Subject: File Update Problem
Hi,
Is it just me or is there a problem with the latest 40K file. When I try to
use the download the file, I'm being told to manually locate the file which
results in an "file not found" message.
Thanks.
Mike.
PS. Can I be the first idiot to ask when the new chaos army book will
available? <vbg>

Try adding "rang:0-1" to the anti-tank gun... From the Help for rmdr:
"The primary objective for this attribute is in use with groups of
ranged options." I'm guessing that it doesn't work for NON-ranged
options...

I'd say probably sometime after it's actually released. (Mind you, I'm in

Okay, another question.
rmdr:Weapon=#-option=xMG1 This means, what ever option, with category Weapon, is not selected by the user, the remainder will be give the option xMG1 right? So, if they only chose one option with the Weapon category, the other options would get xMG1?

I think you should either give the machine gun the category "Weapon"
instead of "Standard", or change the rmdr attribute to
"rmdr:Weapon+Standard=...". if that doesn't work, let me/us know... I'm a
bit rusty on AB stuff right now, but I think that should do the trick.

I just did some testing and Colen is correct (despite being rusty).
You need to either add both Weapons to the Weapon category, or
specify both categories in the rmdr attribute.
Funny really, that was my first thought, but I hadn't tried it and
the doco didn't seem to indicate it, so I didn't mention it! I
should've tested it a couple of days ago when you first asked.
Enjoy,
Russell.
