Yeah, I guess I misread it. What I envision is a PDF with Hive
Militia, but not having the Armored Crew Compartment restriction
since the PDF is not from Armageddon. It also seems odd to have the
restrictions on Orgyns and Leman Russ variants, as the addition of
Hive Militia isn't a huge advantage (but appropriate for Armageddon
fluff). Essentially I'd like to see rules for a "generic" PDF, not
one that is Armageddon specific. I do realize that the rules in
Codex Armageddon are what they are and can't be changed but I'd like
to take a "regular" IG army WITH Hive Militia. And I could live with
some restrictions (though I like the Exterminator and Vanquisher
models I have, so maybe no Basilisk and Hellhounds and Rough Riders
would work, I don't have those yet, hehe) but the mandatory armor
crew compartment makes Sentinels awfully pricey and doesn't fit a
"generic" army. I guess I can't have my cake and eat it too. But
they made LR Crusaders available to all SM armies, why not Hive
Milita to all IG armies (have to talk to Tim I guess).

I've got a personal copy of the WM files with Kislev added, but I'm
not the official maintainer of the files, so I don't really want to
distribute them without his blessing.

Apologies in advance, btw, if this email comes out looking stupid - I'm
testing Eudora out and I'm not entirely sure what's going on yet.

Just make an army builder file which augments the Hive Gang unit with the
'race:ig' attribute.

How do you lock a datafile? The 'official' 2nd

For some reason I can't get the files to download, could someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I can't even them listed in the e-list files section.

Well I folled the link that you put in the anouncement e-mail, (after
getting all of it that was cut off by my mail program) and it would start
downloading, but it never seemed to finish downloading, even an hour later,
hope that there is a problem and it's not just me being impatient, thanks.

Thanks for attempting to help Colen, but I figured it out, it was just me

Which are nifty... But... Is the intent of them to allow all races access to
the Imperial weapons section? Or should each race have access only to their
own racial weapons? (Orks should have access to a subset of the impy list, I
guess, but I can't see them with Assault Cannons...)

Thanks for all the work, Colen.

Yes, I will have the Kislev files for Warmaster available in the
next few days. It's actually been done for about two weeks now but
between being a first time father and moving I've been a little
bit overwhelmed.

And I thank you for that. ;D

They should be released by Monday the 4th at the latest.

According to Tim Huckleberry, the idea is that only Chaos and
Imperial forces have access to the big, untitled list. Chaos also
has access to its own unique list. Everyone else uses their own
racial list only. So no Dark Eldar Guass cannons or Necron battle
cannons or IG Brightlances. This makes sense, although it still
allows things like Khorne-dedicated vehicles with Noise Marine
vehicle weapons, storm bolters for Chaos etc.
