I've recently picked up a couple of fleet for BFG and had a few trial games with FAQ2010, but I'm slightly confused as to how victory points work with regards to escort squadrons. Faq 2010 states:
"An escort squadron that successfully disengages only counts as being 10% destroyed against the full value of all the escorts in the squadron. It counts as 25% destroyed if the squadron was crippled before disengaging..."
And in the blue book:
"Each destroyed escort ship, planetary defence, installation etc, earns a player a number of victory points equal to the vessel’s or the installation’s points value."
Although FAQ2010 specifies that escorts now yield points based on the state of the entire squadron when disengaging, I couldn't find either there, or on these forums, whether victory points for kills are now calculated on a per squadron basis, instead of per ship.
Does this mean that, for example, I lost 3 Iconoclasts from a squadron of 5
A) The opponent gains 90 points for the kills, and then if I disengaged a further 38 points (25% of the entire squadron)
B) The opponent gains 0 victory points for the first 2 kills, and then 38 points once the squadron is crippled (whether it disengages or not), with 150 victory points if the squadron is destroyed (Extrapolating from capital ship victory points)
I appreciate the help, and apologize if this has been covered.
