Bit late to the party on this one, but wanted to weigh in to also say this comes across odd and counter-intuitive to me, and would to my players. If my players are setting up a sentry over their camp and are paranoid, they may want to have two people keeping watch. If I turn around and say, OK, but you are now penalised, they will not be happy. I see what is being attempted by the rule, but IMO this isn't the right implementation. It shouldn't always be easier for someone to sneak up on four sentries than it is to sneak up on one.
