Basically the title. In the army book, if you take Josef Bugman, you have to take a unit of Longbeard Rangers as well. It also says "This is in addition to the normal allowance of Longbeards and Rangers, but do not count towards the minimum number of Core Troops choices in the Army." Since there is no minimum core number, but rather core points, does this mean that they count towards your minimum pv of core units or not? There's nothing on the FAQ, nor did I find anything searching on the forum.

Thanks!

From what I gather on Army Builder, units that did not count towards the NUMBER of units now do not count towards the PERCENTAGE of core units you take.

aerethan is correct, also found in the BRB stated explicitly.

Ah, sorry still don't have my own copy of the BRB and I didn't remember that from my skimming

Otherwise warhounds etc would not count, which would be silly....
