Can a single Kill remove a Great Old One, and do units have hit points?

The designer confirmed a single Kill removes any unit, and that requiring more is a house rule.

Yes. Units have no hit points or defense values: one Kill removes any unit, Great Old Ones included, unless a specific unit or Spellbook says otherwise. Cultists and Monsters can kill a Great Old One, since a Kill counts no matter who rolled it. Requiring extra Kills to dismiss a Great Old One is a house rule, not the printed rule.
