I'd probably use a small number of drow plus 1 or 2 quaggoths, at least initially. The exact encounters will probably vary, especially as levels increase. I want the idea of letting even the scouts catch up to be pretty terrifying at first, but by the time the PCs are level 3 or 4, they should feel a bit more confident in taking the scouts out to buy more time before they're replaced, worrying more about staying ahead of the main force, which is much easier to do.Is there some special Drow Scout monster that I'm missing? All I meant by scouts is a forward party travelling at a fast pace.Also, how is having some random spiders show up telegraphing a threat? How is that better than scouts?As for the cards, I want there to be a constant visual reminder on the table that the drow are chasing them. It's very little extra work to check/uncheck some boxes.</blockquote>
