Chapter Tactics

#1  Postby Kaeric » Tue Jul 13, 2010 12:03 am

Hey guys,
Been a while since I've been able to use AB at all but my data files seem to be working correctly. I just have one quick question about Chapter Tactics. Salamanders and a few others have Chapter Tactics that override Combat Tactics. How does one activate that in AB? Sorry if it seems a little simple, but it really is a simple question. Thanks

Simple answer is that you don't - it's up to the players to know how the rules work and deal with them when they play. The AB files are simply a tool to construct a list, nothing more.

I'm not sure how complex it would be to get the units to switch their Combat Tactics rules for the appropriate Chapter Tactics rules where necessary, plus there would need to be additional handling to enable the user to choose which HQ unit to use for the override in the case of taking two with the Chapter Tactics rule.

Thanks for the info. You have a check box for Combat Tactics so I didn't know if I was missing something to toggle that box. I'm glad I wasn't completely blind. Keep up the good work.

If you look carefully you'll see that everything has a checkbox, but those rules that are fixed are always greyed out :)
