Orcs&Goblins bugs

p. 47 of the 7th ed. Army Book says that, at 2000 to 2999 points, you may take up to four characters, up to one of which may be a lord.
Currently, Army Builder will let you take one Lord and four Heroes... which is _5_ characters.
 
Note that the above error occurs when you take Borgut Facebeater who counts as two Hero choices for the army.
 
*** Another Bug Here***
I noticed a bug with the IronBack Boar. It doesn't count as a mount so prevent us from using Porko Pigstikka and allow on foot only items
 
With the new O&G book, with how it states in the descriptions of both Characters and the Chariots, the Chariots *does not* take up a special slot when a Character purchases it to ride in, it is now a mount. And I did call up the rules line when I saw that to confirm it, and they said I was right. There might be an FAQ out later that changes it, but for now...you can have more Chariots in your army than what would normally be allowed if a Character purchases it for their mount.

If there is a way to get AB to reflect this, would be appreciated. I am also trying to modify the data files to fix the bugs that I know of, and read here, but I'm still getting the hang of it. And my first attempt to fix everything wasn't very successful except for the point cost fixes.
 
May or May not

I do not think that GW will so soon fix and reprint a Army book -
maybe put out a FAQ but not a whole book -
but either way the 7th addition file have far to may Bugs in it and it needs to be fixed -
please Please when will this happen
(Robert I know you only one person but please we need this)
Thank you for the hard work you put in -
and Happy New Year
 
The Enchanted Item: Bigged's Kickin' Boots cost only 30 points, not 40 as AB says.

Effigy of Mork (Talisman) is missing.

not missing on mine have u got the latest offical update

Yes, I have the latest upadate. I went through all the O&G characters and the effigy only seems to show up for savage orc characters. It is not supposed to be a savage orc only item.

On another note, in the O&G list, chariots bought as mounts for characters should not be able to buy any options (extra crew etc) as per the official O&G FAQ document.

go to the C:\ArmyBuilderEX\data\wh6 directory and open the orcsgoblins.dat file in Word pad

click on the find button and search for ogeffigyMo

you should find the text below

<item id="ogEffigyMo" name="Effigy of Mork" description="Enemies are at -1 to hit in close combat." cost="35." idtag="yes">
<tag group="MagicRace" tag="OrcGoblin"/>
<tag group="MagicType" tag="Talisman"/>
<childvis>OrcStuff.SavagesOrc</childvis>
</item>

cant remember if this is an orc only item if so just delete the word savage in the 2nd from last line.

if its available to all characters delete the entire line <childvis>OrcStuff.SavagesOrc</childvis>

save the file but dont close wordpad

open army builder again it shoudl then appear for everyone.

if u get an error message go back to wordpad undo what u have done and check u did it correctly. it worked for me anyhow
 
Talked too early. Now the Effigy seems to cause an option error with all Enchanted Items even though it's a talisman itself.

[EDIT]: Fixed it myself. For some strange reason the Effigy was technically an enchanted item in the data file though it was made to appear in the talisman category.
 
Hi,

there are two errrors I found.

First the Nightgoblin Big Boss mounted on a Cave Squig may choose a Spear instead of the Great Weapon, this option is missing.

The second one is with the Magic Mushrooms. An error occures when more than one character wears one. But every Shaman may like Power Stones ore Dispel Srolls.

You can click the Magic Mushrooms in the army list and add more by clicking the + button the same way as if you were adding models to an unit

Not Exactly what I meant.

I mean you give two different chars the magic mushrooms, than the error occures.
It´s clear that you can add more Mushrooms if you use the add button to one char
thats no problem.
 
Oh. Sorry. Seems like I read carelessly :)

Then I don't know. And as I don't have the new Army Book I can't check whether or not many gobbos can have the shrooms. Are they for sure an exception to the rule that several characters can't have the same magic item?
 
Never Mind.

I´m sure of it. it says in the army book That aquiring an Mushroom doesn´t counts against aquiring an Arcane Artefakt. They are useable like
Diepel Scrolls or liek Power Stones

How exactly did you edit your file to stop the effigy counting as an enchanted item? I can't seem to find where that is in the datafile. Any help would be most appreciated.
