Ishagu Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I played a game a few days ago and something came up that was contested:A 5 man scout squad (4 snipers + 1ML) is 85 points. Adding sgt Telion is a further 50 points so the total is now 135. (sgt Telion, 4 Snipers, 1 ML) It was pointed out that the codex actually says that Telion Replaces the existing sgt for a cost of 50. That means that 135 only buys you Sgt Telion, 3 Snipers and 1 ML (as one of the Snipers is the replaced sgt) and that If you want the 6th man the cost would be 148.Which of these is correct?Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raeven Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I don't have the book with me, but I believe the latter is correct. Telion is an upgrade, not an additional purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkGuard Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Latter is correct. Telion is quite clearly an upgrade to the Sergeant, not an additional purpose. I've never seen interpretation number 1 before, and I've been playing that Codex pretty much since it came out (which was 08 I think). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawk Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Yep. 148 for the 6th scout, weapons, and Telion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disruptor_fe404 Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Definitely the second, 'replaces' is pretty prescriptive. I've never seen the former interpretation though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
