Dragon Princes lack of special rules

#1 Post by Razzy Mac »

I don't have my army book on me at the minute and I was playing around on battlescribe. Is it correct that DPs not only don't have martial prowess, but also don't have ASF? If so, what? How does that make any sense? Martial prowess wouldn't so much for them anyway and I don't think they'd exactly be overpowered if they had ASF, why are they one of the only things in our book not to have those rules? Does a 6+ ward save really need to be balanced out by taking away re-rolls and hitting first? They're still S3 T3 elves with not much of an armour save ffs!

Or is my data on battlescribe simply incorrect :P

they have it... the horses don't...

My battle scribe data must be wrong then because it most definitely says they don't have it. It lists swiftstride and valour of ages... Everything else in the army has ASF in their entry where appropriate... #-o

In general I wouldn't trust any battlescribe catalogue. They are best used to aid building the army. You can correct any errors you find with catalogue editor that can be found at Battlescribe installation folder.

One battlescribe catalogue I saw had the Skaven "Grand Banner of Clan Superiority" saying that you add d3 combat resolution for each rank in the unit and a couple I saw have wrong point values on items. If something looks weird or out of place though, its easy to go in and change it through the catalogue editor.
