Welcome to the Battlefleet Gothic data file support forum.

[FoxPhoenix135]

I've come across a few issues when using this datafile, most of which are minor:

In chaos, the Slaughter class cruiser has the wrong speed listed: it's 5cm too slow.

Space marine escort vessels have incorrect point values. They should all be increased by 5 points as they are SM "Rapid Strike Vessels" and pay the cost of having SM crew.

In the armageddon fleet list, I cannot figure out how to take the space marine options.

In the Tyranid list, the rules are incorrect for the ratio of Hive Drones to hive ships: only 6 escorts of any kind are required per hive ship, not 6 Escort Drones. The fleet list says, and I quote, "You may include between 6 and 12 escort class ships for each hive ship. If no hive ships are chosen, only Kraken and Vanguard drone ships may be included in the fleet." This means that when you take a Hive ship, you must take any 6 from any of the 3 classes, as long as it meets the standard rules for squadrons (i.e, minimum of 2 ships per squadron).

Furthermore, in tyranids, some of the evolution options are missing. Some of the ones I noticed missing: Psychic Scream, Mucous Membranes, More Discharge Vents, Accelerated Healing, Drone Link, Tenacity, and Mega-Spore Mines.

That's all I've noticed so far. Bang-up job so far, mate!

I have a Reserve Fleets of Segmentum Obscurus list and have noticed that I can't actually create one on AB.

"If you wish, you may use a Battlefleet Obscura
Reserve Fleet, picked using the fleet list opposite.
In addition, you may of course use the Reserves
rule to pick other Imperial vessels not found in
your own fleet list. However, since a reserve fleet
also draws on very old or scarce vessels, you may
also use your reserve choices to select any of the
following Chaos vessels if you so wish.
Repulsive Class Grand Cruiser
Executor Class Grand Cruiser
Hades Class Heavy Cruiser
Murder Class Cruiser
Carnage Class Cruiser"

Including something about the "Strange Happenings" rule would be nice, also...

I am currently unable to access the BFG builder due to the following problem:

The Chaos Murder class cruiser shows no weapon systems unless the option for Plaugeclaw and Despicable Ecstacy is selected. The standard for that class should be Rng 45 Fp 10 port and starboard weapon batteries and Rng 60 Str 2 dorsal lances with the option to change the weapon configuration on the Plagueclaw and Despicable Ecstacy.

Sorry for the double post but I forgot to mention there is also no leadership for a the Chaos Murder class cruiser and no way to adjust it from 0.

Fix is simple: Laod up a safe game system such as the sample game systems, and then in the menus under "develop" disable data file debugging.

There's no one really updating the BFG file for Army Builder, is there? It hasn't been updated in months. If there's not, just fess up so that someone else familiar with the authoring software can pick up the torch.....

Heyo,

Just checked my old email account and realised i'd forgotton about this. I am standing down as datafile editor, hope there's someone out there whom will take over.

I cannot seem to find the Void Stalker in any of the Eldar lists. Am I doing something wrong? Is it hiding or is this a bug?

Thanks!
Kal

The Void Stalker should be under the Eldar fleet, not under Craftworld Eldar (unless you have a hero). If you aren't seeing it make sure you have the latest version of the BFG module and under Roster -> changes rules that Eldar alternate fleet "all ships" is checked.
