Hi,

I'm using AB2.2C and the V3.7 40K files. I'm having trouble getting
the correct number of attacks on Assault Terminators using the
Imperial Fists list. When equipped with 2 Lightning Claws, the
Terminators should get a base of 3 attacks. Currently, they are give
2*.

Not that big a deal, I know...

It is like that because you can take thunderhammer/storm shield or lightning
claw pairs.

If you mix the unit's weapons, then the display will be off. (TH+SS does not
increase your # of attacks, while the LC's do. Their has to be a way to show
this.)

The * is the best way to show it, although I understand that if you give the
whole unit LC's it doesn't make sense... but their's no other choice I can
think of, other than addind a 'sub-unit' of terminators with alternate
weapons... but that would be obnoxious.

Ahhh, I see. As a relatively new player, this confused me -- now I get it.


Thanks!

I think it may also be possible to give the extra attacks just by
adding a checkbox that has the option of giving all terminators
lightning claws. This would not show extra attacks for if only a
couple have LC's but it should cancel out any storm shields, Thunder
hammer, Power fists, etc. (i.e. other weapon combinations.

The most humble,
Peppy

The extra attack given by the lightning claws is not an increase to the
stat line.
It is a bonus added during the assault phase.

e.g.
If my wolf lord had a bolt pistol and frost blade, this would give him an
extra attack, but no one would be asking AB to represant that on the stat
line.

These things are shown in army builder. It shows the base / modified stat.
The problem in question is that it shows a * instead of the /+1. This is
because the unit can also have t.hammer/s.shield, which does not have the
/+1.

It shows 4/5 if you take a wolf lord with bolt pistol + frost blade.
