Do *all* the heroes always win the exchanges in extended contests (or do you use Group Extendeds?). If a hero is drops to 0AP or less in GE, he will be wounded at the appropriate level when the combat is over, the entire side does not "win" or "lose" normally (that would be a Group Simple).

This is one of the very few (only) rule listed as "optional".
The other thing to do is go for the trading AP for Wounds route - It may or may not make sense in the immediate contest, but it *will* last longer than mere AP loss.
