What I learned PDQ in GMing Kalisz was to roll up a bunch of random encounters ahead of time (2 or 3 for hill terrain, some for woods, roads, etc.). Jot down the cargo loads in wagons/trucks, who's got heavy weapons, etc. If you don't use 'em all, keep them around for later. My group started finding derelict American vehicles, but couldn't keep them running for long. I did let them have an M1, but boy, did I make them work for fuel! I don't think they ever found any main-gun ammo.
Jeez, I wish I'd known about that dam! My original group would have gone for that in a heartbeat!
