Bugreport:

cant choose Carneval of Chaos warband, as available troops are always from avalanders mercs.

By the way i love the roster builder great work :-)

Yeah, I haven't done Carnival of Chaos yet. I can't find a good way to fit the Plague cart into this temple and make it work. How do people normally write it on their roster sheets so I can get some ideas?

You probably mean how to manage the profiles, as there are three different ones? Well, write down whichever you need. As they don't change you can either just look the others up whenever necessary or you squeeze them all into the same field.

Hmm, that could work. Now I just need to figure out which profile to put there...

Oh, and I need to make a few slight coding changes to support increasing the maximum warband size.

I'd just go with the ... cart then. The driver is part of the special rule anyways and the draft horses are standard IIRC.

Okay, I've been fairly busy recently (and sick too ) but assuming I get some free time I'll put up Carnival of Chaos AND all the BTB warbands as well.

Oh, and I didn't forget about setting it up to be used for mid-campaign warbands either. I'm waiting on someone to finish up the layout for the new section of the website (the functionality for the photo hosting stuff is done) so I can get that up, and when that's ready I'll work on allowing you to save your warbands to that profile for updating.

So what about the BTB warbands?

Yeah, I'm sorry, I'm getting there. I've been super busy with work and stuff. I actually have one of the warbands almost all the way written up. If you or anyone else wants to take a few minutes and type up the database files I can upload them. The format is really simple. Otherwise I'll get it as soon as I get a few minutes of free time.

Yeah, I understand. I am lacking free time as well. I'll wait then.

Impatiently...

That's the format if anyone wants to type up the BTB stuff for me while I'm super busy. It should be really simple to read and figure out what goes where. There are a few minor intricacies for some of the more advanced rules (ie mutations) but I can add those if someone gets the basics typed up. It's really easy, just a little time consuming when I don't have free time. :-/

Perhaps I can help out here?

Tell me where to find the rules and how to modify this to your wishes (XML is part of my work, so reading the file should not really be that hard) and I'll see what I can do!

I did download the PDF-files for all warbands from the tabletopgeeks website, so if it's just that, I'll try to add some this weekend.

Thanks! I want to get the Border Town Burning warbands (here: http://www.bordertownburning.de.vu/ ) into the Roster Builder. Just use the file above as the template and make them for these warbands. If there are any weird rules that you can't figure out, let me know and I'll take care of it.

It's mostly just copying the stats into the format above.

working on some XML files as we speak

Currently finished:
- Norse Marauders
- Battle Monks
- Chaos Marauders

Working on:
- nothing atm

Note though: I can't add special rules to the warband, that is something svenn will have to do.
[edit]
finished 3 xml's. Might do more this weekend, depending on my amount of spare time.

Uploaded 3 of the files that vampirekhain sent! Thanks a ton for that! These might not be fully finished since he said he didn't know what to do with special rules, so post any issues with them here and I'll fix em.

Marauders: http://tabletopgeeks.com/mordheim-roster-builder/?warband=btb-marauders
Monks: http://tabletopgeeks.com/mordheim-roster-builder/?warband=btb-monks
Norse: http://tabletopgeeks.com/mordheim-roster-builder/?warband=btb-norse

Enjoy!

Once these are all working I'll put a BTB button next to the Official/Unofficial buttons so you can switch to them easily.

Just sended you the restless dead as well.

And because I now feel like a zombie, I'm off to bed

BTB Restless dead are here: http://tabletopgeeks.com/mordheim-roster-builder/?warband=btb-restlessdead

As always, let me know if anything is missing/wrong and I'll get it taken care of.

Huge thanks to vampirekhaine for taking the time to do these for me!

The Monks warband is missing its special rules. Both the warband's special rules and the individual model's rules are mostly missing (the Dragon Monks are missing their starting skill - Art of Silent Death, the Peasants are missing their 3 special rules).

Aside from that its only the Merchants missing. Nice.

Aren't you forgetting some other warbands?
- chaos dwarfs
- maneaters

Other than that, we're almost there!

Fixed up the special rules and character specific rules on the ones that have been posted. Those 4 warbands should all be ready to go, so let me know if you see any other errors.

LOL. Shame on me indeed!

Marauders, Monks and Merchants were always the main warbands of the setting so I tend to forget the others.

Going to fix another 1 or 2 rosters tonight. Merchants are up first.

Merchants are up here: http://tabletopgeeks.com/mordheim-roster-builder/?warband=btb-merchants

cianty, how do you want the trade wagons shown? Should they be listed as equipment or as a Hero/Henchman? Also, is there a maximum number of trade wagons allowed?

They should be equipment like all wagons (and unlike the Plague Cart). And no, there is no limit.

Does it actually speed up things? I mean, a pen, a rubber and a calculator works quite fine.
