Took a while but lots of updates. Among the new contents: Renegade Knights, Space Wolves Codex, finished the Necrons Codex and 20+ bug fixes!

UPDATE: See below to fix the apparent import loop. -> Jump to it

Edit: Also the Skeleton of the DKoK has been added.  Working my way through the Armor and Heavy support sections of IA Astra Militarum.  Send me bug reports via the Astra Militarum section

Really excited to use the latest work and thank you. However, for some reason the file indicates that it has imported but will not open - I just go in a loop of "the latest version is ready to download" type messages. Never seen this before. What am I doing wrong?

That is interesting...  I'm the new guy, let me get ahold of the others.

I tested by importing and it worked fine. Having said that, it does give a "new one available" notice as I forgot to update the version within the main file screen. 

UPDATE: I tested installing to a new folder. Once you do the import, click "No" and it will load normally. The release notes screen should show "Welcome to v1.8..." I'll report this as a bug and show the workaround and edit fix it is super trivial.

Do It Yourself Fix: In either a text editor or ABCreator, open the AB40k8Def.def file and change 7 to 8.

Text editor: just the single green change

ABCreator: Just the single highlighted change.
