Greetings!
I have a problem: If I charge a unit with 25 clanrats giving me +3 rankbonus, and also with my Giant Rats consisting of 3 packs (3 ranks) will that give me +6 for rankbonus in the CR? or do you just count the ranks of the biggest unit in combat?
I don't exactly what it was...
Thanks in advance brother skaven!

Isn't the max rank bonus in combat +3? You would add the two unit's rank bonus' together, but it can never be more that +3.

in multiple combats, you use the the unit with the most ranks for your cr rank bonus. they are not cumilitive

if you have a unit of cr with 3 ranks and gr with 2 ranks, you will only get +2 for the CR... you use the rank bonus of the unit with the most ranks...

Meowser has answered the question concisely and correctly. (nice job)

Anyway, case closed.
"I have a post-Armageddon vision. We and all other large animals are gone. Rodents emerge as the ultimate post-human scavengers. They gnaw their way through New York, London and Tokyo... within 5 million years, a whole range of new species replace the ones we know. Herds of giant grazing rats are stalked by sabre-toothed predatory rats. Given enough time, will a species of intelligent, cultivated rats emerge?"

he is correct but the example is wrong :P. should be getting +3 not +2. closed again...

Opened again.

He's correct in the example. You don't get a rank bonus for the first rank... hence, a unit of 3 ranks gets a +2 rank bonus. You need to be deployed 4 deep for the +3 bonus.


...

I know, I know. You knew that, the way meowser put it just confused you. But I like telling people they're wrong. :P
