Eldar Datafile error?

Hi Gang-
Running the Ulthwe army list I have some warlocks with
witchblades and shuripistols. I have scoured the
rulebook and every codex and have not found anywhere
that states that the witchblade requires two hands to
use, the singing spear yes but not the blade.

So I noted that I was not given an extra attack on the
stat profile for having two close combat weapons.
Anyone able to set me straight or is this really
something that needs to be corrected??

Thanks
RK

What version of the Datafiles are you using. Current ver. is 2.32 (very soon
to be 3.0)

I just tried it out, to verify, and it appears to work fine. I made warlocks
in both normal eldar and Ulthwe, I gave them Shuriken Pistols and Witchblade
(as you described) and it works fine. I get 1/2 for the AT stat.

I am using 2.32c. I also just updated the datafiles
yesteday too.

When I update the datafiles I "save as" the old army
but it would appear that is not working and the old
list is being kept somehow.

I guess I have to recreate the army list everytime a
new datafile is released?

Thanks for the quick reply!

Only specific units that had problems which are now fixed.

Rule of thumb: Before complaining, see if the problem occurs when you
create a new unit in a new roster, rather than just loading up some dodgy
saved file you created with AB1.1 back in 1992 (or whenever).
