We are starting to develop the Warthrone army lists for Army builder. To this end, it would be very useful to us knowing if you use it, and if so, which version do you use.

For those who don't know Army Builder, it is an army list creation software very widely used. This is the website: http://www.wolflair.com/index.php?context=army_builder

Thanks!

There's a discussion going on (over on Warseer) about whether or not Army Builder is worth the trouble it takes to have a working copy.

I don't use any fancy software, but people have pointed me in the direction of Battlescribe before. I tried it out with a Games Workshop army list and it seemed to work pretty well. But it takes some time to install because the repository files need to be installed separately from the program itself for some reason.

Pen and Paper. Paper is patient.
I don't like to pay for an army builder. It should be a free one. Like to spent the money better on miniatures.

I use army builder 2, it is fantastic for making army lists. I haven't read the Warseer thread, but I didn't find it any trouble at all..

Hi Felix,
I've come back to this forum after some time since I just found out about Warthrone

Anyways I own an online army builder for Mantic's Kings of war (http://www.mentemeccanica.com) and I did is also an Android app with pretty much the same functionalities

If you think it would be helpful I can add Warthrone army lists to my apps so that people can build their armies online without the need of installing (and purchasing) anything on their PC,
both apps are quite flexible and if the Warthrone army lists are not much complex I could make the changes in a couple of weeks top (I do this in my free time so it takes some time)

let me know what you think about

What a great offer legione :thumleft:

and welcome back!

Thanks so much for the offer legione.

The eKoW application is really nice.

Would be great to have Warthrone lists added. Personalization for regiments in Warthrone is much higher than in KoW, but I do not think it would be very hard to implement. There should be the option to add / remove troopers from regiments, select weapons, armor, ...

We'll almost 100% finally go with Battlescribe, once I have the lists I will pm you.

Thanks again.

glad to help!
send me the army lists details once they are ready, I can't promise to be very quick (I also have a day job!) but in a couple of weeks I should be able to make the proper changes
the army builder will be available at http://www.mentemeccanica.com/warthrone/
I'll keep you guys posted on the updates once I'll start the development

I'll do so!

Thanks so much! :thumright:
