 Details of the .ab file format are on the [wiki:ArmyBuilder/ABFileFormat Army Builder File Format] page.
 
+==== Army Builder - The Files - AB v2 ====
+
+Army Builder version 2 bundles a collection of files in to a single .ab file using a separate command-line executable. These files all have the same file extension, which relates to the game system specification the files were created for. The file is, according to the documentation, compatible with PKZIP but the .zip extension isn't used so that users don't try to extract the files. Tests have so far been unsuccessful in extracting the files.

+==== Army Builder - The Files - AB v3 ====
+
+Army Builder version 3 bundles a collection of files in to a single .ab file as part of a separate GUI application. These files have different file extensions depending on their content, although .dat and .aug can be used instead of many of them. Tests have so far been unsuccessful in extracting the files, but the [browser:IBBoard.ArmyBuilder.API/trunk Army Builder API] can currently read the file list and header data.
