Just to echo Colens comments, there's plenty of help on this list.
All you need to do is post your questions. If you don't understand
something in the manual, ask here (mentioning that you've read the
manual and don't understand it goes a long way
.

When I wrote the battletech files, I was still relatively new to
creating AB files. I asked a lot of questions. If you think the
files your writing will be like the battletech files, flick me a
note about anything you don't understand in them and I'll try and
help.
Cheers,
Russell.

A question......
How would you attach a retuine to an inquisitor?
I understand how to add a retune to a HQ, but they are all the
same...ie marines to a force commander.....
i know it has somthing to do with the parent/child attribue, but
what?
any help is appreciated.

I'm not familiar with the Daemonhunters rules... I assume this is the new
Daemonhunters codex for 40k you're referring to?
If you're looking for an example of how to attach lots of different models
to a character as a child unit, you might want to take a look at how the
Space Wolves work - in a retinue of Wolf Guard, each individual model can
be equipped separately if you so choose.

Also see the Sisters of Battle Celestian retinue. The various character
upgrades that can be done (Sisters Hospitaller, Famulous, etc.) should also
provide some good examples for you.
