Legion Étrangère point cost question
« on: 12 March 2014, 03:33:34 AM »
Am I missing something or should the Legion Étrangère Captain be 32 points instead of 30?

There are errors in the point costs.  The author mentioned he's not good at math.  Such honesty!

I have rerun the Captain through the very latest version of the points calculator and I still get 30 points...  :?

Care to share your workings? We are keen to get things right and are happy to admit any errors.

There are other mistakes in the Legion, which are explained in the Errata, but I shall reproduce that section here:

8.4.8 The Legion Étrangère
Correction.  Sergeant-Major Baptiste costs 39 points.
Correction.  A Bedouin costs 23 points.
Correction.  A machine gun team costs 52 points.

Probably an issue on my end. I'll check my figures and double check the errata and get back to you

Just done it manually and with the spreadsheet - both come out at 30pts.

Your issue is in stats, it's 16pts, not 18.
So many projects..... so little time.......

Data entry problem. I had the SV at 3 instead of 2.
