Hi,

Assume I have a squad that is guarding Prisoners. I run this
squad with Prisoners through residual FP and the Prisoners gets
Casaulty Reduced/eliminated.

Does that still count as if the enemy killed them (thus still awarding me
doubel CVP) ?

Regards,
Klas

Sure, it was your opponent that rolled the dice.

I'm not sure this is correct. But I can't find the relevant passage in the rule book. Any help? Where does it say you get double VP if your opponent causes the casualties.

To clarify, I know such a statement is in there, I just want to check the exact wording. It doesn't seem reasonable to me (i.e. too gamey) that a player can run prisoners thro residual to collect double points.

Prisoners/Unarmed units eliminated by fire from their own side still count double for Vicotry Conditions.
It is gamey, but that is a problem the scenario designer has to be aware of when chosing VC.
