Exactly. As others have said, Heroes Replenish just means that when your hero dies you automatically get a new hero. It doesn't change any win conditions, including the typical zombie win condition of killing four heroes, or any scenarios where a specifically mentioned win condition is to kill X number of heroes (sometimes more or less than 4).

So take your two player game as an example.or example One Hero Player controlling all 4 Heroes, one Zombie Player controlling the zombies. Without Heroes Replenish, the Hero player would not get another Hero until all four of their Heroes died, which in most cases would mean the Zombie Player wins anyway. So, if three of your Heroes die, you are now playing the game with one Hero.

That's one of the reasons I've personally always preferred to just automatically play with Heroes Replenish and Always Zombie Heroes (which balance each other out) unless the specific scenario happens to have one of them included but not the other. (Because if the scenario already has one, but not the other and I choose to use both, then that is unbalancing it again.)
