Issue 57 of d12 Monthly has landed – and this one’s for those who love a challenging encounter.
This issue gives you over 20 wilderness encounters you can use in your campaign. They are structured to appear in one of many terrain locations, such plains, desert, badlands, forests, woodlands, and many more.
This way, you can easily add them to random encounter tables, or create them as set pieces.
Finally, each encounter has an idea on how to expand it into a larger adventure.
