In AT-43 a unit of "Steel Troopers" cost 175 points.
Not too hard. What makes it difficult is that unit is comprised of 6 models. Still, not so hard. Now, the challenge is, if you want to pick up a 7th model, he's gonna cost you 30 points. :evil: So, how do I make a 6 model unit that costs 175 points and when you add the 7th model it costs 205 points? And 235 for the 8th... Remember, there are options that will cost per-model so the model count has to be maintained...this tripped me up. I'm lost. Unless I'm just totally not remembering something simple :wink: Thanks! Butcher Warmachine/Hordes ('Retired' Confrontation and AT-43) Army Builder Author. Magic the Gathering Card Vault Author. |

can you create a unit of single troopers n then cost them that way round adding them to the first unit as links?
you could even create a second squad of the troopers as unit with a cost per unit of 30 points, the overall model count will show properly?? |

You could always hide a -5 point option on the unit that's only applied once.

Okay, I went looking for the proper way to do this: A postlinks script:
@single = @single-5 ~the cost is 5 less than it should be You'll have to figure out what goes in the textcost field to show the user what it costs. |

am not sure if the postlinks idea would work as it may then be applied to every model in the unit?

That's what @single is for - it's only applied once. I did test the script, BTW.
@base would modify the base cost of every model. |
