Howdy,
A few things I have noticed:
Kislev horses do not have a Mv of 9 its MV 8
Still missing a lot of the basic items, dispell scroll, sword of might, striking, battle, biting blade, enchanted shield, power stone, etc.
Just downloaded the latest empire list as of 23 Feb. Where do I wander to find a more up to date list.

Hey Apollo, first and foremost I wanted to say thanks for all your hard work and free time spent getting these empire bugs ironed out. I can tell some of it has been stressful. I, like some of the others, wonder why the files arnt up for official download at the press of a button but I dont mind putting in a little extra effort because you certainly did! 
Keep up the good work, I have been playing this game for over 20 years (eep!) and remember when I had to hand write all this stuff. And if you had any help thanks to those people as well! I dont get to follow the forums as much as I like.
Cheers,
Buzz

Latest Update March 30th 2007
I downloaded and installed the latest file (300307) without any problems. Thank you all, especially apollo!
I just found two mistakes:
1. The steamtank is handled in all belongings like a war machine (that means incl. deployment) except it is exactly told in the rule book (Rule book empire 7th edition, german version page 50, after the chart with the attributes of the tank and its commander)
For example: it moves like a chariot (rule book Empire German page 51("Movementphase")).
Actual the description of the steam tank in the Armybuilder roster tells you, that it counts neither as a war machine nor as a chariot for deployment and that's not true (it's also handled as a war machine for deployment (and must be placed together with the other war machines)).
2. The message with the huntsmen still shows up ("Too many units of huntsmen") if you have one marksman in your sole unit of huntsmen.
Best regards!

There is still a bug in the latest version 300307 with the Detachments
If i use Archers as a Detachment for a Regiment with only a Unit Strenght of 10 i get the Warning that the Detachment of Archers is too big by 1 Model.
Somehow for Archers (and only Archers all other possible detachments work) he counts as a maximum legal Unit Strenght for them (US/2)+1. But the number of Archers i can take max is correct calculated with US/2
Sorry if it isnt 100% clear what i mean
its just not my mother language

Hi, all these bugs you guys are talking about in March, I have -- I haven't used Army Builder in awhile, but I have a current license which i just transferred to my new PC. I've updated using the View Updates button, but the latest Warhammer datafile I see is dated Feb 23, 2007 and that's the one giving me all the bugs. My license should be current till 2008 -- if I'm not seeing the current datafiles, where do I get them?
Thanks for any help/suggestions.

Hey Apollo,
Thanks for all you do in your spare time for this. I downloaded the most recent empire file. "300307" It loaded just fine. I was under the impression that this file would fix the lack of common magic items on the list. It didn't of course. Which file(s) do I need to download to get the common items fixed?

I cut and pasted these instructions from the warhammer-empire.com forums. Found it helpful
Below for regular users is some guidance.
Exit Army Builder.
Download the new Empire data file from:
http://support.wolflair.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Downloads&file=index&req=getit&lid=124
Save the file to your PC (Desktop is an easy place to put it)
Rename the file from empire280207.dat to empire.dat
Locate your wh6 folder (typically c:\Program Files\ArmyBuilder\data\wh6)
(Notice that there are other .dat files such as dwarves.dat, this is what the program uses to interpret the various special rules and units for each race)
Cut and Paste (or drag and drop) your new empire.dat file from the Desktop to the wh6 folder.
A message will appear asking if you to 'Confirm File Replace'. Answer yes and you will overwrite the old file with the new download.
Start Army Builder. The new updates should be seen when you create a new list.
That worked for me. Hope that helps.
