In the citadel journal issue 32 on 52-55 are the old Imperial support

In the top right corner of the screen there is a button called "Allies for
Army"... click the arrow, scroll down to Assassins. An assassin will pop up
in the selection screen. Add it to your roster, and then you can select what
kind of assassin it is.

Thanks!

I found it on http://www.themaelstrom.co.uk

As I'm sure you've figured out, I'm a new user. I just want to take
a moment and say: THANKS!

The WH40K data file is extremely thorough. I almost fell down
laughing when I discovered the descriptive text for the Master of the
Ravenwing's wargear. =)

Armybuilder is a great program! I plan to purchase the full version
soon.

Ah, now I understand your cryptic message to me the other day. No

Anyone out there got a copy of these rules?

If someone sends me the rules, I'll add them to the files.

For necromunda the bounty huntress Bonnie Annerson. She was very
limited miniature. The only why to get her was at special event that
games work shop had in store and some independent stores back when
the sold the game. It would be nice to have her rules in a necromunda
file.

Subject: Ravening Hordes Part Deux

The newest files I downloaded have corrected the barding problem, but
I have encountered a new one. I was building an Empire army and
noticed that if you add a "Great Cannon", you can keep increasing the
number in the unit and it does not get accounted for in the "Special"
units count. It works correctly if you select them as seperate units.
Thanks for all the hard work whoever you are.

Back to painting Handgunners...

The Ravening Hordes files I downloaded won't allow the Chaos Aspiring
Champion who has been upgraded to Battle Standard Bearer to take The
Banner of Wrath. It says the item cost is greater than the cost
allowed. The Ravening Hordes supplement says he can take any banner
regardless of cost.

From: "Dave Gilbert" <davegilbert@usa.net>
Subject: Ravening Hordes data files(number 2)

A set of ravening hordes army lists, for the new warhammer fantasy
battle rules, have been added, in a new folder on the ab-files group,
imaginatively called "Ravening Hordes".

These files mirror all the composition rules for the new lists, and
are formatted in such a way that as the new army books are released
each list can be upgraded with the minimum of fuss and no impact on
any other list.

The spells for each of the Lores are missing, because I don't know
them yet. As soon as I can find out what they are, they will be
included. If anyone out there knows them then e-mail me and I will
include them.

The only other problem I know about is if a unit such as goblin
chariots is chosen. This counts as a single composition choice for 1
or 2 chariots, but each chariot may or may not have a third wolf.
At present the file enforces the choice on all models within the
unit, so EITHER take 2 units, and thus 2 composition choices, OR give
all models within the unit the same options. I think this only
applies to Goblin chariots, and High elf chariots. In all other cases
either there are no options to take, or all models must be equipped
the same.

If anyone can find any mistakes then e-mail me at davegilbert@usa.net
and I will try and cure the problem, or e-mail back with an answer.
