<Wlist@pekan.demon.co.uk> got up to write: >In this article Colen 'Not Colin' McAlister & The Skrills ><demandred@skrill.org> wrote >>Hmm... no, it's 'nasty'. >> >>Various special characters can also take Retinues as well.

That is - reqd:unit=orWarbss@1u:1u for the >warbosses retinue and reqd:unit=orPainbs@1u:1u for the Painboss >bodyguard and reqd:unit=orMekbod@1u:1u for the Big Mek body guard. All 3 >would require limiting to one unit as well. Actually it could also be >reqd:unit=orWarbss@1u:1m given that the leader is only 1 model If I was going to do it, that's how it would be done. >Doesn't seem that nasty I may try it out just to see if it works.
