If you are talking about all the weapons data etc. then this is all
entered within the options, almost all options in the 40k files use
apnd:foot

Cheers,

Subject: zfut and future abilities

Greets

For the life of me I cannot make zfut work properly the syntax
zfutption does option mean tweak, which is an item option, or an
actual option? I am trying to find a way for multiple selection of
the same item to only print one description, without using the irng,
which doesn't work very well for what I need.

I have an item that purchases a child unit. This unit can be
purchased more than once. (Say a Mad Dok can purchase multiple
orderlies). This is being done in the items section because it is a
differnt set of options from the options section. (Anyone who has
opened the Orks file in 40k knows what I mean).

My problem: in order to purchase one orderly for each time the item
is selected, you have to uadd each time since irng is so cheesy that
it can't interact with any of the other item attributes. This means
that for one child type, you must have multiple descriptions and
child units.

I have tried to get around this by using an option that is enabled by
the item setting a type, and this works fine to remove the mulitple
descriptions/units problem, but creates a potentially worse problem
because the item cost is no longer limited correctly.

Any ideas from the Gurus on here? Help would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Graham T.


P.S. future options that would be nice:
- cost that can be modified by parent type count
- unit size that can be modified by unit/parent typecount
- the ability to control options via items
- an option that can clone (ie: from a global option, the ability to
clone the options and attributes of a template unit)

And on a final note, if you do actually check the ab-40k3 group files
section, in the Bug Fixes directory there are a set of Ork files that
do, in fact, contain the Unit in question. Or just wait for a few day
for the next release......

Hi!

I think there are some problems in the Army Builder file for the 6th edition
Warhammer game. I tested it only with Skaven armies, but probably it affects
other armies as well.

<snip already answered q>

2) The Warlock Engineer should have no spells.

C>No spells show up for the Warlock Engineer. He gets a warpstone token and
does not have access to spells (except by buying the warpblades as per the
rules).

But on the printed page it reads "Has 1 spell".

Did you select the <2000 pts. composition rules set like it prompts
you to do? Roster -> Composition Rule Set -> <2000 pts
