Final Fantasy Tactics Random Encounters

If you play Final Fantasy Tactics all the way through, you're probably going to run into a lot of random battles along the way. If you play it through more than once, you may even end up entirely sick of them. But these random encounters have a lot of randomness that build them up; encounters are defined by how you enter the location, and even then there are a lot of variables involved. Some enemies will always appear, some will appear infrequently or not at all, and some maps even have completely separate, very rare encounters. This page gives you a digest of them all.
