Added 4 new random encounters; some are a little mean. The Shadowlands are a little more dangerous now. Be careful out there!

I found one of them new ones and after 114 levels it's first time I got infamy. They ARE mean ;D Great job, but I'm kinda scared what other 3 may look like  |

Ran by something cute and tainted. Too bad I had to Jade Strike it to bits.  I think I'll be needing moar Jade and Slander for these random encounters. |

I don't know if it is one of the new ones, but I recently had to make a cruel choice on the battlefields.

 got Deadly ground again... Jay could you explain how Random encounters work? I mean for example - I was hanging around NWK hoping to master random encounter "clear shot", but if it has same probability as deadly ground, then I'll think about it twice. How often do they pop up - is counted by my fate or is it real time cooldown before next random encounter? Are odds of various encounters equal or varied?

Shinji-san, if Jay-sama answered your question, that would defeat the purpose of them being "random."

Nah, if I know that Deadly Ground is just as probable as Clear Shot, would that make them less random?  But of course if Jay want's it to remain secred I'm cool with that. |

A note on the Deadly Ground encounter: by my math, it's only possible to choose each of the middle three choices three times a piece since it's only possible to acquire three allies of each of the families (unless there are other ways to acquire them)...
Rough! (But it's cool to know that Jay reads our stuff! ^_^)

Now, not having done one of these encounters yet myself, are they subject to the standard job progression? (ie. 10 clicks for gold, etc.) If so, then they're impossible to master (in the foreseeable future, at least)... or are they 3 or 1 click jobs? |

Well it's not normal job you're "supposed" to master. I think it's pretty damn genius, a real hard choice (if only it would be rare... :/ ), very in spirit of L5R. You're sacrificing your friend, or yourself.
