-Different areas have different encounters-tempos.
-Some push persistent activity at the players, while others will leave them to travel, unimpeded.
-
-The tempo chart lets you roll, and note the next time the players should expect an encounter, and roll again.
-Fast-paced areas might gain a bonus to the roll, while slower areas gain a penalty.
+To find out if you have an encounter, roll on the Tempo Chart, below.
 
 \tempoChart
 
-To come up with some encounters quickly, you can just roll all the dice at once.
-We'll call the first die, the `\textbf{tempo}' die, and we can make a calendar for the group quickly by checking each day with three dice.
+If you need to re-roll, simply add the next result.
+
+Rolling a `2' means the troupe can travel for two days uninterrupted, then roll again.
+If you have to roll again, add the next result.
+
+`3, 3, 5', means 2 days of peace, then 1 encounter.
+Rolling `6, 5, 1, 3' means two encounters at once, then 4 days of peace.
+
+The following example is a complete encounter plan for a troupe, with the \textbf{tempo roll} shown in bold:
 
 \begin{itemize}
-  \item[\textbf{4}, 4, 4]) Day 2 has a bear stalking the party.
-  \item[\textbf{1}]) Day 3 has nothing happening, so we roll again to see what day 7 brings.
-  \item[\textbf{6}, 3, 4]) Day 7 has brings a storm, along with\ldots.
-  \item[5, 1]) 10 bandits attacking the next day!
-  \item[\textbf{5}, 6, 4]) Day 8 brings \iftoggle{aif}{a mouthdigger}{an owlbear}.
+  \item[\textbf{5,2}]) 1 encounter, and 2 days of peace.
+  \begin{itemize}
+    \item[4,2]) 6 bandits ambush the party.
+  \end{itemize}
+  \item[\textbf{3,4}]) day 4 is peaceful, and day 5 has an encounter.
+  \begin{itemize}
+    \item[4,2]) This time, 9 bandits attack.
+  \end{itemize}
+  \item[\textbf{6,4}]) Day 6 has to encounters at the same time.
+  \begin{itemize}
+    \item[6,3]) $1D6+2$ Gnolls.
+    \item[5,3]) $1D6+4$ Brigands.
+  \end{itemize}
 \end{itemize}
 
-They might think they have the beast under control, but the bandits will take the opportunity to launch a surprise attack if they can.
+So on the sixth day, the party find 8 gnolls stalking them, waiting for the right time to attack.
+Hours later, they find 9 bandits laying an ambush for them.
+
+If the party notice the gnolls, they may fight them early.
+If they only notice the bandits, they might think they have an easy fight, but then get ambushed by gnolls in their weakened state a moment later.
+If they notice both, they might be able to reason with the bandits, shouting `hey, we are being stalked, so even if you kill us, you will have another fight on your hands'.
 
-With five rolls, we've just made a full calendar for the next in-game week.
+With seven rolls, we've just made a full calendar for the next in-game week.
 Rolling ahead of time like this can help keep sessions fluid, and for some extra prep, you can always roll up two or three lists of encounters -- one for each area which the \glspl{pc} might move through.
