I have tried using the threshold option but it doesn't seem to be
working.

It is for battlefleet Gothic

ulmt:type=Commander-min@points=100-thresh=750

this is from the dark elder list and it also doesn't work.

ulmt:type=Prince-min@points=100-thresh=750-mode=default

The '-thresh' modifier for the 'umlt' attribute is ~only~ checked
against the selected points size of the roster by the 'Restricted
To: ab@support.wolflair.com
checked against the points that have been spent in a roster. Also,
the -thresh modifier set above won't show a validation message if
a roster of 'Unlimited Size' is selected under 'Create New Roster'.

An example. If I selected a Dark Eldar fleet restricted to 500
points with the 'umlt' set above, I shouldn't see a validation
message. If I select a 1000-point fleet, though, I should see a
validation message until I purchase a Prince, even if I currently
have 800 points of ships in the roster.

On a related note, it will be much nicer if you replace the default
validation message, "Not enough Pts spent on units of type 'Prince'
in roster (min 100).", with something else using the '-msg'
attribute modifier with the 'ulmt' attribute above. Something like
"A Pirate Prince is required for a roster of this size." would
sound more eloquent IMO.

Finally, a little clarifcation on Dark Eldar fleets--they are lead
by Dread Archons and ~not~ by Pirate Princes like the Eldar fleet.
That's one of the more minor errors in Hugo's BFG data files, but
it ~is~ an error so be sure to change yours to read Dread Archon
instead.

HTH,

I can't answer about threshhold but have you
concidered using the tlmt rather then the ulmt
command? since tlmt is designed for type limits
rather then specific unit limits...Then again it's
mostly programmer's style...I would suggest;

tlmt:Commander-unit=1@min-thresh=750

That should get you the command you're looking
for...I've also chosen to use unit rather then the
points of the Archon since somewhere down the line
(Yah right) GW might include another option for a
leader that costs less then an archon (a drachon perhaps?)...

The 'tlmt' you have above won't work for the intended purpose
since the value of the threshold is 750 ~units~. The
'granularity' (AB term) of the threshold always matches that of
the limit attached to the type (%, model count or unit count).

Cheers,
