The weapon  reads as follows but HL only adds the AC bonus not the Ref any suggestions

This sword's broad cross guard is larger and thicker than normal, but a few practice swipes with this weapon show that it is still perfectly balanced.

Has anyone figured out a way to add the critical hit damage to a magic item card?

Has anyone figured out how to add a tab for summoned or companion creatures? or How do you handle it in your party. There is an Allie tab but they do not generate a card or stats for the allies.

I think it can be solved the same way clerics are with the Battle cleric option. Where you add a pick menu in the class tab under class features. I will maybe start to look into that next week or so.

The next thing I need to do is remember/reteach myself how to do linked powers. The psionics have a lot and there are some in druids and others. Basically the character gets a power that give an attack power to be used under conditions, stances, active power makes a zone enemies in the zone are affect by part B of the zone power which is an attack. Linked powers basically pick one get two printed cards.

Okay so I am getting a few mixed messages from my HL its been a bad day for me anyway so why not here as well.
I am not getting a stacked bonus, I am getting a timing error and now I get this message "Thing to replace is already replaced by another thing and cannot be superceded" so it will not update the items. I know that its replacing the old equipment item but it should still save!



ARRRgg this is why I am not a programmer.

I have attached my June & July Updates in case anyone has some time to see what I did wrong. Then if they can explain it to me I will fix it and make changes in my new notes.
I am working with the Weapon of Speed and Battle Harness right now once I have those I can spread out more [cause more problems]
Thanks all

Ah, I see. We've had our hands full fixing bugs that affect our four PCs that are using HeroLab in our Zeitgeist 4e campaign, so we haven't even thought about adding anything new that isn't connected with that. 

The scripts are the same except that the Quicksilver Blade uses trtItem instead of trtPower; being separate bonus types, they stack (I confirmed this with my character).

Okay I was thinking
Weapon of speed is a Property: While holding this weapon, you gain an item bonus to initiative checks equal to the weapon?s enhancement bonus.
Battle Harness is Properties: You gain a power bonus to initiative equal to the item?s enhancement bonus.

So would those stack or only take the best result? since one is item and the other power? is so then what would be the script difference between them?

Awesome not only does it work but I tested it with a weapon of speed and that works as well plus HL only uses the higher of the two bonuses!

Thank you for the help!

So here is the attempt at Smooth Execution, I have stripped out the racial requirements in the 1st example and placed them in the 2nd either way it will not show up in the Utility powers to be selected and ideas?
