Hello,

What will happen if your character on the last click does a critical miss?
It will be removed from the game and who will get points for that character?

Best regards,

1- the character is KO’d

2- an opponent scores it’s points. Not sure if it’s just a house rule at my venue but when we play Battle Royale (4 players on a 2x2 map) the opponent in this case is the one who last damaged that character or whose turn came immediately before the active player if no other damage was dealt.

That’s what I was about to say. Essentially, the last opposing player to deal damage to that character before he goofed and did himself in like the college kids from Dale & Tucker vs Evil gets the points.

What if you somehow damage yourself to death without your opponent ever touching you? Same thing?

Points go to the opponent or, assuming no opponent dealt any damage to the figure, split among all opponents.

I'm PRETTY sure this hasn't ever changed.

5.4a Scoring Victory Points
Victory points are scored as follows:
▪ Every character that started the game on an opponent’s force or Sideline and was KO’d earns you victory points equal to the point value corresponding to its starting line that game.

26.3 Scoring in Multi-Player Games
When a game element is KO’d, the player whose turn it is scores it unless it’s a game element from their force or Sideline. In that case, if it’s a character that was damaged by an opposing character, the player (even a defeated player) whose character most recently damaged it scores it. Otherwise, divide its victory points equally among all undefeated players at the end of the game.

Remember everyone. Watch out for banana peels.

Thank you everyone!
You clarified this for me.

Now I remember why we house ruled it. There were some issues:

Rounding up only applies or at least referenced to combat values not point values and victory points are calculated assumed using whole numbers. Things referencing ‘fraction thereof’ are text specific.

If no player was defeated the force it included also divided victory points for their own KO’d game element. They didn’t get points but were part of the divy?

I posted to WIN in 2020 and was ignored. It’s hardly ever come up since as BR’s don’t typically take long enough to get called to time but there are enough characters that KO their own objects and equipment that dividing victory points should be more than cut and pasted from 2012 with no update. I get the feeling they don’t particularly care for or support multi-player formats anymore hence the ghosting.

Considering it seems like every SLOP event is recommended as a Battle Royale, I'd agree that they should clarify.
