The human woman's great granddaughters will be having children by the time the elf is done having hers. 5 generations have past and that provides the multiplication factor that gives the humans the edge.Why would they even be around any more? The faster breeding races will go to war with them over space and will win due to numbers. An elven wizard can only fling so many spells before he runs out and is overwhelmed by suicidal shock troops (say 1000 War 6 plus 50 Sorc 1-3 kobolds vs a typical elven village).Another reason kobolds have an advantage is their reptilian nature- they need less food than a mammal of similar size. Personally I would require them 1/6th the daily requirement for a human and also give them penalities for cold weather. But how many wars at that technology level are fought during the cold months? And if they ally with goblins, then there is no time of year best to fight them.</blockquote>
