IA Thunderbolt Fighter

[Gothmog]

This is missing from the latest update. Does anyone know why?

What roster options do you have enabled, and which army? I've just loaded up an IG list, turned on Imperial Armour, and the Thunderbolt is under Heavy Support where it's supposed to be.

[Gothmog]

Nope. It's not there. Weird.

[Spack]

If you want some help, please include the army you're using and the roster options you have enabled. I can't help if you don't give me any way to reproduce the problem.

I'm using ver 1.43 Trying to build an IG apoc army (unlimited points). Roster options are Apoc, special characters, and Imperial armour.

Apoc allies is set at trusted and untrusted.

Scenario is set at normal mission.

The Lightning is listed but I do not see the Thunderbolt on any list.

[Gothmog]

Ok. I found it. The only place it's listed is in the "all units" tab at the bottom of the list. In the roster summary it's listed as a "other" unit, between legend and formation.

If you turn off Imperial Armour you'll find it listed under "Legendary" - the one in the Apocalypse rulebook is listed as being a Legendary unit and not a standard FOC slot as it's a flyer, see page 182 of the Apocalypse rulebook.

There is a glitch when Imperial Armour is also ticked, this has been reported in the bug tracker at http://www.ab40k.org - when both Apocalypse and IA are enabled the Thunderbolt unit entry loses it's unit type due to it being in both the Apoc rulebook and the IA rules.

thanks for the info!

I just noticed that when I add a thunderbolt fighter to my army lists it does not use the current one from IA Aeronautica, instead it references the Apocalypse book. The one in IA Aeronautica has options for Skystrike missles and several other upgrades.
