Veterans Counting Drop Pods 1-in-5

[The4D6]

For the purposes of determining how many specialist weapons can be taken, Legion Veteran squads are counting their dedicated transport as a model in the unit.

This does not strike me as intended behaviour

I can see a couple ways of solving this, both for this instance and long term.

Option 1:

We move units into a subunit inside of the unit. This also fixes count issues, where units display like this:

You can see an example on this branch/commit: 5b5456c
The one issue I forsee with this is if we need to then do a "number of models in the parent" check for "dedicated transport if 10 models or less" then we can't count number of models.

Option 2:

We add a category for "models, excluding the transport. Example below: This we don't need to apply everywhere, we can do it ad-hoc.

Option 3:

Count models of a particular unit type (generally infantry) in the unit.
This relies on us setting this properly for all model entries, which I don't think we've done. I might be able to do a script for it. This is the same as option 2 it just uses something pre-existing in the data.

Option 4:

Both? Both is good. Do option 1 for the grouping improvements and option 3 for improved data + fix the issue with option 1.

Option 5:

Change dedicated transports to "mounts" instead of models. This might break anything that counts number of models in force.

For me "Mounts" is a new thing I believe. Could a new new thing of "Dedicated Transport" be made for us?

Otherwise to me it seems easy enough to go for the option of "Count models in unit" as current. But with any with the option for dedicated transports, then include a "-1 if selection of (insert dedicated transport SEG)"

"Count models in unit" as current. But with any with the option for dedicated transports, then include a "-1 if selection of (insert dedicated transport SEG)"

We can't do that on the repeat, only on the final result. So it ends up looking like: (decrement max 0 should be decrement max 1)

BUT! while messing around I found that this particular issue appears to be that "and all child selections" is checked. Unchecking that means we don't check the drop pod because it's got a selection entry that's not a model in between it and the model.
