Huzzah! To War!

Thank you to all who tracked bugs, and the heroes who took so many hours to code the file rules !

Huzzah !

Anyone else having problems uploading it? Keeps saying I need the newest version of Army Builder?
Time of Madness

What version do you have?

32a I believe and my licence has expired. Is this a situation where I'll have to get 33b and renew my licenc?

2 mins...

It worked, thank you very much!
Time of Madness

No worries. I just tagged it as needing 3.3 for no real reason, wasn't thinking lol.

OK, 2.2 uploaded. Keep those bug reports coming - I want this release to be bug free!

My army builder is showing that there is an update available for Fantasy. So I import it and it's still saying an update is available. I've downloaded the 2.0 and 2.1 already this must be the 2.2. I tried importing it twice in a row and I'm still getting the alert.

It's the old age getting to me....

Should work fine now.

Will it be possible to get the Warband and Veteran Skills back?
Or is there an easy way to lower the unit size requerements?

You will need to use 1.20. Warbands and Vet Skills are not an 8th edition rule.

Warbands are fun!
 

Come on, Warbands rules can stay. I'm really going to miss those rules being in there.

How do you have v1.20 installed at the same time as the new version....doesn't it automatically replace the old files?

You need to rename your wf8 to something like wf8-1.20 and then install a new directory for wf8
