Welcome to the AB40k Maintainers Site
Welcome to the AB40k Maintainers Site. We create and maintain the Warhammer 40000 datafiles for Army Builder 3.x. Warhammer 40000 is a product of Games Workshop and Army Builder is a product of Lone Wolf Development - we are affiliated with neither, we are just a group of fans who do this to enhance your gaming experience. This site is dedicated to helping to provide the most accurate files possible, so if you have a bug to report please register and use the project tracker below. Major Releases and patches as well as some user add-ons can be found in the Downloads Area, while in the FAQs are the answers to many questions relating to the files and their operation.
Important Information
Site Rules. The site policy is available to read here.
5th Edition Files. The 5th Edition files are now out. We will not be supporting the 4th Edition now. Maintainers may release a patch to catch any last bugs but that is down to the individual.
General and Bug Reporting. Please note that we only support AB3.x and not AB2.x When reporting bugs or requesting changes or updates please provide as much detail as possible, i.e. the file version, any patches installed, what rules were selected and steps taken to reproduce the bug - this makes it a lot easier for the maintainers to fix problems.
New Files. As mentioned in the FAQs in AB, on this site and in the relevant forums there is a minimum one month embargo on the latest release date on files when a new codex is released. Do not ask for it early!

 | General Release 1.05c no available! |
 General Release 1.05c is now available in the downloads section under 5E Release/Current Release as well as available using the automatic update feature with AB3.
Note that this file already incorporates changes from the Space Wolves patch for 1.05b. you do NOT need to apply this patch once 1.05c is loaded onto your machine.
For anyone with 1.05a or even an older file, you do not have to independently apply general release1.05b, 1.05c is a complete update to this moment.

| Space Wolves Patch for 1.05b in Downloads |
NOTE: You must already have downloaded and applied the 1.05b general release to use this file.
This patch is meant to straighten out some of the last problems with the Wolf Guard as well as fix some annoying errors with the 1.05b general release.
When applying patch, please make sure that there is NO checkmark in the box which says "Delete files not updated by patch" - if this box is checked, the entire contents AB40K5 other than the two updated files will be deleted.

| General Release 1.05b Now Available for Download! |
General Release 1.05b is now available in the 5E downloads/Current Release section. This general release hopes to correct errors and make format changes.
Notable changes from the first release is now most characters/models which had a option of different armour now have that armour choice to be made first, then the model type will be shown after that slection in a similar fashion to the Space Marine Captain, etc. This was to correct a problem where a choice of weapon was made and then armour changed causing a red out and validation warning.
A similar change has been made to the Wolf Guard unit. Note that at the moment, the ability to have multiple units on one line and a single model per line is still there. NOte that the same warning exists as before, if a multiple line unit is taken (i.e., more than one WG model on a single line) - any weapon modifications that are made reflect against that entire line. SO if you have 3 models on one line and you take a Power Fist and Wolf Claw, each of those three models have the PF and Wolf Claw.
Note that there may still be some niggling errors - currently there is a problem in correctly validating WG Terminators and their "special" choice of weaponry. That is the reason that this general release is a website only release for the moment. Once these remaining errors get hammered out, the next general release will be updated here as well as being available through the Auto-Update feature within AB3. This next release will be 1.05c and will be released as soon as any remaining errors are corrected and any new ones that crop up have been taken care of.
Thank you for you patience.
The AB40K Maintainers...

| Gnereal Release 1.04a released |
shaggai writes "Actually snuck this one in here on Sep. 30th. It includes the usual bugfixes and correction based on feedback from the bug tracker. Also includes the addition of IA7 units and Army Lists (Servants of Decay & Krieg Armoured Battlegroup).
The Codex / Non-Codex Source choice has been removed entirely. Any non-codex lists and units are now selectable when Non-Codex Materials roster option is selected. Note that all units which would fall under this category have not been completely defined as of yet and thus may show up without the selection.
The inclusion of IA7 allowed the chance to reformat and restructure the Chaos Space Marines. This will also lead to a larger reformat and restructure of the entire IA file, especially given the inclsuion of the corrections noted by the release of the FW Update FAQs for IA1 and 2.
In addition, the Apocalypse allies system has undergone a complete overhaul and should now be totally accurate to the allies Matric in Apocalypse. Note that the two races who normally have allies (WH and DH) continue to do so by their own special rules and not through this system. This will be changed in the near future however.
Lastly, there will be another general release, 1.04b - based on any last minute changes or corrections that are needed. This release should be available somtime in the following week and will be available for download via this website or by the Update Feature within AB3."

| General Release 1.03b available via LW update |
|
shaggai writes "You may download this file either here, or via the update feature of AB. A careful note: due to a small programming error discovered by the Lead Maintainer (mine, not LW fault) this update may not necessarily show up as new. If you do go to click the View Updates, you will notice that 1.03b is there and you may download it and import it. "

| General Release 1.03a Now Available! |
General Release 1.03a: Addition of Planetstrike, removal of Kill Team and Cityfight, bugfixes and corrections. Also notable change to how Special Characters are now handled - they are selected as ON by default.
Note that this file is completely compliant with AB3.1 AND AB3.2 - there may be some formatting vagaries between the two editions based on how tabs have now changed to a tree view. There is a formatting option in the main roster selection screen to select 3.2beta formatting. This will help the formatting difference between the two editions of Army Builder.
