I am refering to the above post about the new bretonnian ab file
uploaded not the UBAB. This new list is from the US version of White
Dwarf #260 in which the Battle Standard Bearer is manditory to have
but does not count against the Hero allotment. This ab file has a
mistake in it that does count the BSB against your hero allottment.

Subject: WFB Anvil Blowup and Bret files

Hi all. I just got back from an extended vacation. As to the two questions
raised yesterday. I have the following answers:

1. Anvil of Doom blows up the program - fixed a couple of versions ago -
download version 7.4 (WFBv6v74.ab).

2. WD Bret list and other stuff from new WD - One I haven't put one out yet
(Saturday most likely) - it will be the default list for the RH Brets
(likely I am going to pull the UBAB file too), Two somebody else put out a
Bret file that works with my files just recently and put them in the
AB-files files section. They won't show up from AB itself.

Ah! It's amazing how reliant I am upon a concrete example. NOW I
understand!

There is no current support for what you are asking for. However, this is a
good suggestion and I'll put this on the todo list. In the meantime, you're
analysis is correct regarding how to solve the problem in V2.2.

Thanks, Rob
