The Bonus Ability for the Pursuit Lance (p. 120) says "75 percent of the units in this formation receive ..." with no reference to rounding up or down.  (Other formations typically say to round down ability bonuses).

I don't want to assume, but is this round down?

75% would be round normal. (otherwise even a level II would still be 3, same as a lance).  Striker/Cavalry and Pursuit Lance are both 75% and should be round normal.

Lance gets 3, Star gets 4, Level II gets 4.

Thank you so much for the quick answer.

So, is "rounding normally" the default rule?  I couldn't find a default rounding rule in the core rules.  Would it make sense to throw that in the errata?

PS - I really appreciate you taking the time to answer these questions.

No, it's not a default. I did add to errata that the 75%s are round normal.
