Yes, did not have my rules here. They clearly state that the +3 damage for wounding are only for the first time you push someone into the wounding hazard.
So I can, per activation only do it twice.
First Attack, Micon goes throgh his whole tree, doing 11 damage plus 2 fatigue (one from damage tree, one from hazard). And the second attack going through the whole damage tree the same: 11 damage plus 2 fatigue (being irrelevant since you can only go up to exhausted).
So that is 22 damage "only".

Yep, that sounds about right. When I've been looking through the cards, I've come to the conclusion that most warriors can do something between 9-12 maximum total damage in one attack if they go through their whole damage tree. That's without the +3 for the lethal hazard.

That amount of damage seems hard to actually achieve though - not only do you only score successes on the average of 50% of your attack dice, the opponent also gets their defense against it, and then the damage is reduced by armour. So I figure that a good solid hit from an attack will maybe do 3-4 damage or something like that in a normal situation? And then you could double that for an activation, if you say that you attack twice and get two good hits in. I haven't played yet, so just speculating.

Favor can definitely boost that. In either direction. So I would assume the average ranges in at about 5-6 damage after armor. But if you really push it, you can insta-kill a gladiator with a little bit of luck. And it also always depends on whether the target is exhausted.

We played a couple games earlier today. I had two memorable rolls. Rolled six attack dice with one additional favor die, rolled 8 successes (twice). Basically killed two gladiators with those two shots. Throw in some damaging terrain and it would have been even more epic.

Funny but I don't seem to remember the bad rolls.
