Unless I missed something, any non-vehicle, non-swarm troops choices scores. No stipulation is made for size of the unit. So even the last guy scores.
And even one of any other model (including vehicles, swarms, and IC) can contest, preventing the other guy from scoring.
Am I right on that?

That does appear to be correct, yes.

I've discovered you'll have to actually wipe out whole units. Which is a huge change. No ideas about the extent of the impact of that yet, but it certainly makes some units sound very, very attractive.
I'm really thinking a guard army with sisters allies will wreck alot of top tier stuff that it couldn't deal with before.

The question I want to know, is what happens when all the objectives are contested? Who wins then?

Victory points decide.

I think I said that.
Non-troops can contest though, correct?
