Nova CEWS Battle Value

[TigerShark]

Although Wars of Reaving gives a BV for the unit itself, it does not expand on the method for calculating a network. Since any unit with a Nova CEWS can jump in and out of a chain-linked Trey, how does this factor into a pre-game calculation?

I've asked people with actual skill and experience when it comes to BV before emitting my own thoughts.

Well, looks like they already knocked it out of the park:

Thanks to DarkISI and Paul for the hasty reply and reference:

Page 208, add the following line to the Nova CEWS BV rules:

"In addition to their defensive battle rating Nova CEWSs add 5 percent of the total BV of all friendly units equipped with the system on the battlefield to each of the units equipped with it. This effect applies regardless if the units are linked at the beginning of the game or not. There must be at least two friendly units equipped with Nova CEWS for this rule to apply."
