I have encountered a situation where the points value for grenades is
incorrect. Here's the details:

Army list: Blood Angels Army of Death
Squad: Space marine scout squad w/ vet. sarge (5 total men)
Weapons: Heavy Bolter, three snipers, bolt pistol & ccw
points: 135

Frag grenades can be given to entire squad for 1pt/ea.

When I select Frag grenades, the points cost goes up six points to
141. That's a point to much (unless I'm missing something).

Some other examples:

Increase squad to six men:
Before Frag 151 pts --> after Frag 159 pts (2 pts too much)

Increase squad size to seven men:
Before Frag 168 pts --> after Frag 176 pts (1 pts too much)

Increase squad size to eight men:
Before Frag 184 pts --> after Frag 194 pts (2 pts too much)

With Krak grenades & 5 man squad
Before Krak 135 pts --> after Krak 148 pts (3 pts too much)

With Krak grenades & 6 man squad
Before Krak 151 pts --> after Krak 166 pts (3 pts too much)

Anyone else notice this or have I done something wrong?

Thanks.

All units in the Army of Death cost 25% more than normal. Army Builder
is just adding the extra points. After all, 5 * 1.25 is 6.25, which will
be rounded to 6 in most situations.

I'm so happy that there is such a thing as egroups so that I can
publicly display my ignorance. =)

I guess I thought that the AOD was just another name for BA's.
That's
what I get for randomly choosing armies and not having the rules.
BTW, where are the rules/fluff for AOD?

I assume that there is no Death Co. for AOD (which is why it didn't
show up as a squad choice . . . really glad that I didn't ask that
question now).

Thanks for your help!

White Dwarf something or other, just after the Blood Angels codex was
released. They're probably on the Realm of Inisfail (a yahoo search will
find it), it seems to have everything else. Basically an entire Blood
Angels army goes insane with the Red Thirst, gets bonus attacks and Ld,
costs 25% more.

Thanks!

I found it on http://www.themaelstrom.co.uk

As I'm sure you've figured out, I'm a new user. I just want to take
a moment and say: THANKS!

The WH40K data file is extremely thorough. I almost fell down
laughing when I discovered the descriptive text for the Master of the
Ravenwing's wargear. =)

Armybuilder is a great program! I plan to purchase the full version
soon.

You can tell when I can't think up anything useful to write there, can't
you?

Good show! Buy one today. In fact, why not buy two?
