Encounters: Village Attack

The following three encounters were proposed as an alternative start to the first Scales of War module Rescue at Rivenroar as well.

Encounter 1 - Wake up Call (600xp total)
1 Gray Wolf (Level 2 Skirmisher)
1 Hobgoblin Mercenary (Level 2 Soldier)
4 Goblin Cutter (Level 1 Minion)
2 Goblin Sharpshooter (Level 2 Artillery)

Encounter 2 - Rescue the Guards (900xp total)
2 Hobgoblin Mercenary (Level 2 Soldier)
1 Hobgoblin Warcaster (Level 3 Controller, Leader)
8 Hobgoblin Grunt (Level 3 Minion)
2 Goblin Warrior (Level 1 Skirmisher)

My goal isn't hyper optimisation but rather functional characters that should be fun to play. Each character is presented at the start of each tier of play (1st,11th, and 21st levels), with a short RP statement to give the idea behind the character and some comments on how to use them mechanically.

Encounter Triplets:
