Armoured Company Mayhem

[Deleted]

I have found a small problem with Imperial Guard Armoured Companies in 5th Edition.

Only Troops choices are scoring right? But they don't count as scoring if they are a vehicle, right?

So then what happens to an Armoured Company list that can only take Tanks as Troops?

Lets hear any ideas on solving this problem (allies are not a valid answer!)?

My thought was to allow the Armoured Fist units the be scoring as the rulebook states that troops choices stop to hold objectives while everything continues to move ahead and conquer the rest of the battlefield. Well thats what Armoured Fist units would do, is it not?
Anyway, just my thoughts!

Armored fists are the only way to get scoring points, or you can just blast every last opposing model off the table and get a default victory.

"Troop" is the designation for tanks in AC so it should work.

AC makes Tanks as Troops, therefore they are scoring units, and if you managed to get 10 of them for that battle formation, they ALL count as scoring units so long as the HQ tank is mobile.
