There is nothing wrong with Athas bringing you to the brink of death every time, either. There should just be a reason for it.

A fun trick is to have an event cause supplies to be used up. For example, a bunch of minion silt runners run at the PCs, and instead of attacking they grab a survival day off of them. PCs can either attack or (more effective) use skills to stop theft. X rounds of this, and at the end the PCs are left with some (smaller) number of survival days that makes the voyage very difficult. Sandstorms can turn supplies into sand. Extreme heat can unexpectedly double consumption. Getting lost or circumventing a threat they spot can extend the trip. Etc.
I love it. I will be using the Silt runner minions in my next game. thanks for the great ideas.
