The patrol was the 1-shot group going for 3 encounters taking one night.  They fought bravely and one did run away in the end when all was lost to report to the local lord.  The players from the main group now had a reason to hate the BBEG and liked how it tied to that group.  They also found out a bit of power and tactics that they could use when the other group fought him.  All in all they liked it and found the tie-in something worth doing again.</blockquote>
