Thanks for the suggestion. I downloaded BA 2.0 and looked around a bit.

It looks to me like there is support to keep units from appearing in Nations' lists of units, but nothing to prevent a particular Nation from appearing in the list of Nations.

I don't really know Bolt Action, but an example of what I'm trying to achieve might be Flames of War. The original rules only supported Europe and Africa. Later rules introduced the Pacific Theatre. This means that the faction/nation/race Japan is completely absent in the original rules.

Given that scenario, I would like to use some kind of setting (like a ruleset or some other user-modifiable mechanism) to specify if the original rules should be used (no Japan!) or the new rules (Japan is included).

I hope that makes sense. If there's something like that in the BA 2.0 data files, would you mind telling me where to look for it?
