I'm trying to establish the composition group rules and am not sure
how to establish that. In the OGRE MINI's Rules there is no "limit this army to"...#; %; pts. (they show you TO&E's and some sample forces but the writers (IMO) assumed a logical approach to force construction would be applied by the players). Most of the time it's "By scenario" and certain items have to be selected. For the most part a "force" can be Infantry, Armor (incl'ds Arty, APC's), GEV's and/or OGRE's. In some scenarios it's an OGRE v. a force of INF, ARM & GEV's defending a Command Post from the OGRE OR OGRE v. OGRE OR forces of INF, ARMOR and GEV's v. another force of INF, ARMOR and GEV's. Everything is point based, so a MKVI OGRE @ 210 pts could go against 180 - 200 pts of INF,ARM, and GEV's or 2 MKIII @ 100 pts ea. Depending on the scenario and terrain these numbers can be adjusted up or down and is at the discretion of the scenario designer. Maybe I pick the wrong game to build in AB... Thanks for the help.

If everything is point based then use the pts system. Each person would design their force to a specific points limit depending on the scenario being played. If you know the different scenarios before hand you can even set validation that is scenario specific by using different race modes, and you can also set which units are available in different scenarios and which ones are required and how many.

OK, so in the basic rules there are absolutely no limits to what you can take, except an overall "X points" limit? >For the most part a "force" can be Infantry, Armor (incl'ds Arty, >APC's), GEV's and/or OGRE's. In some scenarios it's an OGRE v. a >force of INF, ARM & GEV's defending a Command Post from the OGRE OR >OGRE v. OGRE OR forces of INF, ARMOR and GEV's v. another force of >INF, ARMOR and GEV's. For this you'd want to use modes. You could have the default mode be 'no restrictions', so you could take any. If there were common scenarios that people played, that were "1 OGRE vs an army", the other modes could use composition rules appropriately (for example, limiting the army to a single OGRE). That way the user has a choice of what to use. >Everything is point based, so a MKVI OGRE @ 210 pts could go against >180 - 200 pts of INF,ARM, and GEV's or 2 MKIII @ 100 pts ea. >Depending on the scenario and terrain these numbers can be adjusted >up or down and is at the discretion of the scenario designer. And for this, just use the points limit that the user can choose. That way two players can say "Let's play a 250 point game, I'll take an OGRE, you can take the opposing army" and both set an appropriate points limit and use the relevant scenario. Does this help? -- Colen McAlister (colen@wolflair.com) Lone Wolf Development www.wolflair.com ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ---------------------~--> Get A Free Psychic Reading!

I need to clear up two other issues that I have discovered first...
When I click on View, Definition info I get: "Fixed row count must be less than row count". [OK]. Click on Ok and it locks up AB... I have End Task on it to close and then re-open normally. This may be resolved by getting 2.2b... I thought I had v2.2b but I guess I don't but when I tried to download it, I get a message that "it can't find the page" and to check lonewolf.com.....

v2.2c is the latest version... you should definitely download and install
that, it will most likely clear up any problems you are having with using various datafiles.

It seems that we're having server or problems of some sort; this happens sometimes, it usually clears itself up. Try again in a few hours.

I redownloaded and loaded 2.2b of ABCreator and I don't get that issue when
looking at the Def info. And now after opening that, Compositions is MUCH clearer now... I should know better than this... (removes shoe and cracks self in head). I'm a tech support for a software company and that's one of the first things I ask when someone has problems... "What version of the program are you working with"?.... I downloaded it from the link you gave the other guy.
