Lose 2 levels even if you escape.

[kotya]

I'm sorry, but I still have doubts with this, could you please answer the following questions?

FAQ stated:

A. No. But if you cannot defeat them, then you must try to run away, and you'll lose the 2 levels even if you do escape. If they catch you, of course, you do suffer the Bad Stuff from those Monsters. (But you don't lose the two levels twice!)

I'm not sure what the phrase in bold means, could you please clarify it?

1. Suppose you're figthing with Space Probe (the character loses 2 levels if they fail to defeat it, and Bad Stuff is losing 2 levels, Armor and Headgear), and you lose the combat. What will be his negative effect if you fail the Run Away?
a) lose 2 levels, Armor and Headgear
b) lose 4 levels, Armor and Headgear

2. The same situation for Mr. Bones (lose 1 level if you fail to defeat it, and Bad Stuff is losing 2 levels). If you fail the Run Away, how many levels will you lose?
a) 2 levels
b) 3 levels

Is there a common approach for this situation?

3. If I fight King Tut and its Mate (or King Tut and Wight Brothers), do I have to lose 2 levels twice if I've failed to defeat them and successfully run away from both?
4. If I fight Space Probe and Its Clone (or, for example, Space Probe and King Tut), do I have to lose 2 levels twice if I've failed to defeat them and successfully run away from both?
Is this a common approach for the rest of monsters or the FAQ answer regards to King Tut and Wight Brothers only?
