I've been using the restocking table fairly regularly, as my players return for more Dwimmermount. But, am wondering about the intent of these rules/guidelines as they relate to friendly factions.
The PCs in my group are headed back to 6B, eager to liberate the Foundry. They tried previously but were overwhelmed in the process, and Erdak's 2nd in command was also slain in the resulting battle.
After last session, I was doing my normal rolls for restocking on 6B and came up with 'Empty' for the dwarven populated rooms. On one hand, it would be cool for the party to come back and find that their allies against the Termaxians and the Dworgs were wiped out. But, at the same time, the intent for these restocking was that 'Empty' really means 'Remains Empty' or 'Remains Unchanged'. The restocking clearly was meant for rooms that the party had cleared of danger.
I'm curious what the opinion here is on this. I'm leaning towards refining the restocking die rolls, so that friendly factions are either unchanged, missing, or their numbers are changed (+/- 1d6x10%).
