[@Stekkmen] When we get in heavy combat, I will indeed be controlling the NPC's persay. However, in lighter combat I'll get the players to do it individually. Example: A group is trying to clear out a house full of infected. I'd take control and determine what happens via my system, turn by turn kinda thing.

However, say you're wandering out and you want to encounter a single, or a few infected. I'll let you guys determine what outcome is a fair one based on the circumstances. To answer the question fully, I'm gonna be "that person" and quote the rules.

"Your character will not land every shot on target every time, nor will they be perfect at every survival skill. This is not an action hero roleplay, your character may get injured. You are not invincible. If you RP it that way, I will take action."

So, act it out in a believable manner and you're good. If your character gets caught in a corner, don't god mode it. Play it out and accept the consequences of having gotten yourself in that mess. That being said, if you RP out getting into an advantageous position in a fight, then more power to you. More rule quotes. "If you are honest and don’t try and take advantage of me, we will get along just fine."

TL,DR: Play smart, accept consequences of your mistakes.
