Scenario Points Value
A precise tool.
What is the Scenario Points Value & How does it work?
In tabletop wargames, each unit carries a point cost that reflects its combat effectiveness, durability, and special abilities.
When assembling an army list, players multiply the number of each unit type by its individual cost and sum the results to obtain the base army value.
Scenario modifiers, such as terrain or special rules, are applied as a multiplier to the base total, yielding the final scenario points value.
left( sum_{i=1}^{N} n_i cdot c_i right) times M
n_i = number of units of type i, c_i = point cost per unit i, M = scenario multiplier
