2000AD (2000 AD) Does Judge Dredd work well with One on One play?

So I just ordered two copies The Judge Dredd Corebook and also the Luna-1 Sourcebook and the Robot Wars book. I was hoping that it would be possible to play Judge Dredd with one player and one GM. I would assume it does seeing as how Judges in Mega-City 1 are trained from birth (at least practically) to be badass super-cops. However I thought it would be prudent to figure out from the folks who have the books already and have probably played at least one session.

In my experience the game depends on group interaction like D&D, especially when it comes to combat encounters.

I would say yes. However, it might be a good idea for your player to play two characters as judges often team up with partners.

I think it would work with a caveat -- it can be quite harsh in terms of healing if you're used to something like D&D. With an entire party to support you, that's alleviated somewhat, but with only one player you might want to think about houseruling the healing rules a little. One houserule I heard of being used was that your END dice pool could work a bit like your LUC pool and be a pool of dice you can spend to heal by spending a round resting.
