I died on my first 2 honour attempts; once on a BS mine that my level 11 perception character never saw (and of course as the game requires your characters to travel single file bunched together you all die) and once to one of those bomber guys who appeared after I already killed everyone and it was his turn first....other than that type of BS stuff that can 1-shot your whole party, thereby losing you x number of hours, Honour mode is the way to play this game.
