Kill Points

So the following counts as a Kill Point..

-Spore Mines
-Transports (and one for the squad)
-Gun Drones detatched from Devilfish (and one for Fish, one for squad)
-independent models from one FO slot (one for each Zoanthrope)

Brilliant! cheers

*grumble over*

Maybe the Tournament Guru will tweek KPs for CAG Tourney II

While Kill Points make a few choices from each army less than viable, there's only one army that they truly screw over ...

Imperial Guard!!! Your compulsory Troops choice is worth a minimum of three kill points, and god forbid you want to run a Guardsman-heavy army like mine with two platoons of three squads each (plus Hardened Veterans and two squads of Storm Troopers). I hope the new Codex beefs them up some (March can't come fast enough!)

Yeah it really really hurts guard.

I don't think this will be as big of a problem once we get GT missions... with primary secondary and tertiary objectives. Instead of the all or nothing nature of kill points right now.
