While I understand that combat maneuver builds are feat-intensive, and most choose to avoid them for that reason, a dear and loyal player of mine is UNSHAKABLE in her desire to build a Trip-focused PC. Fine, all well and good.
Since I am not a sadist, and my other players are totally game to build their PCs to WHICHEVER AP I choose, I want to avoid choosing one with lots of many-legged, flying, or Huge creatures (though I know of course there will always be some, and I know, too, every PC will find some situations they are not useful in). Which led me to the idea of asking the forums:
Which are the APs that have the highest number of humanoid encounters and humanoid BBEGs? The tripper doesn't need to be the star of the party, but I'd hate for her to feel useless compared to the other ladies.
Thanks so much in advance for taking the time and care in giving me your ideas.
War for the Crown is a big one. There ARE non-humanoids, but far and away most things are humanoids - or at least, have two legs.

Fantastic. Thank you to all four of you. I’ll get to work reading those three stat. Really appreciate it.
The Pirate AP S&S is also heavy with humanoid encounters
I had a player in Hell's Rebels that was focused on tripping and in nearly every single fight he had something something to trip.
Good to know, Warped Savant! And thanks for the additional info, Haldrick; looks like I’m richer in options than I thought I might be.
There's probably a numerical answer to this....
* looks at shelf full of AP books * ....oh no.
Giantslayer has a lot of (obviously) larger humanoids.

Not gonna lie... this made my cereal milk come out of my nose.
