After some very helpful suggestions and advice from Nik I've found that the problem was with me not the Army builder! I was using Numbers (Mac) instead of Excel. I downloaded Libra Office and everything now works as it should and getting the correct points values with the Sug's.

Sorry for the false alarm! and thank you Nik for your generous help.

I've been having a play with the army builder to adjust the ready to play Sassanid Persion pacto army to the figures that I have.
TuG's all seem to be fine but I'm getting quite different points per base costs for the SuG's in the army builder compared to the values in the ready to play list. e.g. Horse archers come out at 85 vs 73, Slingers 42 vs 32, Javalinmen 27 vs 22. I've double checked that I've input the correct skill's etc. Any sugestions as to where I might be going wrong?
Thanks

Thanks very much for the clarification. That does seem to make more sense than the literal interpretation of the way its written in the rules that we tried playing!

Hi, I'm new to the game and have what may be a silly question about deployment...
If I understand correctly only SuG's (or flexi-TuG's) can deploy in the 5BW closer to the table edge on unsecure flank - and everything else must deploy in the center section. Does this mean that nothing can deploy in the unsecure flank sector between 5-10BW in from the edge? and that nothing can deploy anywhere in the secure flank sector?
