Ok, I got through the catacombs but I think I might have made a mistake.

After passing through the catacombs I got into a small cavern area, when I went down the passage I ran into a group of 4 enemies that put my party down with little or no trouble at all. I figured, if I can't beat 'em, run you a$$ off and save your skin! So, I gave my player character several potions, those boots that make you run double speed and I also gave him several pieces of equipment that I couldn't replace (rings of protect +1, ring of holiness, long bow of marksmanship, etc.) and decided to run for my life. I got past the warriors, lost all party members EXCEPT my main character (it cost a FORTUNE to resurrect them all) and got out. I lost several rather nice bits and pieces of equipment that I couldn't carry and as a result of totally re-equipping my party, most of my money.

Here's where I think I made a mistake:
I didn't kill that group of bounty hunters/whatever the heck they are. Was it important for me to do that? Did halt the story because I didn't kill them? Do I have to go back there and kill them or am I ok? Please let me know if this run was futile if you can.....

A bit worried,
Jafin
