How do you accomplish that? Doesn't rolling in the open give the stats away, for NPCs at least?

Oh, for NPCs it's more in the sense of not letting the players know what are their stats before starting a combat with them, but for monsters I manage to be mostly opaque.

Since my players almost never spend their experience points on Skills (a problem discussed elsewhere), they fail these Journey rolls pretty often.

Also, recovering attribute damage is pretty cheap as in my campaign I don't throw threats at the party at every single moment.

I also make heavy use of battlemaps by "2-Minute Tabletop" (he has some free stuff available at his website) and "Neutral Party".

The "rank 1 undead" thing (and subsequent ranks) is entirely described in the text for the spell.

Hi Brior, it's exciting news that you're preparing the next expansion to the game! One thing I'd like to see in future campaign books is a short set of suggestions for consequences of not "resolving" each adventure site.  Something in the lines of: "If the PCs don't reach these ruins until the next ...

Great news, I look forward to dropping some cash to add it to my collection.

Me too!

My group makes almost no money - just what they can scavenge or trade.

Sometimes they find a nice piece of old jewelry that they can sell for a few silver coins, but that's it.
