Many might agree that urban encounters have the potential to be really neat combat experiences. Mainly due to the environment, politics, people, and other stuff. Outdoor encounters seem bland in comparison, especially when the encounter is in the middle of a field. So, what kind of interesting encounters could you throw at a party, which is in a very bland locale (such as an open field or sparse forest). Keep it around CR 4.
Some things to consider:
- How could you augment the surroundings so that seldom used skills/saves are needed?
- How can you, without heavy use of magic, require the players to use all three save types?
- What type of foes would fit in the surroundings?
- Other than the foes, what other dangers can you throw at them?
