Topic: Goblin vs. kobold size

[pawsplay]

Core Law says kobolds are the smallest of the goblinoids, and live in a state of being constantly cowed by goblins.

Goblin
Weight, male 35
Weight, female 31
Height, male 3'
Height, female, 2'10"

Kobold
Weight, male 44
Weight, female 40
Height, male 3'6"
Height, female, 3'3"

What is up with these numbers?

Hmm, I did not notice it, but goblins shrank from previous editions that had them 3'6"-4'6". Possibly that was to keep them from being on the cusp of size Small, but the others didn't get adjusted. Kobolds have a lower St modifier though.

Goblin clogs might also give them an edge.

Can you reverse the numbers?

Well, but who is more muscular?

I feel pretty good about reversing the numbers.
