Hello again!

I think I didn´t explain it right. Good, Evil and Neutral Disks are not the problem. I have difficulties with the Composition Rules: Spells must be subtracted from the points total, then 50-100% of the remaining points must be of the original faction, and 0-50% of the remaining points can be of Allies.

Sorry to aks again, but everything else works fine. If anyone wants the files email me, please.

Dieter

You'll need 3 composition groups: Native, Spells, and Allies. All units
must be assigned to the Native group, and all spells must be assigned to
the Spells group. You must also define a race entry for each race in DW,
then assign each unit to its proper race via the race prefix (I assume
you've done this one). Then assign each race the complete list of other
races in its Allies list, and set the Ally Group to be Allies. Lastly, set
the composotion rule so that the Native group must always be >= the Allies
group. The net effect of this will be:

1. You can select a primary faction when you create your roster.
2. All out-of-faction disks are allocated to Allies automatically.
3. All spells are allocated to Spells.
4. You can directly compare the number of points of Natives to Allies,
thereby ensuring that your army is at least 50% in-faction disks.

Suggestion: I believe that the easiest way to implement spells is as Items.
Then, define a "Spell Book" unit that can contain any number of spells. The
user can pick and choose his spells in the spell book, and all the points
get allocated properly to the Spells composition group. [NOTE! I haven't
seen your files, so I have no idea if you have already done this. If so,
please ignore this suggestion. ]

Hope this helps,
Rob
