Points Cost

Points Cost

Source: Core Rulebook 3E, p. 161

A unit's points value rises by 10% (rounding up) for every whole 1,000 experience points it earns, reflecting its growing expertise.

As a unit's experience changes, the points value it is worth will also change to reflect their expertise and availability. For every whole 1,000 experience points a unit earns, its points value is increased by 10% (rounding up). So a unit with 1,000-1,999 experience has its points increased by 10%, 2,000-2,999 by 20% and so on. This is demonstrated in the examples below.

Example 1

Unit type	Basic points cost	Points per 1,000 Experience (10%)
10 Imperial Guard	50	+5
10 Eldar Guardians	80	+8
10 Orky Bommas	100	+10
10 Space Marines	150	+15

Example 2

Unit type	Points cost for experience 0-999	1,000-1,999	2,000-2,999	3,000-3,999
10 Imperial Guard	50	55	60	65
10 Eldar Guardians	80	88	106	114
10 Orky Bommas	100	110	120	130
10 Space Marines	150	165	180	195
