A friend gave me some surplus wolves/werewolves and supporting cast from the Blue Moon range (one of them has already played the role of Black Jack) and I decided to go for a company of Werewolves from the Gothic supplement. This has raised a few questions for me which it may be useful to have clarification upon before the new volume is released to an eager public.
1. Points for "Transform" creatures - I presume that these creatures are pointed up in each form and then the average taken. This works for the Accursed but when I tried it for the normal werewolf (if that is not a contradiction in terms) I got a value of 34 rather than 37. Have I miscalculated or am I displaying excessive presumption as to the methodology?
2. If my presumption for 1. is correct then presumably the weapon additions will be also be pointed according to who can use them (ie pistol at 2/3 because it can be used by the human and the hybrid but not the full werewolf. Incidentally, if I am correct here, one can continue using that most efficacious device - Lady Kate's Enumerator - to point up one's company by assigning each type the relevant fraction (that is to say the Accursed Werewolf and Accursed Hybrid are each 1/2, and the Werewolf human, Werewolf hybrid and Werewolf wolf are each 1/3).
3. Should werewolf humans have armour 10? The reason for asking this is that the list offers them the ability to upgrade their armour to lined coat or brigandine which seems superfluous.
I have only recently joined this group and have been reading back posts - I trust I am not reiterating what has gone before.
Example using the Enumerator for a company of 1 x Accursed, 3 x Werewolves and 1 x Bloodwolf

I will learn how to insert a table in due course but I trust the above gives you the general idea,
