Terminator games, scoring.

[ebt1972]

So, I suspect its somewhere really obvious, but I cant seem to find a guide to how the scoring works in terminator games. has anyone got an idiots link?

this is copied directly from the instructions section.

''The points to be awarded is calculated as (loser's score / winner's score) * 20, up to a maximum of 100 points from each opponent.''

and that formula applies whether it's a terminator game or a Standard game.

Fair enough, but Im struggling to understand whats different about a terminator game then?..... or is it just played in a thick austrian accent?

In Standard games the formula is applied on a winner-take-all basis. Whoever wins the game gets all the points.

In Terminator games the formula is applied at each elimination. So you only get points for making kills. You could win the game and only get points for one kill, if that's all you got; and you could make all the kills but the last one and lose the game, but still earn the points from the people you took out.

Does that make sense?
