It sounds ok except for the "Whenever a clone dies" part. Just by
averages, you are going to face 3 or 4 clones two thirds fo the time for
each challange, and one of those times you would have to reface it.
Plus you end up rolling the dice possibly four (or more) times for each
challange.

just my .02,
Wayne
