Seeing as I only have 4 PCs (dragonborn warlord, tiefling fey warlock, human fighter and human 2-weapon ranger), I decided to reduce later encounters to bring them closer to the XP value of the PCs (400 for a Level 1 encounter). In the Kobold Ambush, I'd have removed one of the two dragonshields across the road. Outside the lair, 3 minions will be removed. Inside the lair, I'll remove two minions and one skirmisher (the ones in the middle) from the first wave, and a dragonshield from the second wave.
Sidenote: keeping track of all the shifty shifting of the kobolds in a pain in the @**!
Interesting. My 4-player group pulverized up to Irontooth (fighter, warlord, rogue, ranger). Irontooth actually got one swing and died before his next attack. The kobold that did the most damage was the wyrmpriest, actually.
