I'm likewise working on an Eldar Corsair data file, and have it done, and think I've ironed out the bugs.
The Space Marines are mostly done (and greatly improved over the RandomHit file, i.e. actually having weapons stats and special rules), and I have added as many FAQ'd changes and 6th updates as I can. I've likewise included the Stormtalon Gunship.
Likewise, I've added doubling of FoC choices at 2000 points, triggered by selecting additional troops and HQ choices.
The scheme mostly seems to work, but there may be edge cases.
The other three, so far, mostly just have the Fortifications added.
I think my index may not quite work right (it is Dropbox hosted), so I've sent the link to Jon to debug.
I'll provide the link, just in case:

I just installed yours and my version doesnt have the Space Marine Codex in it. Any idea what i need to do?

Question for anyone using the mobile version with randomhits repo - I can't seem to get some features to work. Mycetic spores I basically can't add to any unit, and Tyranid Warriors I can't add a heavy weapon warrior. The option is there, but greyed out. The same file works fine in the desktop version. Am I missing something else?

Hmm... I just double-checked the index, and see that I needed to up-version the Game System entry under the Space Marines file. Perhaps that will have sorted it out for you?

Just to let people know I've set up a repository for the Dropzone Commander files I'm building:
http://www.specialist-games.co.uk/dzc/index.xml
First attempt at making Battlescribe files, they came out a little messy, mainly because I can't figure out how to have "Game Type" affect validation (so some units are only available in certain game types, and in certain amounts)

@Loki: there is currently a bug in the iOS version of Battlescribe. It doesn't do validation correctly. That is why you cannot add mycetic spores,... because there is a rule validation (to make sure you cannot take it when there are more than X models of something).
A bug report has been filled about this. Give it a little bit of time.

I just got an error when i opened battlescribe, i didnt have a chance to copy it but it said it was in relation to Space Marines.
I just reinstalled the data and it still doesnt show up.
thanks for any help.

Sorry for the headache.
I think I have it sorted out, now (I re-named the files, generated new Catalog[ue] IDs, upversioned them, and re-indexed).

It may just be something on my end, but i still see all of the other codices but still no space marine.
Im not getting the doubling of the force chart either.
Sorry about the problems.

Are you looking under the game system "Warhammer 40,000 6th"?
If not, you may perhaps be looking at files from another repo.

Awesome, glad to know.
Outside of my earlier whining due to my usual ability to make stuff not work, this is a great bit of software.

@toumas: enjoy! They're just modified/updated/improved (i.e., rules descriptions added) versions of the RandomHit files, so I can't claim all the credit.

Nice no more waiting for Army Builder updates. I just plopped the new Stormtalon rules into the Space Marine roster, and waala! I can now point up the entire army.
Also I like the output much better.

@Wagguy80, welcome to the cool side. :-) Btw, if you use my repository, Stormtalon, fortification and double FOC is already supported.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/565769/40KCatalogues/index.xml
I think some other gentlemen also post theirs which probably support that too. You know, just in case you don't want to edit yourself.

Just a quick update.
The issue where you couldn't select some items (eg Mycetic Spore) on iOS has been fixed. I've resubmitted to the Appstore, but no idea how long they will take to approve the update (or not...). This bug also caused some incorrect roster errors to be reported.
Also, I've resubmitted a fixed up free version, so fingers crossed it gets through this time...
I'll announce on the BattleScribe website when (if?) these become available.

Will not use it. I rather use pen and paper, works much better in my humble opinion, but I do understand why people do use it. Its a mater of preference I suppose

There seems to be some problems with the new six edition ork file so, while this file is being fixed is there any chance of posting a location of the old one.

Just FYI, the update is on the AppStore and does indeed fix the issue with some unit upgrades not being selectable.

I'm thinking of doing at least a Haqqislam file for infinity. At least there's no options, just a bunch of different equipment load outs within each unit type.
While I love devil teams builder, it doesn't help me if I want to make a new list at the store.

I like it, works great on PC and on my android tab.
I prefer to build stuff in the PC version, and then the mobile one is good for display / reference / last minute tweaks.
As a possible feature request - any way you guys can add some sort of 'shared' roster storage between pc and mobile? maybe leverging some Dropbox apis or whatever?

So many models, even less time.

Really enjoy this program....especially for the price. My thanks to the creator(s).
Army Builder is way overpriced....im not paying 39.99 for a program that does basic addition for me.... I would say at least it collected everything in one place but thats why i bought a codex. paper and a pen goes a long way....

Not sure does anyone know or care, but under the Black Templar codex, the Terminator squads are 240 pts when they should be 200 pts for 5 of them.

Look around for a better repository, or even make one yourself. It also helps to know which repository youre using.

That is a simple one to fix in the editor.
I have been redoing the whole black templar one because I have found lots of problems, but I got busy with work and didn't have a chance to finish. Maybe next week I will finish it.
