Continuing with my ruminations on colony/settlement formation and the adventure potential of the same, I present another new random encounter table.
When a PC is running or working for a colony or new settlement, use this table instead of the standard Random Encounters. The frequency of encounters is the same - 5+ on 1D, daily.

Please note that this is not attempting to be comprehensive "how to run a colony" rules. The game is about Adventure, and these encounters should produce those. See also D66 Reasons Why the Colony Failed.
