Bronouns Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Is it working as intended that some battalions didn't receive points in the General's handbook? I sort of hate it if this is the case, since I micro-transactioned most of the ones I have. I apologize if this topic is a retread, still finding my way around.

amysrevenge Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 The implication has been that the ones that have been left out are from the Realmgate Wars books, and are more suited to Open/Narrative Play, and largely unsuited to Matched Play. Hence no points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Alec Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Matched play is matched play, don't forget that. There's three ways to play, and not all batallions fit the matched play mold. The others are open/narrative-oriented. Feel free to use them in your games. Don't get tied down in the idea that points is all. If you really like a formation, use it!

For pick up games in-store, I am finding points are a good starting measure to agree a general size of armies but then the conversation is usually along the lines of: "So, here's a cool scenario, let's play this" "Awesome - roughly how many points do you have with you? I've got 1.5k" "I've only 1k but how about I re-summon these daemons during the game to balance things out a bit" "Sure, or you could use those Silver Tower miniatures - yeah, there's no "points" but those two units look they'd balance things out" etc...
