Default v2.2 Encounter Generator (JavaScript/JQuery)

I was tinkering with rules and got frustrated with the amount of page-flipping involved in rolling up a bunch of encounters. The only logical course of action was to write a random encounter generator:

http://www.de-fenestra.com/t2k/encou...or_strict.html

This should be fully aligned with v2.2 rules as published. Please report any bugs. Idiosyncratic phrasing will not be considered a bug - I'm not obsessive enough to write conditional grammar-parsing code for a project like this.

Permission is granted to download and use locally, mirror/re-host, and tweak the code as you see fit. Please provide credit.

Generated this encounter.

independent > wood > animal > dogs > 80 meters

A pack of 13 wild dogs.

If the notice the PCs and outnumber them, they attack. If they lack superior numbers, they flee.

I think it should read "If they notice the PCs"

Thanks! Good catch. This should be fixed now for both dogs and wolves.

I also fixed a missing "a(n)" in the text for a patrol's heavy weapon (if present) and added clarification that a specific artillery result can be either self-propelled artillery or air defense artillery.
