Skaven Bugs

[wildcardukfra]

Hi

Sorry to mention this but I've just noticed a bug with the Skaven.

When creating a 2,000pts list I have Lord Skrolk as my General and 4 Units of 30 Plague monks all with full command which are now core not special because of Skrolk's ability to make Plague Monks a core choise, the option to select them into the army moves to the Core Tab and the points spent fills the core points bar, however at the bottom of the screen it mentions that I have "Too many of the same Special", this then causes it to say that my army list is illegal when trying to save it.

hope this description helps

yours

not a big deal but Rat Swarms and Stormvermin have Max Choices: 1 listed in their unit details window.

[genx3000]

both of these problems have now been fixed

Reposted from the primary thread:

- In units of Rat Ogres, Packmasters are incorrectly capped at (# Rat Ogres / 2). Per the Skaven FAQ, this should be ((# Rat Ogres /2) + 1). ("Q. Can I take a unit consisting of 2 Rat Ogres and 2 Packmasters when I pick an army? (p104) A. Yes.")

Whips for packmasters and master moulders currently state that whips can attack over any number of ranks of giant ranks. It should state that whips can attack over 3 ranks of giant rats max.

Noticed that this wasn't fixed in v1.4 release. Just a heads up for next update.

The fix for this is pretty simple. It requires two changes. First, in the Rule bskRatOgre you have to raise the allowance (I added 2 to the right-hand-side of the comparison to get "entity.count[effective] +2") and then in the Option bskOgremas you need to modify the size and increase @maximum by 1 (simple +1 at the end).

Thanks alot gonna try this out and see if it works. Hopefully it will be ready by next update (1.6).

EDIT: It worked. Also fixed Clawleaders save to 6+ (not 5+). Hopefully these will be included in next update.

As Rat Ogres are Monstrous Infantry, might be good to list "Stomp" in addition to Fear and Frenzy when you print out a roster list.
