0 Krefey Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 There only appears to be Reinforcements (units with abilities to show up later, like scouts / terminators) or Strategic Reserves, where you pay command points to keep units back.

0 Thenothas Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 I got the sense was that you paid army points for models to hang back. You had to have enough 'Reservation points' to bring them on. I thought that was a bit dumb. Save X points for reserves - spend X points to bring them on. Part of this rule states "adding models to existing units does not cost Reinforcement Points" So maybe that's how it works - I can't think of any armies that can boost units this way. Maybe new Monolith rules? Gate back in dead mans? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Shinigami_Josh Posted August 24, 2020 Author Share Posted August 24, 2020 (edited) so i finally got a copy of the rules and from RAW and i'd say RAI i can deepstrike terminators turn 1 specific rule stopping this is part of the eternal war mission pack, so it would depend on the mission being used Edited September 14, 2020 by Shinigami_Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
