Armies

Is there a tutorial or something on the use of the new Army feature? I'm going through it and and just having difficulty making heads and tails of it. For instance: Are the Army and Artmy status tabs the only one you need to care about...or should other tabs be used....somehow?
 
Main tabs you'll use are the Army, Army Status, Classes, and Background tabs. A couple feats (like brew potion), also have army abilities tied to them.

The rest are mostly there for you to build the "typical" soldier in your army as an imagination aid, though they don't have mechanical effects.
 
The army Hp is based on the Army Challenge Rating, which is based in part on the Individual Unit CR. Adding levels on the Class tab increases the unit CR, so Hp will increase accordingly. There is also an incrementer on the Army tab to choose the size of the army, which defaults to medium (51-100 units). Every step above or below medium modifies the ACR by 2, which also increases (or decreases, for small armies) Hp.
 
Just wanted to say thanks for the info Aaron. I need to look at armies for my current campaign and I was sort of wondering what tabs actually did stuff. :)
 
So I tried to move my army over to the iPad and it does not seem to work. So I can understand that as an army is very strange but man would that be useful on the iPad.

So then I tried to create a character sheet and no go. So I finally got a statblock to print but it does not print any of the detail information. How do I get that to print?

This is all I got and you can see the "Standard Tactics, Withdraw, and Taunt" don't print any of the details. Is their on option I am missing that will get that to print?

I've tried armies on the iPad before & also printing statblocks, but it seems totally nerfed.

Ah, those were based on the statblock form in UC, though I think the definition of various tactics and things after the "official" statblock is a good suggestion. You should submit it.
 
I found this out last night. We were preparing our assault on Drezen and it was time to pull up the army's stats. I switch hero over to the army.....and it's not really useable. Luckily I had it written up on paper from before.

It would be great to get this capability though.
