Yes. Kinda Friendly monsters treat National Guard as they aren't
there.

Yes, the monster can attack national guard, but they don't do any
damage to him. But you can co-exist with them, thus stomping cities
while they stand idly by.

The sides remaining must reach an agreement.

The Guard Commander treats the Guards as if they were his units. So,
if he was the only survivor, he decides the monster's
retreat. Otherwise, he gets to put in his input with everyone else.

>What happens if there are just Guard units left?

We play it that the person who placed the guard gets to decide.  If no
one can remember, then the players who fought in the battle should
come to an agreement.

This one is more problematic, as players have tried to block the
monster with his own units. At Avaloncon, it was ruled that the Blonde
Lure will stay on the board until the monster reaches her. If the
monster, however, goes to Hollywood, she joins him there and has no
further affect on the game.

Technically, units are moved one at a time, so you need to finish moving
one before you move another.

If you go from coast to coast, it counts as water. So, going from the
Miami hex to the Everglades hex all counts as water. If you go inland
at all, the first hex is a sea hex, the rest count normally.

For example, if you start two hexes north of L.A. and attack
Sacramento, it would cost you 3 movement. One point to go south into
the coastal/ mountain hex, two points to enter the mountain hex that
Sacramento is in.

That's fine, though research cards should always go first -- in
particular, the molecular cannon (which can teleport the monster out
of combat before it begins) and the rogue nuke (which destroys
everything in that hex anyway).

Yes.
