Random Encounters/Side Quests

Other than some formatting issues, the only problem I see is that it somewhat unbalances the game in the heroes' favor. While that may be preferable in a solo game, with a few tweaks for the zombie players it could work well in any game.

Thanks for checking it out!

I figured it could unbalance the game for sure, but for either the Heroes or the Zombie, depending on how the Encounters are used. If the Heroes need to complete so many before being able to complete a scenario, it could distract them from their main mission, thus potentially making it a favor the Zombie side. (also dependent of how the player rolls for the outcomes). That is kind of my intention for my solo play, without adding anything to the Zombie side.

However, it definitely could unbalance it for a 2+ player game for sure!

What tweaks do you think could be made them work for the Zombie player as well?

I'm always open to feedback on any of my variant ideas!
