In all seriousness Battlescribe is basically a list building program similar to Army Builder.

FUCKING list builderfags, Battlescribe needs to be fucking banned from events. I'm tired of playing games against people who need their hand held through the list-building process.
In all seriousness Battlescribe is basically a list building program similar to Army Builder. Unlike Army Builder, Battlescribe is free and on most platforms, meaning everyone can use the program from cellphone users to that guy that brings a laptop. The catch, well you need to find that data for the different games. The company does not offer any of the data files for the different games meaning you will have to look around for the files for your game (which lets be real will probably be WH40k). Also, those same files are at the mercy of the community since they are usually updated by individuals rather than dedicated groups. Usually this is not a problem. Usually.
Overall, a good program for those who don't want to pen and paper for their list building. Get it here.
