Loss of a General & Victory Conditions

[greedo]

Excuse the flurry of separate threads, want to make sure these are searchable by other newbies.

I'm reading victory conditions:

1) At least 16 points lost, and more than opponent = game over
2) Loss of camp = 8 additional points + garrisoning troops cost
3) Elements sacking a camp and removed are not counted.

If a general is lost, does that count as an extra point lost? Even though the general is free?
I do see the command control issues with losing a general since every move will now cost +1 PIPs, but does losing a general count as +1 pts for victory?
I don't see it anywhere and am probably confusing it with other rules sets.

Thanks again.

No extra point loss for the General, you count the stand as the cost of the stand type.

So Knight General = 4 points
Pike General = 3 points

Thanks Rod!

I have been playing a bunch of Saga lately so I think that might be infecting my thinking

No, worries, I was playing a Table Top Simulator game yesterday with a new player and he lost his general in the first combat on a 6-1 split

Believe me that is penalty enough, no extra salt for that wound required.

Gutsy move in any game, committing your general to the first clash!
