0007025: Kobold civilizations have low life expectency
So usually by year 117 majority(sometimes with luck one civilization somehow survives) of kobold civilizations have been wiped out because:

1) Megabeast attacks them and kills them all, nobody escapes

2) Final kobold has finally died of old age

3) Kobolds don't seem to breed fast enough. Sometimes only one couple breeds while all other kobolds do nothing for their short lives.

This means that if you want to have kobolds in adventure mode or fortress mode, you have to start earlier than year 80 or so when usually they start dying out from old age.
