If my opponent slays my warlord anointed by Shoulder the Mantle do they get double the points? Or is it only for the one warlord chose at the start of the match?

It literally says in the strat "your Warlord is not considered to have been slain while this model is on the battlefield". Can't get Slay the Warlord if they're not dead yet.

OP means if they subsequently kill the “second” warlord as well. Slay the Warlord is a yes/no question rather than a “for each Warlord slain, gain X victory points”, so it would only count once.

To follow up on this, my understanding is that it is a conditional "Did you or did you not slay the enemy Warlord" situation, so no, they would not get double points. Additionally, Shoulder the Mantle states that the chosen model becomes your Warlord and, for the purposes of the mission, your Warlord is not considered to have been slain while that model is on the table. Effectively, the chosen model fully replaces the original slain Warlord for all intents and purposes that pertain to Warlords specifically. The previous Warlord model still gets scored as a unit slain, total points/PL value destroyed, etc. should that be part of the enemies objectives.

Its very simple. Is the warlord destroyed at the end of the battle ? Yes, or no ? If yes, you get the points. If not, no points. Its irrelevant how many times he gets up, and is destroyed again, and again, and again.

SLAY THE WARLORD
End Game Objective
Score 6 victory points at the end of the battle if the enemy WARLORD is destroyed.
