Encounters Series 1: Bandit Ambush (d20)
A single session combat encounter suitable for four characters of 3rd-5th level using the d20 v3.5 ruleset. The trade road is long¸ and the moors are desolate. A few disparate bandits lurk around the area¸ waiting for merchant caravans carrying valuables to pass by - but when the adventuring company passes by¸ they cannot help but wonder what magical treasures they might carry... It happens to every GM sooner or later - the players pick up on an irrelevant detail and follow it like a plot hook¸ or unexpectedly reveal the villain's secret identity too early¸ or get a hostage killed that they really should have rescued; suddenly¸ the plot is up in the air¸ and even the best GM needs some breathing space to work out where to go next. So¸ let CORVUS LUNARIS™ take up the slack! When you need something to fill in a session; add a little extra¸ dangerous flavour to spice up the game; or just want to relax for a while and leave the next session's preparations to someone else¸ look for CORVUS LUNARIS™'s ‘Encounters' series. Designed to take up around 3-5 hours of gaming¸ with options to draw it our longer if required¸ these encounters are fully comprehensive - complete with tactics for combat¸ suggestions for inserting them into your campaign¸ a breakdown of the aftermath of the encounter including notes on possible plot hooks if you¸ as GM¸ want them¸ and a ready-to-print scale battlegrid for miniatures combat!
