easily enough time to get at least 1 unit to engage them.

Still, I was wondering why there was no lizard race when the game came out. Now I know.

Maybe one of the "beast" forms in Primal Fury will be Kobold-like. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Reptilians with minimal size adjustments + swarmkin.
