The speed of encounters vary. Technically speaking, it is constant when the map is created, but can vary between encounters. In other words, a Tank will always move at 40%, while another tank will move at 90%, but the speed of each tank will not change during their existence. When you get 9 "Water Pods" going at 100%, you're in for quite a treat!

There are also five encounters outside the base. They are quite easy to kill.
