Bitten- 4th of july fun

[mqstout]

1: Yes, it counts as a hero kill towards zombie victory.
2: I have used it that if the wound is prevented, Bitten doesn't happen. Your second case, "cannot be killed in any way" is open to discussion. That's a scenario I've never seen or thought of before. I would initially say that it does prevent Bitten, because it would count as killing the hero (per your first question). But, you do explicitly still take wounds, just not lethal ones, while that heroic card is active.

I would like to point out, if you are not aware, that any card that cancels a card can be used to cancel a remains in play card. The cards that explicitly say to cancel a 'remains in play' card is a more limited cancel card than a generic cancel card.

The instantly turn into a zombie hero cards (Bitten is one of them) are some of the zombie player's strongest cards in his arsenal. I've killed a geared-up, unwounded Sam with but two zombies with just that card. It was great when I managed to combine Bitten with Overconfidence (can't run away from zombies). Sadly, that was only on a two-wound teen.
