I went through the first our pages manually, and also did a search and didn't see this come up, but if I missed it, apologies and please link me to it.

Just looking for a clarification on p241 of the BRB:

It mentions that some rules allow you to add a unit to your army during the game, or to replace destroyed models during the game, but that you do not have to pay Reinforcement points for models that are simply added to a unit during the game.

SO - with that being the case, do I have the following scenarios correctly worked out?

1. Pay for a unit of 10 Poxwalkers. Put them directly behind a unit of Cultists - Pop "Cloud of Flies" on the Walkers and use the "Dead Walk Again" strat so that all the cultists killed in the shooting phase can become Poxwalkers. Opponent kills 5 Cultists - I now have 15 Poxwalkers at no extra points cost because the 5 models were simply ADDED to the existing unit. Correct?



2. Pay for a unit of 10 Pink horrors to summon in during a game. Pink horror gets killed, and I pay reinforcement points for the resulting Blue Horrors because they are replacing a model that was destroyed rather than simply being added to the unit. Correct?

Edit: I just googled ablutions and apparently it does not including dropping a duece. I should have looked it up early sorry for any confusion. - Baldsmug

Wait, what were we talking about again? Did I ever tell you about the time I gave you five bees for a quarter? That's what you'd say in those days, "give me five bees for a quarter", is what you'd say in those days. And you'd go down to the D&D shop, with an onion in your belt, 'cause that was the style of the time. So there I was in the D&D shop..."

Covered in the dg faq. No, you have to pay for any models that take you above the starting size.
