Rules question, light MG & loader

[Carl E. Corrado]

Sorry guys, but just want to clarify for myself.

When it calls for 1 LMG (+loader) and 8 inf. Does the LMG loader
count as part of the 8 infintry or in addition to the 8 Infintry?

Thanks,

Carl

Can you clarify where you’re looking when you say “When it calls for…”?

Someone’s army list?

A suggested list on a boxed set?

One of the list making utilities like Army Builder or Easy Army?

Generally, the LMG gunner and loader come from the total strength of the squad.

ie:

Squad of regulars comes with NCO and four men (all rifles) for 50 points
Add 3 men with rifles for 30 points (total now 80 points, NCO with rifle and 7 men with rifles)
One man replaces rifle with LMG for 20 points, one man becomes loader (total now 100 points, NCO with rifle, 2 man LMG team, and 5 men with rifles).
