Clan War DE and example Crab Army

[DWWilkin at aol.com]

First,

I think this is a great aid! Great Job!! Well worth the money! I hope
this becomes an economic success!

My questions is this. I was trying to load in the example armies
provided in DE and got stuck on one unit, I think it is the Zombie
unit in the Crab Army (definitely the Crabs). I am at work, the book
is at home. I asked the experts at the Clan War list and they all
presumed that I did not enough to attach the unit to a leader or
vice-versa. I did, the choices for the unit though did not give the
Crab personality that the DE shows, so perhaps there is something
else
I am missing?

Thanks,

David

I saw your post on the Clan War list and it didn't include any detail on
which unit and personality were involved. That's why you got the response
you did. By noting the troops involved below, I was able to investigate. It
appears that the sample army in Daimyo Edition brings up an interesting
potential conflict in the DE rules. Aromoro's Kiso says he can only lead
undead troops. But the rules for personalities state that an allied unit
may only be lead by a personality from that Clan, which implies that the
Plague Zombies (allied unit in a Crab army) should NOT be able to be led by
Aromoro (a non-Shadowlands personality). The question is whether Aromoro's
Kiso is intended to override this normal restriction, even though it
doesn't explicitly say it does. The example army implies that this may be
the case, but I'm not an authority on this.

Army Builder is enforcing the general rules, hence the inability to select
Aromoro to lead the unit.

This issue needs to be addressed by Ken Carpenter, so I'm posting this
message to the DE play-test list, where Ken frequents. Please check back
with me on this after I've had a chance to hear what Ken says. Also, if a
rules clarification is required on this, I assume that one of the play-test
folks will post it on the Clan War list, too.

Thanks, Rob
