Just this last session of one of my campaigns they completed The Sanctuary of Elwyn the Ardent (from B9: Castle Caldwell and Beyond) before they even took a short rest because they didn't want to give the evil woman mocking them from somewhere unseen any more time to prepare ways to stop them than she had already had.Of course, a very important portion of the "how many encounters?" question is going un-asked: How difficult are those encounters?I tend to favor a larger number of encounters which are themselves not particularly difficult (as was how most of the classic TSR published modules worked out), and let the difficulty build as resources diminish, over trying to make each and every encounter difficult on its own.</blockquote>
