Main player escapes combat leaving helper
Due to recent changes to the rules, I wanted to confirm what happens when the turn player skips out on a combat using a teleport, leaving the Helper behind.
In this thread, it was ruled that the Helper must lose the combat, taking the hit and Running Away. However, the rules that led to this ruling have recently been rewritten and no longer seem to support this opinion. The "Where'd Those Monsters Go" box on page 8 of the rules now states: Quote:
So, may I please ask for a reruling on this situation, taking into account the new wording?

Re: Main player escapes combat leaving helper
That thread is two years old. We revised the rules after that point. Therefore, that thread is now outdated.

Re: Main player escapes combat leaving helper
Thanks, Andrew. Nice to get confirmation as I think that might be the most recent thread on the issue, and I hadn't noticed the difference in the rules until this morning.
I actually thought the online one was the same version as mine as the date on the Rules page matches the date of my printing (3rd), so I didn't even realise that there was any errata to check out. Edit: Ah, I see it was also addressed in the what to include in the FAQ thread more recently than the older thread. I hadn't read through that one in a while.
