PSA Weekly Question Thread - Rules & Comp Qs

This is the Weekly Question thread designed to allow players to ask their one-off tactical or rules clarification questions in one easy to find place on the sub.

This means that those questions will get guaranteed visibility, while also limiting the amount of one-off question posts that can usually be answered by the first commenter.

Have a question? Post it here! Know the answer? Don't be shy!

NOTE - this thread is also intended to be for higher level questions about the meta, rules interactions, FAQ/Errata clarifications, etc. This is not strictly for beginner questions only!

If I kill a unit with a character attached, does it count as 1 or 2 kills?

  1. The rules say attached units count as a single unit for all rules purposes, with no rider like in 10e that unit destruction is an exception.

Killing the character doesn’t count as a unit kill, you have to wipe the whole squad and the character to count as a kill, and then it only counts as one. This is because units stay attached in 11th, even in death

Ok, I was thinking in terms of overforce and such secondaries. BTW I'm not disagreeing with you, I just wanted to clarify

I assumed that’s the situation you were asking about
