Yes.

H&H is an older book than the MH. 5 is the max, but a lot of people play that 5 is the
max for gut-check, while everything order counts for Harrowed-draws and the like.

Grit: Every time the defeat something REALLY scary. The more grit they have, the
scarier the opponent should be. Legend Chip: I give one to the pot every time the
posse succeeds on a scenario.
