im lost... anyone have a quick help guide?

the 25 page download dont really help, you get +1CP per turn, can you accumulate them, can i still save them up to use greentide? do i still get +5cp for a battalion?

help?

We won't know 100% until the complete rules are released. This thread contains what we know so far.

Detachments cost CP now, but they're refunded if your Warlord is in them.

The 'Core Rules' are available to download, but they don't include Missions, Detachments, etc. The complete 'Core Book' is out in a fortnight, along with the FAQs for the existing books.

The rules have been leaked. They haven't been released.

However, this was something that was previewed some time ago on Warhammer Community:
https://www.warhammer-community.com/2020/06/04/taking-command-of-your-pointsgw-homepage-post-1/

Basically, in a 2000pt game, you start with a flat 12CP and pay CP for your detachments. Some detachments give you a refund on this cost if your Warlord is in the detachment, and then you also gain +1CP every turn in your Command Phase.

No you won't get +5CPs for a battallion, it's very different from 8th.

Basically every battle-forged list starts with 12 CPs plus 1CP/turn and each detachment you choose costs CPs. Battallions cost 3 CPs but they have a rule that refunds those CPs. An additional battallion would cost 3 CPs for example, so it's actually removing CPs rather than adding CPs, like it used to be.

so the stratagems might change too? i.e green tide might no longer exist for orks?

Why's that?

as best I understand it until your faction gets a new 9e codex all the strats from 8e are kept as is, a few might get tweaked wording if they dont fit the new rules but thats about it

AFAIK, you can save up the CPs. I don't recall anything saying the CP gained in a turn would go away if not used.

You will need the full rulebook for the rules on detachments and command points.
