If there is Heroes inside unit with last one miniature. Let say Captain and last swordsman (1/10).
And this combine unit is being attacked and hit 3 times, then according to rules, the Captain will have to take 2 wounds on the worse swordsman Defence?

Yes the Captain would suffer two wounds as you use the units defense until they are all dead. So after the units unit is dead, any future hits are rolled using the lone Heroes defense.
Personaly I do not like this rule. It was the first thing my group house ruled as none of us liked it.
After trying a few different ideas we settled on this:
Any wounds that would affect the Hero are rerolled using the Heroes DEF.
So in your example the unit suffered 3 hits. You roll 3 dice using the Swordsmen DEF but failed all three. The Swordsman is killed but you still have two wounds that now have to be allocated to the Hero. Those two wounds are rerolled using the Heroes DEF.
It's probably not perfect but we enjoy it.

Thanks, That's seems good, Im going to test it in a moment. ---- edit: ahh... "any wound that affect hero" I was going to complain that i reroll pool of dice and the outcome was unfavourable even more [ 4x dice: 1 wound for swordsman. I reroll 3 remaining and Captain take 2 wound]. But with this bit it make more sens. Need to play again. |

I tried more indepth ways of wound allocation but ultimately they felt too complicated for OPR.
Honestly having models with different; DEF, Toughness, Armour, ect, in the same unit is something a lot of war games have struggled with. I'd say go with what ever you and your group feel is right. |

your rule is a good one. Should be a default one in core rules. The more Im waiting for your rulebook, would probably save me time reinventing things.
