yes but if you aim whit a King and that walking dead smaks you in the head
at 9 before you can act again at 7 that aim was pretty useless and whit the
mook rules that all the opponents act at one card that can get really nasty.

no normally not but till now we just played "the last stop" there in the
first figth i placed them in cover from the seats and they stayed there and
the other combat was the fight whit the undead coyotes in the cave and there
was not to much cover to hide behind. the other scenario we are allmost trou
now is adios a-mi-go and they where not to found taking cover when one of
the mi-gos came jumping down on them and startet to rip them apart whit his
claws. So by now we had 3 or 4 fight since we play DL, spend around 10 hours
whit that and everyone is boored of the combat system.

>. Give each nameless adversary 20 to 30 points, as soon as they're up, he's
dead. (Or at least knocked out). For every 5 Points, he gets -1 on all his
actions.


yes that is what i am planning to do next time, i had those rules in the
original rulebook but in HoE i read the new mook rules whit the chips and
everywhere i read those new rules would be so great and wonderfull cuz you
dont have any bookkeeping so i never tryed out the hitpoints system but
certeanly i will do that next time.
