7th Ed. Skink on Steg - a Victory Points Question

[Aranigej]

Hi guys,

Its been a while since I last posted, but seeing as I have been (and still am actually) verrrry busy it is a bit hard to keep up with everything.

Anyways there is a national tournament coming up in a couple of weeks and I was thinking on a double engine army.

A thought just crept into my mind... if the skink priest takes a single wound, how many victory points does my opponent take? i.e. is the value of the steg (being a mount) taken into consideration?

Also, does my opponent take any victory points if the steg takes 3 wounds?

Hmmm I coulda sworn this was in the FAQ, but I just checked and it isn't. It should be treated no differently to any other monstrous mount I guess, and without having the rulebook on hand I cannot check but I believe it says the rider and mount are counted seperately for victory points.

Yes, one wound off the skink priest would only give victory points half the priest's points, not half of the entire stegadon.
