Adjusted algorithm (for use in computer spreadsheet)

Custom Models

Adjusted Points = round((CS*5) + ability points)*(7-Q)/2)

Designing a warband for DeepWars starts with picking

one of the four main forces, but players may want to design
their own models also. In that case, they will need to calculate
the models point cost using the following algorithm.
Step 1. base points = (Combat x 5) + ability points
Step 2. adjusted points = base points x (7 - Quality) / 2
Step 3. add points for Special Items, Armor and Weapons
Step 4. round down points sum to nearest 10

Special Items, weapons and armor are simply added to

the Adjusted Point value. The value for those items is shown
on the following pages.
Making custom models is a balancing act between
giving interesting abilities and making sure that they do not
conflict. Personalities, shown in bold in the table, cannot
have other special abilities reserved for Personalities.
It is a good idea to look at the existing model profiles
and make new ones that fit in with a force.
