Marauders points costs...

[Alexb83]

Okay, MI army book page 31, the base cost of a Marauder trooper is 195 points, but it costs 200 points to add additional marauders (up to three extra) into the squad. Why for do additional troopers cost as much as Corporals?

Is this intentional, or a blooper?

It says the same in the main rulebook. I think its a typo myself. Why pay for Corporals when you are getting Privates?

I've checked with Matthew on this one to make sure we didn't need to revise the army update in this month's S&P Wargamer, and he has told me the listed costs are intentional and do not need changing.

Therefore it does cost 200 points to add a new marauder to the squad, and +5 points on top to upgrade one to a corporal (ignore the costs of 195 and 200 respectively listed in the table and go by the ones listed in the text)
