Martin87 Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Ok so in the skaven book and pestalins book it says that a congregation of filth is only 160 points although yet a unit of plague monks with 4p units is 240 points? I know I'm missing something basic if anyone can clear this up it would be greatly appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwyn chan 'r Gwyll Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 If it's a battallion, that's the added points cost for the battalion. That is to say, you pay points for the extra rules the battalion gives you (as well as the ability to take an extra artefact and have only one drop) on top of the cost for the units that constitute it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flamingwalnut Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 It's like buying a case for your models instead of buying new models. The case gives benefits to the models within it, but it is not the models themselves. Separate costs, different choices. For reference, buying a battalion gives you: An extra artifact to give to any hero (not just the ones in the battalion) An extra command point at the start of the game. The ability to drop all units inside the battalion as a single drop when deploying (you can still deploy them separately as well) You cannot have any unit be a part of two battalions at once. Hope that clears it all up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
