Okay, here's what needs to be fixed/added to the MW files:

1. Fire for Effect set

2. LE figs

3. the release "Initial Set" needs to be changed to "Dark Age"

4. The rarity of the figs is all messed up, and needs to be fixed.

5. The models don't sort right alphabetically, it should be: Green version, Veteran version, then Elite version.

i.e.

AgroMech MOD (G)
AgroMech MOD (V)
AgroMech MOD (E)

instead of

AgroMech MOD (E)
AgroMech MOD (G)
AgroMech MOD (V)

We'll add these when we get the data for them.

OK.

"All messed up"? Could you be slightly more specific?

This will be fixed in the next release of the files. Although unless I'm
missing something, there are currently no models that are affected by this
- the only one that has two versions is the Cavalier Battle Armour, which
has Green and Veteran versions (both for the Wolves).

Yes, it turns out I was indeed missing something. I shall go and apply a
sledgehammer to my head, in the hope that such things do not happen in
future. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

>>4. The rarity of the figs is all messed up, and needs to be fixed.

:) Sorry, you see the WizKids games figs are released randomly, and the rarity level of each fig is a number instead of "common", "uncommon", etc. In MechWarrior, the non-unique non-LE figs (referred to as "nons") range from 1-5, uniques are lvl 6, and LEs range from 3-7 I think they may go higher though. So some non sets (green, veteran, and elite versions) like say CBA (Cavalier Battle Armor) range from 2-4 while others range from 1-3 in ascending order.

Now some of the Mech nons are listed as

5,3,4 instead of 2,3,4
5,3 instead of 3,4
4,5 instead of 3,4
etc.

I think the Mechs are the only ones with problems though. And you'll need the rarity levels for the LEs when you add them. I don't have the correct data on me, but you can get at MWRealms, but not all-in-one or anything. I might be able to get them from somewhere, I'll get back to you.

I don't understand what you're talking about.

To Clarify:

When you sort by Unit Name, they sort alphabetically by name then alphabetically by rank.

i.e.

AgroMech MOD (E)
AgroMech MOD (G)
AgroMech MOD (V)



When it should sort by name in alphabetical order, then rank in order of rank.

i.e.

AgroMech MOD (G)
AgroMech MOD (V)
AgroMech MOD (E)


Rob fixed this in the other datafiles by adding a space at the end of a figure's parenthetical rank to affect the sort order.
