Exactly how does one go about it? IS there some function within Army Builder I'm not finding, or what exactly? I'd like to add the new units for Hordes, but I've really got no Idea how to go about it.
 
First, download the abcreator package using the auto-updates within Armybuilder. You can open that program to view and edit the files that already exist for warmachine. The program's manual will be installed in the same start menu folder as the program, I'd at least skim that, and then study the existing warmachine files - figure out how special abilities are linked to a unit, figure out how stats are assigned, figure out how to attach a leader to a squad, figure out how to assign prices, etc. and then you'll understand enough to use the existing units as a template to write new units.
