Rob chips in

Come on! Sleep spell someone to death? Lets not forget that Hero Wars is a storytelling game! If you sleep someone, and they lose the AP's and is out of the fight, it is surely up to the narrator to decide what happens to the character. May I suggest that you play other games such as AD&D, or even the old RQ 2 &3 if you wish for a Role-play-by-numbers game!
