## Rules questions

### If I lay my character down during Courage, do I still have to discard my Bullet card and can anyone wound me?

If you lay down you discard your Bullet card face‑down, you do not shoot, you do not take part in the loot split, and you are guaranteed not to be wounded that turn (page 3).

### If I play a Bang! but my target has already laid down, does my Bang! still wound them?

No — if your target has laid down (or if you laid down), your Bullet card is discarded and has no effect; card effects are applied only for players who still have a card in front of them (page 3).

### How many wounds eliminate a player, and can I get more than one wound in a single turn?

A player with a total of 3 or more wounds is eliminated and removed from the game, and it is possible to receive more than one wound in a single turn if multiple players Bang! you (page 3); the Unbreakable power changes elimination to the 5th wound (page 4).

### Who starts taking loot if the Godfather is down or wounded?

If the Godfather has laid down or is wounded, the closest standing player going clockwise starts taking shares of the loot (page 3).

### Can I reuse Click/Bang cards or get Bang! cards back during the game?

Each Bullet card can only be used once (you have 8 cards for 8 turns), but a Clip lets its taker take a Bang! from the discard pile and add it to their hand (then discard another card), and the Good Friend power grants a Bang! when another player uses a Clip (pages 3–4).

### When do powers like The Kid and The Cunning happen during the hold‑up — who goes first?

The Kid chooses a target after all other players during the hold‑up (step 3), and The Cunning may change their Bullet card at the end of the hold‑up (step 3); the rule explicitly states The Cunning changes after The Kid has used their power (page 4, step reference on page 3).
