Getting back into the game

#1  Postby kernbanks » Fri Apr 05, 2013 4:41 pm

So I've been away from 40k for a little over a decade and looking to get back into playing. I used Army Builder in the past, but it doesn't look like the support structure is the same. How do I download files etc?

If you have an active Army Builder subscription then you can download the latest file from the automatic updates system inside Army Builder. If not, then you can download from the Downloads section manually on the Army Builder website. New files are no longer released here on AB40k.

OK, so I have to buy first and then can get the download... thanks for clarifying since this is a big bill for not really knowing if it will work.

If you don't have a license already then AB allows you to add 3 units to a list - you can use this to test that it will all work correctly, as it allows use of the autoupdater initially to download files. If you have an old license that hasn't been renewed, and you're using AB 3.2d or higher (ideally you want to be on 3.3 or higher, but 3.2d should work - not 3.2a, b or c, must be at least d!), then go to the Downloads > Supplemental Downloads link on the Army Builder website ... http://www.wolflair.com/rightframe.php?context=army_builder&page=supplemental_downloads . Download the Warhammer 40k file, import into Army Builder, and off you go :)
