Well Cal it's coming up rather nicely, if I say so myself ?:D
Current status is, all Auxilio formations are in place, as well as the Navy formations, the Legios as well, except for the Ordinatus which should be quick to implement.
Following steps are to implement upgrades, maybe after this point I'll release a WIP version since the weapon loadout does not affect points cost; and finally the titan weapons loadout which is a very complex issue (taking the current limitations of both AB and my knowledge of it :blush: )

OK, here is an update of the progress, I am advancing quite slowly, specially compared to the Tau list which was done in a mere week. I've encountered a couple of problems, which I can't find the solution for, which are:

a) whenever you get a roster on HTML (and I suppose printed) you don't get the stats for the weapons as separate entries, I've found a workaroudn putting them on the individual units, but I don't like it. I can't find what is the problem since I am doing the same as the Tau list and there they work just fine, my guess is that using the titans from the main definition may be affecting it but the access to such definition file is locked with a password.

b) implementing the Titan weapons as items, I can't get the items to show on the right hand of the item selection screen, like in the other game systems i.e. items in Fantasy, I tried modyfing other lists and they don't work either so that may be a limitation of the E:A main definition list which I can't fix.

The units are complete, I have to work on the upgrades but I get the feeling that I won't be able to solve the above problems, so I am not sure if the final result will be as nice as the Tau list, this is quite ironic since I don't own Tau but I do own TL, sigh :( . I'll keep working on the list and let you guys know,I guess that even if it is not that nice as the Tau list I did it'll be a good reference when creating an army (specially since the items description do print separately, so you know what each titan has)

Okay people, after a lot of hard work, I've completed the ab file, the problems I mentioned before were not fixed, I tried a lot of other choices but none were better than the final result that you have here now. It's not quite a good method to select titan weapons in practice, since due to something on the main definition file (I guess) is stopping the items to work as they should, so they don't reflect on the items screen as in other systems, but they do remain in the titan.
Also, the Devotional Bell should take two spaces, but that isn't working either, so you have to check that by hand, as well as the weapon composition loadout (I did included descriptions so you know if it is a tac, support, or assault weapon). Everything else is fine in both cost and upgrade options so I think the file is a good progress from using spreadsheets or hand calculations. There is one last bug, that actually comes from the chaos file (figures it had to be chaotic, he he) that puts a "Replace" item that shows up on the file, why it does that I don't know since the chaos file is not shared, I fixed mine by changing the chaos file but I think it would be too much to post that file too, just ignore that, or if you feel like having the chaos file let me know and I'll upload it, problem being I don't know if that affects any other chaos army, I think not because of the nature of the change I made. Well, I'll shut up now, if you find other bugs besides what I've decribed, please post it here.

HELLO !

thx a lot for the the AMTL file :D
great !

I have downloaded the file and install it.
Create my 3K list and my 2K7 list.

I will try to create more lists to send you feedback if needed.

>>^o^<<

[EDIT] ok feedback now

(forgive my bad english)

I have met a few matters
- when u choose the weapons for a tijtan from the option (the five pointed star) it don't appear in the right box ... so after this when you want to remove weapons and add new ones you can't and need to remove the entire formation and create a new one

- I was pleased to see that for my future chaos titan legion I could *replace* one unit with a deamon prince ;)  

all fo now

but again thx for this file :)

Hi Vaudania! thanks for the feedback, it is a bug I had already seen and commented, as far as I can tell there is something on the main def file that creates that effect and I can't fix it, so it stays there for a while, but thanks anyway for taking the time to report it and I hope you like it and find it useful (the file, not the bug  :D).
