quick (I hope) question

[eric at landesfamily.com]

Here's the scenario, and I can't quite figure out how to make it work.

In DBM, the General's element costs either 10 or 20 points more than a
normal element. No prob, that works fine.

However, if an army is taken as an ally to another army, that same
general's surcharge drops to 5 or 10 points.

What I need is a hidden option that kicks in whenever the main army (race)
is different than the race the general belongs to.

The particular example I'm working on has the general in race 'ht' and the
main race as 'iq.'

I've got an option for the 'ht' general that has 'legl:race=iq' but it
doesn't seem to ever kick in.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

E

Your use of "legl" ought to be the optimal solution. Is the option attached
as "auto"?? If you have it attached as "incl", it won't serve any useful
purpose. I suggest making the option NOT hidden at first to verify that
the option is appearing properly for the general when in the "iq" race.

Thanks, Rob

You know, I hate it when you think you did something and you didn't...

It's working now. Don't know what part I had missed before, as I thought I
had included everything you mention below. I probably didn't do it all at
once.

BTW, have I mentioned that I LOVE the unam attribute? Being able to change
your CinC to a "Kushan Ally General" is damn cool.

And the -time feature saves so much work, it's amazing.

Thanks, Rob. 2.0 keeps kicking more butt every day, and it hasn't even hit
the streets
