Just a few Questions, answers greatly appreciated:

1. i am confused a little on the Plague censer bearers, what i mean is they are a little difficult for me to understand as far as freindly hits go, i will use an example to explain: 10 PCB's charge a unit of 16 saurus, 4 wide 4 back, now i know that 4 saurus take toughness tests to see if the vapours kill them but i am confused with the plague censers. say the plague censer bearers i arrange 5 wide and 1 rank back, for my own hits do i take 10 hits or only 5 as the ones in combat itself?

2. if a character is in a unit at the corner and is in combat with a plague flail then does 2 models get hit or 3, corner to corner?

any answers will be greatly appreciated as i am soon to be collecting the bubonic court, thanks in advance for any help.

It states in the Skaven book "..all models in base contact with one or more models armed with a censer must take a toughness test.." So I assume you need to take 10 tests or at least thats what the wording seems to suggest.

Three because corner to corner is counted as base contact

Well thats just my opinions but I could be wrong....
