v0.1 - This reflects about a week of research and figuring out the Army Builder ABCreator tool. It's rather complex, almost overly complex. I however was able to figure out how to build the rules needed to reflect the unique status of Veritech vehicles between their 3 modes. I've also implemented the entire Valkyrie Squadron Core Card along with the Built-In Upgrades, Special Force Cards, Support Force Cards, and Character Cards that are for the Valkyrie Squadron. Known Issues include the fact that I have not built in all of the rulesets yet so you can do things like violate force organization by having more than two Support Force Cards and Built-In Upgrades. Also the Built-In upgrades enforcement does not pass down to the child units yet forcing them to include the upgrades. Same with allowing a Character Card to only be used once per force.

Valkyrie Squadron can be selected to add and it brings in the default units along with the upgrade choices.

You can add a VF-1S, upgrade two VF-1A -> VF-1R, two VF-1A Support Card units, and Built-In upgrades.

You can add Character Cards which updates the stats with the reflected bonuses and view the weapon systems on a unit.
