They could win..... Wouldn't that be an interesting twist.
or...
Something struck me in reading through the OD&D TotF the other day. The line was "This is the island of the frog people, who have been bred by the new rulers of the Temple of the Frog to supply a more powerful force with which to subdue the world." (p45)
I immediately thought of Saruman and his breeding of thousands of Uruk-hai.
Seems likely Stephen would have found some way to step up his breeding program in the face of an Afridhi threat, and maybe found a way to arm them with laser rifles and such. I'm thinking the Afridhi might be in for a big surprise.
One also wonders if the Egg would sit idly by while someone else marches over Blackmoor.
