When do terminator points accrue?

Post by bobbythomson »

In a terminator game, does one need to wait until a game is finished to get the terminator points for taking someone out?

Thanks - I just took out my first player in a termination game and expected to see it say I received points somewhere but did not notice if it did. I did get the cards which gave me double reinforcements but in a flat rate game :( How does one determine what the rate of reinforcement is in a flat rate game? bobbythomson

Hey Greys - thanks a million - I found the entry in the log where you suggested looking. Was surprised I only got 30 points as I took out a captain, but then I don't want to be greedy. I will look for the flat rate - I didn't realize it would be written that way. I know you have plenty of training games to monitor so wont add more with a game link :D bobbythomson

30 pts is a nice bounty , i got 63 for my last win in a 6 player game.

However, be aware that for your terminator medal, only the terminator games you win count. If you are like me and calculate where your best points advantage comes in, and don't worry about the win, it can take a while to build towards a medal.

Just so you don't wonder why your medal numbers don't go up while you are taking lots of terminations.

The far bigger problem is that for medals it is counting unique kills. If you are playing with the same people a lot (as most of us do) all those repetitive kills don't count.
