Hi guys, in my new 2.5k LM list I have 2 Scar-vets on Carnosaurs, so I already have 624 point of Heroes.

Does the points to make one a BSB add in to the 25% limit, or is it seperate?

Thanks,

Lucarikx

Yes, it does. Everything that costs points counts towards the %-limit.

**DukeRustfield**

Yah. A model cost is a model cost. Liz can choose to put the BSB at the Hero level or Lord level, but it still is going to limit one of them.

**Niteware**

How much do LM need a BSB now? They seemed to cope without it in the old book.

**DukeRustfield**

5 LD for skinks even cb isn't great. And get a magic banner. Frenzy

**Sigvatr**

Every army needs a BSB.

**nosferatu1001**

BSB is just too good, and on a LD9 general it is also great. Assuming they dont lose combat...

I never saw a LM army without a BSB. The reroll is just too good

Except undead armies.

Oh, Lucarikx, have you considered a Slaan BSB? The points would come out of your Lord slot in that case.

Undead still often take the BSB, although for different reasons. Namely its another magic banner slot and -1 crumble is always nice.
