I thought I knew the answer but a post I read recently made me think otherwise. Last game I played, each individual Zoanthrope was it's own kill point. Is that correct? Or do all the Zoey's need to be killed to claim the KP?

Every unit gives up a Kill Point, not each force organization choice. Even if you play by the strict RAW and say that Zoanthropes are delpoyed as "a unit" once the game gets underway they are completely separate units and would therefore each surrender a Kill Point upon their demise.

hmmm, this is an iffy one IMO since the codex says quite specifically "they deploy as a single unit" but then they clearly operate as seperate unique units.

I think probably each Zoanthrope should be a Kill Point, but it really is a tough one and the only real reason I think that way is to avoid the potential for abuse if you go the other way.

Under your argument they dont give a KP (which i agree is dumb) then IG squads wouldnt give KP only the Platoon as it should be IMHO, but thats wishful thinking.
