Warriors of Chaos bugs

When taking Throgg, trolls do move to the Core unit tab, but when taking 4+ units the validator says "Too many of the same Special".
 
Mark of Tzeentch + hand weapon shield should have +6, +5* ward save.

Chaos Sorcerers can't take the Level 0 Death spell

When choosing an Exalted Hero as the BSB, the WoC book states that any banner may be chosen for a cost of 25 points, regardless of the actual cost. Currently the AB charges the full point value.

Whoops! I did read that rule incorrectly! Thanks for pointing that out! :)

Sithkhan that has to be a mistake in your book or your reading it incorrectly. Mine states that he can carry a Battle Standard for +25pts or carry a magic banner with no points limit but no magic items.

If your book sais that can I get a scan of it so i can use it :)

Gil,

Notes for whomever is doing WoC right now.
Similar issue I had when updating the Empire Flagellants. I ended up creating two separate listings of Flagellants in the editor with one being Core and the other being rare. The Core Flagellants only appearing when a priest was selected.

I'm not a great programmer, so that was my work around. I was having issues getting them to be core, but not mess up the rare count. Hence, I just created a separate listing in core that only appears if Priests are selected.
 
Book of Secrets makes the bearer a Level 1 Wizard which allows him access to Arcane Items. This isn't in the AB file.

Furthermore, Knights and Chariots come up with an armour save 1 greater than what they actualy have (i.e. they come up as 0+ and 2+ respectively instead of 1+ and 3+)

A final point is that Warriors of Chaos have not been given an exclusion for the War Banner cost. Any army with a cost in their army book use that cost as per the GW FAQ, yet in AB file they are paying 35pts instead of 25.
 
Point Calculation for Additional Equipment

I'm not sure if this is a bug or I've been interpreting the rules incorrectly, but when I upgrade one model to a unit champion it subtracts the points for additional equipment. For example, if I add shields to 20 Chaos Marauders it calculates 20 points, but when I upgrade to a Marauder Chieftain, it subtracts 1 point. Is that correct?
 
Throwing Spears (as Javelins)

When using throwing spears with marauder horsemen, the notes say they have an 8" range. Javelins now have a 12" range (pg 90)

Yes, because the Marauder Chieftain is now a separate line with a separate total. The new unit total should be equal [old total] + [chieftain upgrade cost].
 
When giving a non spell caster the Book of Secrets or the Wizards Hat, the character is not able to select arcane wargear even though he is now a caster. The character is also not able to select demonic gifts dealing with magic such as the Third Eye of Tzeentch.

Thanks. I see the point is added to the chieftain's total.

by the way, the point value for a Marauder Chieftain is 8 points, not 12 points. Marauder Horsemen are 12 points.

Correction on my part. I see it says 12 in the Option section, but the total points added is correct at 8.

thanks
 
Not sure what the problem is, but if I add a blasted standard to a unit of chaos knights of tzeentch with a champion, I don't see the 4+ ward save on the champ, only on the rank and file.

Also, With any unit with MoT and HW/Shield, the ward save is displayed as 6+,6+* assuming the second ward save represents the parry save should it not be a 5+ for a unit with the MoT?

I've also seen the issue with the Chaos Knight armour save, strangely enough it doesn't seem to effect the Champ's save, which is listed correctly at 1+
 
Chaos Knights

Hi

I noticed that the knights of chaos have a backup of 0 +. It is a mistake
because the maximum V8 backup is a backup of 1 +

Thank you for your work and go!

@+
 
bug in the save of marauders horsemens. Save 5 in army builder and + 6 they must have.

Another question: Save parade 6 + invulnerable works on a
marauder horseman ? or only the figures on foot?

Thank you for your work

Cordially
 
Found a couple more, this time related to printing.

Seems Champions and Lords (and I would presume heroes as well but haven't checked) of Tzeentch, when printed out seem to miss out the word Tzeentch.

E.g when printing the lord he is listed as

Chaos Lord of

and the champion is listed as

Champion of

They display fine in AB, but something funky seems to be happening on the way to the printer :)
