OK
"Cower, mortal! Seek not to extend your precarious hold on existance!"
I think that would work.

Those are probably the same people who join #C++ and ask "Hey, does
anyone want to get some C++ practice by doing my homework for me?"

That depends if someone else writes them or not.
I don't plan to, as I can't fit them in to my busy schedule of losing at
archery competitions, writing SkrillMail and SkrillTranslate in C++ and
fixing the bugs in the Space Wolf files

Subject: Re: Composition groups or Type restriction
I have some bad news and some good news.
AB V1.4 will NOT support this type of game structure. It just can't handle
it properly. :-(
AB V2.0 WILL support this game mechanic. It's already been added and will
be available when V2 ships - scheduled for late June.
If you would like to join the Beta effort to start working on your data
files with full support for this mechanic, please let me know via PRIVATE
email at rob@wolflair.com.
Thanks, Rob
