1st: Vamp Lord, in his little box below the Composition Summary is listed as a Magic Level 1 when no options are picked. When you select the Level 1 Wizard option (for zero points) he becomes Magic Level 2 in that readout above. When you select level 2, he stays level 2. However, within the TEXT of that box, it does accurately reflect the level as it should appear, and also on his actual profile.

2nd: A few spelling errors within the Vampiric Powers descriptions - "Opponent" is written as "opponant" in a couple of items. Also appears in Mortis Engine description for Blasphemous Tome.

3rd: Coven Throne says "reroll to Hit and Two Wound..." instead of To Wound.

4th: Krell has a little "x" next to his name. Should that be flagging there?

5th: Heinrich Kemmler's Cloak of Mists and Shadows would possibly be better described as "Grants either the Fly or Ethereal special rule each turn."

6th: Coven Throne description has the word "occypy" instead of "occupy". Battle Of Wills description has the word "itsels" instead of "itself".

7th: The Newly Dead description has italics markup tags around "Invocation Of Nehek".

8th: The Dark Acolyte Vampiric Power has the word "ads" instead of "adds".

9th: When the Ironcurse Icon and The Cursed Book are selected, the error message "xxx: Too Many Enchanted Items" is flagged.

Lastly: Chaos Tomb Blade probably should state that it creates Skeletons OR Grave Guard in the description text; the mouse-over description does say this, but it would be better to clarify if possible in the basic text.


With regard to the 9th point: It appears the problem may be that The Cursed Book is listed as an Arcane Item but may be flagged incorrectly as an Enchanted Item. (The problem occurs with any Enchanted item in the list, not just the Ironcurse Icon!)

Cheers!

Silent25 can you delete the warhammer game system completely and redownload it, you seem you be the only person with this error, so it makes sense to just try that first. if you have already tried that, completely removing army builder and re-installing at from scratch may help, bit severe but worth a try.

yajnaji These bug were fixed on a late day one fix. Could be you got the earlier one. re-update the files and see if that helps.

Everything else I can validate, the only awkward list breaker is the Forbidden lore which makes it impossible to make list with those lores selected.

If Ultraprimes happy with it, i'll pop out a mini-update on the forums again possibly tommorow.

I'm basically using bugs on this file to learn ABcreator so later I can do my own stuff.
Could be Ultraprimes already fixed this stuff, in which case I'll leave it be.

UltraPrime February 20th, 2012 01:52 PM
I haven't got round the addressing these yet. I'm attempting to learn how to do things more efficiently, so I've been trying to create a file from scratch (not warhammer, LotR if you are interested) in order the better familiarise myself with ABC.

Vreith February 22nd, 2012 04:36 PM
Hey Prime, thanks for all your effort!

Just a few things ive noticed, some have already been stated, the ones that aren't:

Heinrich Kemmler is LD9 not 8, this also produces a error when choosing Krell for your army, as it tells you it wants Krell as your general for Highest LD, but the army book trumps that because it needs to be a wizard, which Heinrich Kemmler is.

Also can you add to the list is "invalid" parameters (or what ever there called) that if you select general, but if it is not a wizard, not the highest leadership, and has not selected lore of the vampires it becomes a invalid choice?

Blood knights can not take any other magic banner bar the blood keep, remove the option for him to take another in there options?

Skeletal steeds need to not lose movement to barding, the new rule is, unless non ethereal movement things join them (such as nightmares) they get ethereal for movement purpose AND they have no barding penalties, I.e movement not reduced in the builder.

Is it possible to get al lthe special characters to have thier blood line powers added to there choices when building a army? currently only Konrad shows out of them (red fury)

the -1 LD aura of dark majesty is not stackable with the same of it's type, may want to add that, but i guess the list writer should know anyway

Forbidden lore doesn't turn up all the other lore's (except life) atm, but this one has already been stated.

can't think of any more atm, but ile post if i do!

UltraPrime February 22nd, 2012 09:35 PM
I shall get round to this shortly, but I should point out that the Ld issue is a printing error. Check the main rules, army list, and summary - 2 times out of 3 I am correct :)

necros point charge
 
the necros as hero in the vampire counts are getting a 15 point discount for taking the lore of vampires (-15 points from total of army).

Error message vampire counts
 
Hi

I downloaded the 2.40 update a little while ago and have not used the programme until today I now get the message

File: vampirecounts.dat (line 805) - Unrecognized attribute 'equipment' in element 'link'

and I cannot open any files in the fantasy 8th edition system

Some help would be much appreciated

Thanks

In which case, although i do not completly agree they can, War banner for them is undercosted at 25 pts, they use common out of the BRB now and that's 35pts

Have you tried a clean re-install?

McTaff March 2nd, 2012 06:01 AM
Ironfists don't seem to be stopping characters from using two handed magic weapons, nor double weapons.

It is late and I'm tired and can't be bothered looking up the rules, but it doesn't look right?

Definitely not right, what with ironfists being an Ogre item...

Hi Vreith

Thanks for replying

Yes reinstalled Warhammer Fantasy and the problem was still there. I reinstalled update 3.39 and the problem was gone so am using that version at present.

Thanks

Nightstalker March 6th, 2012 10:39 PM
If you use the necromacer as hero/general, adding speels from the lore of vampires results in a 15 reduction of figure point cost for all spells i.e cost of hero 120 - 15 = 105

I have no idea what may be causing this. I've tried to replicate your error but it works fine, even installing on another machine.

Thanks

Fixed.

A vampire riding a coven throne is not currently given the 4+ ward save on the profile. According to the book he should have it as it doesn't say crew only.

Actually unless specified in the Army Book, the BRB says "we assume that special rules that apply to a ridden monster [chariot mounts for characters use ridden monster rules] do not normally apply to the character riding it and vice versa." (Page 105)

It's the same deal with the new Empire War Altar. In the last book it specifically stated that the rider used the ward save of the altar, but that was removed in the new book.

Unless stated, the rider does not get the mount's special rules and vice versa.

Heinrich Kemmler Leadership
 
Folks, just to let you know picked up that Heinrich Kemmler is showing as Leadership 8 but should be leadership 9.

Best Wishes,

Best Wishes,
this needs to be clarified by a GW FAQ. As it stands, two out of three profiles show him as Ld8, so until I see otherwise, thats what it is.

chrisjohn85 April 17th, 2012 07:25 PM
Two things I've noticed.

1. Zombie Dragon has incorrect Stats, should have WS of 4

2. The unit champion of Grave Guard is listed as Leadership 8, should be 6

And by the way, thank you so much for this software, it has made my gaming and planning much easier!

When choosing a Necromancer, and you give him all of the vamp spells, you get a 15 Pt reduction in cost.

Thanks! Keep up the good work!

Nightmare twins for fat bottomed Vampires? :-)
 
Hi everybody!

when i add a barded Nightmare to:
vampire lord, vampire, master necromancer and both Mannfreds, the column '#' shows two models, so a vampire on a barded nightmare counts as a 3 models unit.
Other little bug is when you choose Cairn Wraith as hero, AB says it's a lvl 1 mage.
Thank you for your job, AB is great!

Kastellan
 
kastellan's profile has In 4 instead of 5.
Thanks

More updates
 
I was wondering if there is going to be more updates to the Vampire Counts data file. The reason i ask is some of the points have changed on different units and abilitys. I know that the army book has been out for a while now.

Which update are you referring to?

Heinrich Kemmler stats
 
The book shows Heinrich leadership as 9 but in army builder it is showing as 8. That means I can't add Heinrich as a general with Krell because of lower leadership. Is this a bug
