[QUOTE="Rechan, post: 5744187, member: 54846"] What you could do is have a rigged trap. Some beast(s) disguised cage sits on the side of the road, with a tripwire as the release mechanism. Alternatively there could be jars filled with snakes or a swarm of something, rigged on a tree branch, ready to drop (or in a pit - a jar full of wasps in a 6" deep pit would be a hell of a surprise). Or you could have the above, but the PCs see someone on the King's Road ahead of them about 100 feet trigger the trap. So you have a round or two of the PCs running to the rescue. Later it's quite clear that it was set up by those little buggers (even having the Ranger find kobold tracks). If you want to really get the PCs angry, instead of it being a trap, it's kobolds herding something big and nasty onto the path of the road. They are likely watching from a hill, and when they see people coming, they piss off a bear or boar or something, and simply run across the PCs' path/herd it towards the road, and then run away laughing.
