    Nice interface. Probably the fastest way to play with list building currently available. Are you planning on making it so you can assign weapons and wargear options? That would put it over the top.

      I’ve looked into it and maybe… The formatting of wargear is … inconsistent on the datasheets and creating a script that extracts useful data from them is challenging. like … wtf is this 😂

        To clarify, I don’t manually keep points up to date. There’s a script that reads the PDFs published on the warcom site. (well, not the pdf file but their raw text content) This makes it very easy to update points & datasheets, because all I need to do is copy&paste the new files.

        I can understand the difficulty, and that’s why it’s so sorely needed. Validation of list and wargear with a coherent output/printing is a large part of what people will be wanting. Seems only the official app is offering that at the moment (though the view list format stinks), and GW putting it eventually behind a pay wall will be a huge opportunity for a third party application.

    Okay, I have been playing around with it a little bit, and its just amazing, probably the best list-building option for 10th edition right now

    Wargear/Weapon Loadouts would be amazing

    Loving it, quick to use and easy to grasp. The collection feature makes it all the better!

    Does it just make the list or does it also have an ability to print out your data sheets for these models as well?

      It only does the list (which you can print, ctrl+P) I didn’t personally find it useful to include the datasheets since those are freely available as a PDF. (also there might be copyright involved)
