I'll be running WotBS 4e, starting with Scouring, in a few weeks. The party has a nice background, that brings them TO Gate Pass just as the city closes it's gates, to kick of the published portion of the adventure.
I need one more specific combat encounter for the party, perhaps one that foreshadows the coming of the Ragesian army. The party is not familiar with recent events (Drakus death, etc) until they get to Gate Pass, so I'd like to give them a tease prior to arriving and give them a bit of an 'a hah' moment.
Because of the way I will be running Gate Pass, they will be a little lite on XP for the later encounters, So I am using a few "pre encounters" to help me level the playing field. This foreshadowing encounter is to be the final one before they enter the city.
So, any ideas? Is this making sense?
[Here's one: perhaps they notice they are being followed, it turns out by Ragesian Army scouts, who set an ambush about a day out from the city. Some clue on the scouts tips them off that they are army scouts. Inquisitors would be nice, but they'd over power this L1 team unless they were very nerfed]
