Options

(Rule)
Description: In this part of the unit profile illustrated in figure figure/unit_entry_options, you will find all the optional and mandatory upgrades that can be bought for a unit when building the army.

10 - Command Group options


Certain units have one or more Command Group Options in their unit entry, which allow them to upgrade one model of the unit to a Champion, another model to a Musician, and another model to a Standard Bearer. This means that a single R&F model cannot be upgraded to be a Musician and a Standard Bearer at the same time. In addition, each unit can only upgrade models to a single Champion, a single Musician, and a single Standard Bearer.

Note that upgrading the unit with a Champion/Musician/Standard Bearer does not grant you extra models for the unit as you upgrade models that are already part of the unit.

Some Command Group models have additional options for upgrades, for instance the Standard Bearer in the example above can purchase a Banner Enchantment. These options are listed indented underneath the corresponding Command Group model. In order to have access to such an additional upgrade, you must first upgrade a model to the corresponding Command Group model, and only then you can buy the upgrade for that model.

11 - Unrestricted options


Many units have options to upgrade their models with weapons, armour, certain Model Rules, etc. In some cases, the Point Cost per unit is indicated, regardless of the number of models, while in others, like in the example above, the unit entry gives the Point Cost per model.

Note that if you choose to buy such an upgrade, you must always upgrade all models of the unit accordingly.

12 - Restricted options


Certain options may come with restrictions. These may for instance be associated with an altered maximum number of models per unit (in the example above 25 instead of 50), or with a restriction regarding the number of units with the upgrade an army may contain (up to 2 units in the example above). Another possible restriction is an upper limit on the total number of models with a given upgrade per army. In this case, the sum of all models of all units with that upgrade in the army may not exceed that upper limit.

Other options cannot be combined with one another. These are listed indented underneath One choice only in the unit entry. In the example above, the models in the unit may be upgraded either with Shields or with Paired Weapons, they may however not gain Shields and Paired Weapons.

In case there are several groups of these One choice only upgrades for a unit, the unit may be given up to one choice of each group.

13 - Model Rules


In case a unit profile contains any unit-specific Model Rules, these rules will be explained in this part of the unit entry.
