Hi Colen,

Sorry to bombard you with all of these, but if I don't I'll forget
them. In the Mordheim datafiles, the undead list now has experience
trackers for zombies and dire wolves. They shouldn't, and didn't in the
1.4 files.

Cheers,
Phil

Subject: Error in alpha datafiles.

Not sure who this should go do, using the v2.0 alpha
data files on skrill.org their is an error in Dark
Eldar. When I take a raider transport the default gun
is DarkLance with a 5pt upgrade to Disintigrator but
both are grayed out so there doesn't appear to be a
way to upgrade it. If I edit the army list and take
the disable tag off the darklance they are both
checkable but its not quite right that way either.
Thanks!

How did the Harlequins get in there then? The AB file is already done,
it's just a matter of adding it to the .zip (and possibly making any minor
changes for v2, but it sounds like v1.4 and v2 are compatible right?).

Ah well, maybe I'll just drop it in the archive, and people can get it
themselves.

I do them. :P

John Connell completed a working file for them before I did so there
are actually two versions floating around. As of the last time I
looked at them they were very similar.

If I remember right, though, one of them had an incomplete Chaos army. I
think that was the first one done.

Sorry...I'm a scruffy urchin! I went back and read the big screen
and looked under 40k FAQ instead of FAQ for AB...big difference.
Now, I'm just confused that the rule guys say the scout sergeant
can't take a sniper rifle. By what GW has written, until the upgrade
to vet scout sergeant has been made, the same choices available for
the squad should apply (ie:no difference in any characteristics in
any squad between the sergeant and squad unlees upgrade to vet).
Anyways, I guess I've (and others) been playing wrong for the last
year!!! Thanks for the clarification. And thanks for sparing my
good leg! :)
Later,
Kevin

It can also be argued that sergeants do not get the squad upgrades, this is
stated in the codex. Don't have the page number since I'm at work. But
before the list actually begins it breaks down the rules and gives a summary
of what each entry in the list means <a legend if you will>

Anyway, not trying to start this up again, but wanted to point out what
causes the arguement. Heh.. one side sees it one way and the other another..
I guess that's what causes it. Heh..

Because they appeared before the files became so vast I had to adopt

Please do, by all means - if you could add it to the ab-files archive
too I'd be grateful.

Have you tried copying the old undead Necromancer units? It sounds like
copying the Necromancer Champion and modifying it slightly would help.

p5, Space Marine codex: "Options: Lists the different weapon / equipment
options for the unit ... these may only be taken by ordinary squad
members, not the Sergeant." So now you know.
