Hey Colen

One fine day in the middle of the night, Jonathan Hurley
<silvercat@dreamseeker.org> got up to write:

I thought it would look more internally consistent (not to mention being
easier for me to handle) if there were seperate {Grand} Master of the
Deathwing entries from the usual Master and Grand Master. In a Deathwing
army he's not treated as a special character, you may notice. If enough
people object violently, I'll change it; does anyone have any strong
opinions on the matter?

As soon as you add him, the terminator armour cost of 25 points kicks
in.

Thanks!




BTW: I apologise to the group for the currently flood of my messages
invading it. Normal service will be resumed shortly.
