Do I get defeat rewards and "when defeated" effects when I defeat a Monster in an ambush?
The rulebook treats an ambush as a combat encounter; the reward ruling comes from agreeing forum posts, with no official ruling found.

Yes — an ambush is one combat round, and defeating the Monster gives its reward or penalty. If you fail to defeat it, it returns to the cup with no reward.
