ENCOUNTERS

In B-Grade, an encounter ideally is a challenge that has some sort of unique element that make it memorable, with a way for the party to advance even if they fail.
In B-Grade, encounters are worth xp. Xp is used to them improve the character by increasing dice in stats and skills, etc.
There are quite a few different possible encounters, but let's focus on the meat of rpg - foes.

FOES

There are 2 types of foes in B-Grade: Unworthy foes and worthy foes.
Unworthy foes are just extras such as henchmen, followers, and just enemies that are met usually in large numbers - eg ninjas, animals, simple robots, nazis, thugs, zombies, etc
Worthy foes are major npcs and include villians, masterminds, powerful monsters, grandmaster ninjas, pygmy chieftains, dinosaurs etc.

Unworthy foes are unchanged from the Reign rulebook (i.e. they have a threat value and that's it).
Unworthy foes do not have stats, skills or even wounds.
