After (hopefully) sorting out the High Elf files, I've taken a shot at the Orc and Goblin files. Any bugs, please post here.
 
O&G bug

Hey there,

I was just goofing around with the O&G and I noticed you can't take the extra crew member on a chariot that you have bought for a character.

FAQ 1.1 for O!G

Q. Can chariots for character take options and upgrades? (p48)
A. Yes.

Figured I would let you know ... thanks for the awesome work... I am a huge (and paying) fan of AB ...

Some typo type bugs for O&G ..

  • Orc Spell List #5 Gork's Warpath. Says 'on 4+ stomp unit and repeat'. Should be on 5+. (O&G p41)
  • Choppa - Should specify bonus only can be used if you are on foot. Something like: +1 Strength in first round of combat, if on foot. (O&G p18)
  • Goblin Spear Chucka - Should have page 111 for Bolt Thrower rules, not page 124 (BRB 111). Also would be nice to have the basic weapon stat line in there for reference: 48" Range, Strength 6, Multiple Wounds (D3). Ignores Armor Saves
  • Night Goblin Fanatics - This isn't really a correction, so much as a question/request. Not sure if it fits in with the normal idea of data entered into army builder, but the fanatics as-in don't list any special rules. Maybe add something like this: Cannot be charged. Release the Fanatics: When unit concealing are within 8" of enemy release fanatics 2D6" in any direction. Further Movement: 2D6 in random direction. Splat: When moving through a unit, inflict D6 S5 armor piercing hits. Remove fanatic when: contacting any terrain, roll double for movement (except on release), unit ends move over (unit takes D6 S5 AP hits). Hmmm ok after typing that out maybe it is a bit much to include, I dunno. :) (O&G p25)
Thanks a ton for putting in the work to update this and other books, overall it really is quite awesome. I would have thrown myself off of the roof if I had to do all this by hand. :)
 
All above errors fixed. I have added the Fanatic rules, which I shamelessly copied from you. I looked at a print preview, and whilst it does have a few words, I think it will be OK. If anyone thinks it's a bit much, just let me know.
 
I saw that you have fixed the extra crew issue with characters on chariots, but you missed the "extra wolf" option for goblin wolf chariots with a charcater on it.
 
Forest Spider Riders - I believe their armor save should be 5+ not 4+ that is listed. If you choose a 'boss' for this unit, it list his save as a 5+.

Thanks UltraPrime for your work!

Thanks UltraPrime for your work!

I think I got carried away with the monster mount changes. Fixed now!

Hepp Hoi :)
Savage Orcs when upgraded to Big Uns cant take a magic banner...

Great work guys :)

Fixed. I sent updated files to Silks before making this change, so if it's not in next update, will be in one after.

Steve

Edit - I also added basic Animosity notes. Just cuz ;)

They do.



Again, the rules are already there.

What version of file are you using?

Warhammer Fantasy V8 Data Files
version 1.4

That's the last one that has come across Army Builder for updates on my end. Last updated on 2 Sept 2010. Am I missing something?

And I see my mistake, it doesn't show on the right hand side that it has these abilities but does show up when you use 'show unit info'.

Sorry about that Ultra.

And now back to your regularly schedule programs.
