Double-handed weapons

[PJON]

Hi, well....you know me.

I say it has top be discarded. You must keep the same rule for all situations, Meaning if the Hero was in a space alone they would have to discard it. Also, since Zombie activate first. What if that hero gets into a fight. The rules say

page 12 LNOE
If a hero ever has more items than they can carry, they must "immediately" discard items down to their limit.

They can not trade because it is not their turn, they can not use the item (if it were keys or TJ, a push broom, and garden shears, this action is during game set up, it does allow for PLAY IMMEDIATELY's though) and they can not hold it during the Zombie turn.

SET UP
Heroes take the feild
Then Zombies take the field
If you want the heroes running around and doing stuff before the Zombies even come to the party, or the game actually starts, thats your call.

play it any way you see fit :p
