Bokenboy didn't have the cards to defeat him. I did but it would have cleaned me out. I told bokenboy I would play the cards to defeat the second monster for the additional 4 treasures (he was getting the levels). The THIRD player (not party to our deal) objected to our renegotiating and insisted I had to stick to the original deal - meaning I was cleaning out my hand for 2nd and 4th treasure while Jim got 3 levels and 1st, 3rd, 5th, 6th, 7th, & 8th treasure.

I still maintain it's perfectly valid to renegotiate the division of spoils when circumstances change (monsters are added). That's the real question we need answered.
That seems legitimate. You are not in any way obligated to offer any assistance in the combat beyond adding your current combat strength. I see no difficulty in refusing to do anything more unless the combat owner sweetens the deal, as long as one recognizes that they get the final say on whether the original deal is altered.
