Generator, dumb question

[lexthilian]

I was playing around with the warband generator and I had some questions about the point totals. I'm probably missing something in how it calculates the units, but here goes.

I have a Quality 4, Combat 2 unit and the point cost is 15.
I'm assuming that the numbers in parenthesis for the special abilities are the point cost for that ability (maybe I'm wrong). When I add Animal, which is -3, the point total goes down to 11. 15 -3 is 12 not 11. I then add Free Disengage which is 3. The point cost goes back up to 15 from 11. I then add Long Move, which is 10, the point cost should go up to 25 from 15 but instead goes up to 30.

As I said earlier, maybe I'm missing something obvious in how this all gets calculated, if so could someone please tell me how this all works out.

Thanks

the points formula is:
total points = (Combat*5) + ability points)*(7-Quality)/2

So, the amount of points an ability costs is based on the number next to it in the generator, but also influenced by the quality of the model.

Thanks, just wanted to know.
