The 'Unit X has too few weapons' message is, in fact, a bug within Army
Builder. Rob explains:

>least ONE global validation rule, this bug never materialized before. By
>global, I mean a rule that spans the entire roster, such as "trat", "tlmt",
>etc.

It will probably be fixed in the next version of AB, until then there is
a trivial workaround. Just add the attribute:

tlmt:none-pct=100@max

To the 'race' records of the 3 Tyranid armies (using ABCreator). This
will, of course, be included in the next version of the files.

Thanks to Rob for working all this out, and for the explanation. :)
