In the old Nid codex? No. Never read or heard about such a rule.
In the new codex? I do not know. Will not get it until 1 Juni. Bot i have not heard about a single rumor or actual quote from the nex codex, that such a rule exists.


No problem, I'll give you a 100% increase in pay effective immediately and retroactive to 1999.

The Without numbers-rule has some similarities with that, but if your friend is trying to cheat you ask to read his codex for the ruling. If he won't let you; better not play him again.

me and my friend are working out the without number rule (in the game where you simply try to anniahlate the other team) like so every time you kill them, they come back but they already cout as destroyed so no need to destroy them again to win
No good deed goes unpunished

sweet merciful unforgiving blasphamouse overbearing uncomprimisable undefeated immortal mortal godlike kitchen sink-- yep thats me

Life is a wonderful journy, pitty about the destination though.

That seems about right. This is why "killing the other guy" is not a normal mission to play, but you play for some objective, and over time. When time runs out you gather your points. If you have killed a "without number"-unit several times over 6 turns you get points for every time you kill it, if yo uare using VPs.
