What's the right way to divvy up Victory Points for a Last Chancers unit?

If you take 5 subunits of 4 guys each, do you give half points if 11+ guys in total are killed?

Or do you treat each sub unit as a unit for VP purposes? If one cost 50 points and was wiped out, does the opponent get all 50 points?

Can a subunit claim a table quarter? Anything else I need to know about the Last Chancers?

Thanks

I sort of treat them like Death Company. In other words, whatever the squad is at the start of the battle is what it's starting strength is.

So a 3 man melta team is a 3 man squad requiring 2 members to be killed to not score. The squads are counted seperately not all 20 at once (unless they were never split at the start of the game). This (like the Death Company method) are common ways of playing without being explicitly spelled out in the rules.

There is no rule about them NOT being able to claim quarters.

The only other thing you need to know is that they are (I think) the most valuable special character choice the Guard have. The ability to spread around fearlessness is worth it's weight in gold in V4, especially when we have dropping Librarians and super alien pinning weapons.
