I don't mean the usual ones that have 10-20 results. Tomb had 90 different encounters for the main jungle section in a well organised table. Here's half of it to give an example.[ATTACH=full]127540[/ATTACH]Each entry included the creatures attitude/intentions, some flavour text and any relevant DCs that were likely to come up. A good number of them weren't automatic combat, which was also nice.Both Descent into Avernus and Rime of the Frostmaiden expect the players to spend a lot of time in the wilderness, be it hell or Icewind Dale, but give either give no encounters in Avernus's case, or a 20 encounter table for Rime. I understand it takes up page count and Rime is already stuffed, but if you expect the players to spend a long time exploring you need to give them an encounter table that won't run out.</blockquote>
