Default Multiple Monsters

I know that if you are facing multiple monsters the rules that apply to one apply to all (eg. fight with level only).

But if a monster had a rule that all enhancers played on it count double do the enhancers need to be played specifically on that monster only? Or can you play them on any monster in the combat and it will count double for any?

It depends on the wording. If it specifically said that all monster enhancers attached to that one monster count double, then only those attached to it would count. If it said that monster enhancers count double in this fight, then the monster its attached to doesn't matter.

Do you have a particular monster in mind or is this just a hypothetical question?

Yes actually, I just put my cards away but I believe it was the Ding Bats? Or one of the Bats

The Ding Bats card says specifically, "Positive enhancers give them double the bonus" (emphasis added). I would only double the enhancers actually attached to the Ding Bats.

If you had a helper in this battle would they be required to fight with their level only?

Yes, the monsters special powers count against everybody in the combat.

Then I assume that the Transporter Twin is an isolated incident and for pretty much all or for all other cards the special powers effect everyone in the fight?

Yes. The Transporter Twin, as detailed in this thread would be an exception to the rule because MunchkinMan said so. It's safest to assume the abilities count against everybody unless the monster specifically targets the combat owner in some way (such as the Transporter Twin only being a twin of the original munchkin in the fight).

Cool, so err on the side of it effecting all munchkins in combat and when unsure just ask here. Gotcha
