I really don't like using the app, but since it's better than pen and paper, I sort of have to in order to make my lists.

I was working on a SM Primaris list, and noticed that Inceptors weapon upgrades are wrong. 102 points for a plasma gun? 60 Points for the Assault Bolter! No Sargent in the unit profile.

Does anyone know how to report this to the app makers? They may not know such egregious errors exist in their software.

The app makers have nothing to do with it, the content is managed by the relevant community.

Load up the computer version of battlescribe and edit those entries yourself, it's easy to do and doesn't take much time at all.

It says that cost because you pay for the upgrades for the whole unit at once, if I remember correctly

All models in the unit may replace their two assault bolters with two plasma exterminators.

you can't take a single weapon type in Inceptors - they are all one type or the other .. Battlescribe is correct mate

Just go there and report. Be aware though that CA2018 is in full swing, so things may have changed already.
Release is next sat.

Although in this specific case - yes, since you do NOT have the option to change it on a per-model basis, there is zero reasons to split it up. The pts are for the entire squad, not the single weapon.

Battlescribe is still without CA 2018. Probably once the book arrives, the Community will update the app. How long they will take I don't know.

The data is pretty much updated already.
For obvious reasons we have to wait for the official release of the book before we can release the data though.

Define 'STILL' ... how can it 'still' be without something that hasn't been released yet? ... honestly if you have a time machine .. SHARE !

Points are already correct. I don't know what you're talking about with the sergeant either, it's showing fine for me.

I see more people who think Battlescribe is wrong and it turns out to be their own mistake than actual errors in Battlescribe (outside of immediately after changes/new releases of course).

HOW DARE YOU ... I've been playing since 2.5 edition Rogue trader Emperor update edition, that you've probably never even heard of !

Thus I cannot be wrong and it MUST be an error in this free program that has datafiles written by idiots that barely can conceive my true form.

I'll be writing to Games Workshop rep immediately to complain ... once I ask my mom if I can have the ink pen after last time I got it all over my face.

If you check out the Github account for the data files, there are already quite a few CA2018 sheets up. I've got the CA2018 points for Astra MIlitarum loaded up on mine.

Modify it yourself, it literally takes 5 mins

This wasn't clear to me. I'm used to most entries keeping things separate. The cost still seems wildly over-costed, but that is a GW issue. Thanks!

Oh good lord, please don't spread that knowledge.. the ensuing chaos...

Lol... what kind of chaos could happen?

For some reason my mobile browser isn't showing signatures.

Also, I think the Marine Ironclad Dreadnaught has an issue. It looks like the Dreadnaught Melee Weapon cost is built in to the base cost with the Stormbolter and Heavy Flamer points as options at 2 and 17 points, but then the Hurricane Bolter is listed at 10 points when it actually replaces the Dreadnaught Melee weapon. I'm pretty sure they should be 32, 47, and 10 (until Saturday anyway) with the base model 30 points cheaper.

Thanks.

[Edit] Pthth, that entry isn't wrong in Battlescribe. It's just GW being stupid again.

Why the feth does the Ironclad pay to replace a free 30 point CC weapon with a significantly cheaper ranged weapon, when that free CC weapon can be equipped alongside one of two other ranged weapons with no issue?
