Hi, I tried a search and nothing has come up so I'd thought I would ask this quick question. When a Treeman Ancient uses it's Sillent Communion ability does the player need reinforcement points in order to use it or can it keep putting them down as long as it meets the range and minimum distance away?

Thanks

I can't find the rule right now, but if its put down a new unit, you need to pay the points, if however it adds models to an existing unit you don't need to pay points. This is also explained in the faq

Cheers, thanks for the info!

You don't need to pay points, all sylvaneth tree summoning is free, as you are not creating a new 'unit'

Does the FAQ say that? I can't find any rules in my battletome saying they are always free.

Im sure you're correct, but if I ever play against a timmy I want to have my rules sorted.

when you go to the rules errata section of the gw site you have the Pitched Battle Profiles pdf, at the bottom of that file you have the wyldwood. There it states that the woods cost 40 point and in the notes it says:

Sylvaneth Wyldwoods cost 0
points in an army that has the
Sylvaneth allegiance.
