1. Because it _doesn't_ say in the Armoured Company codex "you may
give your Commissar and/or Commander a custom vehicle"
2. Custom vehicles are assigned a category depending on what type and
size they are - there was a chart in the VDR in WD.

p.s. if you have a nice tank to use for your Commissar, ask your
opponent if they mind you using it. Even if it's not 'official', it's
your game. I would.

cheers
Edward

ok.. just a few minor problems with the file I saw

1. When adding the rune of stone to armour, it decreases the armour
save rather than increasing. IE, if you have Heavy Armour (5+) and
add rune of stone, you now have an AS of 6+ rather than 4+.

2. No dispell dice are shown (this is probably being worked on and
not too much of a problem)

3. You can't take more than 1 solo copy of the rune of stone.

otherwise the files are great

C>Thanks for the comments I will put these on the bug list. Making data

Hello!

First I want to thank all the fine folks who have done all the great data
files for us!

Of course if there is a first... Second I´d like to ask if Gotrek and Felix
will be included into the DoW files.

Thanks again,

Dieter

C>Gotrek and Felix is in the DoW files under Rare - it is also available to
the other races as appropriate.

in it? Or know where to get it?

I would also like to thank those who diligently add and update all
these ab files.

A few problems I've seen with the new dwarf addon.

1. Giant Slayers are getting 2 extra attacks for a 2nd weapon instead
of just 1. Also they cost 15 pts not 26.

2. More than one master rune can be placed on an item.

3. Cannons can get 3 runes and then 3 more can be placed on it.

4. Miner Prospectors are 12 pts not 10.

5. Thanes get 50 pts of runes not 100.

6. Rune Lords get 150 pts of runes not 100.

7. Daemon slayers get 100 pts of runes not 50.

8. Dwarf Engineers get handguns for 14 pts not 15.

Subject: Fixing 'failed to load'

Hey,
I created some data files that were working fine, then I
encountered an 'internal error' while modifying a unit. Now ABC
tells me that it has 'failed to load specified data file or its
corresponding def file' and AB tells me that an 'unexpected memory
resize error while loading data file' has occured.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Jay

Subject: Restrict by Stat vaule

Hey Folks,

I'm doing work with the Lustria design team to bring you some quality
AB files for Lustria. I hope to have the first installation out very
soon, the new edition of AB and ABC stymied me a bit, but I'm back
on track.

My question is, is there a way to restrict an Item to models with a
stat higher than a certain value?

Thanks

Chris

I see your point. I can always use the model as a stand in for
a "normal" LR without bothering anyone.

Ah. That chart. Right in the middle of page 83. I knew Colen would be
right, I just didn't know why. Thanks for the assist!
