Check out the rmdr local unit attribute. That should get you
started :-)

Cheers,

Subject: missing Needle Pistol

I have just tried creating an =I= warband and I discovered that the
only Needle pistol available was a digi-version, can I fix this
myself or do I need to wait for an update??

Subject: Has umax changed?

Hello,
Can someone confirm this behavior?

The BFG files have a unit with the attribute umax:1m-min=1000
Another unit has umax:1m@1000-part
Neither of these do what they used to do. The umax with the min tag
should limit the unit to fleets over 1000 points only. The umax with
the part tag would allow 1 unit for every 1000 points in the fleet or
part thereof.

To check these in the BFG files, create a chaos space marine fleet.
Take the Planet Killer. The PK has the min restriction but I don't
see a validation error for this.
Remove the PK from the fleet and add 2 Battle Barges. The BB has the
part tag. Again, I see no validation errors for this.

Units using umax:1m without any other tags work fine.

I'm using AB2.2c, construction kit 2.2b, and Windows 98.

Thanks,
Hugo

It's a pilot error problem within AB :-)

If you create an unlimited size roster, the validation works
correctly (well, it did for me when I tried it just then)

If you create a 1000pt roster, you've already told AB how big your
force is, it's 1000pts. You can have 1 PK in 1000pts, and you've
told AB you've got 1000pts so there's no problem :-) If you create
an army of 999pts, you'll notice the validation is triggered when
you add the PK....
