I´m not sure how the victorypoints are calculated. How much points does my opponent get if I call in reinforcements and he doesn´t? What if I don´t use the whole reinforcement-pool but only 25% or 50% ?

Doesn´t anyone really have no idea about this? I know it is usually agreed upon beforehand whether they are called or not, but please, anyone can reply. I´d really like to know.

If you call for reinforcements your opponent automatically gets 25% of the points spent.

Of course if he manages to eliminate your reinforcement units he will get their cost as points as well.

As I rarely use these I am not sure of the actual breakdown of points but Artur is most likely correct. I hadn't looked to see if the Manual addresses that anywhere.

A quote from the manual

"Reinforcement Request

Players can now purchase reinforcements based on 20% of the points spent to make up their
initial force. These reinforcements will show up 1-4 turns later on one of the reinforcement hex #1.
This reinforcement hex is now started on a road hex on the player?s side of the map if possible. If
you use this option during Online play you must have a Time Out still available. 25% of the victory
point?s award for destroying your reinforcement pool is automatically added to your opponent?s
victory points.
A player can request reinforcements every turn as long the player has not spent total of 20% in
points over the initial force and when playing Online play also have a time out available.
Reinforcements Requests can only be made if you have Timeouts available."

The manual can be found in the SPWaW main directory, file name is SPWaW-Manual.pdf. You need to download Acrobat Reader to view it.

Yes thats the sentence I didn´t understand somehow but it´s clear now. Thanks guys. So calling them means you better use them effectively. Though it´s often too late to call them when things are bad already. And if called before things go bad you better annihilate your enemy totally.
