What, IRL, is the difference between being attacked by five people and
five large dogs? You can't defend against all of them at the same time.
Same thing with spirits, if you ask me -- a projecting magician and four
watchers are four different attackers, plain and simple. Not all of them
may be great fighters, but they don't have to be if they're hitting you in
the back.

Waarom? Laat je een groepje van tien gangers soms ook niet toe, omdat die
ook de "friends in melee" bonus krijgen als ze met z'n allen op een gast
staan te meppen?
