Year 1, with world gen set to 'VERY HIGH CIVILISATIONS'.

Years 1-5: The only time you'll most likely ever see kobolds. Although there is a lack of named creatures, werebeasts and a fuckload of FBs still wandering the earth.

In a curious side-note on steel, I've been getting ambushed by kobolds firing steel arrows, which can sting let me tell you. But that's not what I find curious. What I find curious is that kobolds don't make their own gear, they steal it. But dwarfs are the only civ with access to steel. But dwarfs cannot make arrows. So.... where are the kobolds stealing these arrows from? Hmmmmm?

That is a wasteful idea that recklessly endangers life. I applaud your genius!
There are as many ways to play the game as there are socks on a battlefield.
