While I really like the inclusion of the Reference mode with unit & weapon stats, I fear GW will try to take this down due to infringement.
I like the open source philosophy in general and here its quite hand if the above happens. Since the source is freely available on Github, anyone can use it to host their own builder. With or without tweaks & additions. You could also run it locally.
Brilliant to whoever has made this and so quickly. It begs the question, why the hell have GW not done their own? It is the year 2023, I think pretty much every other game I play (some of which are probably written and staffed by about five people) manage to do army builders or some form of app, so its a deliberate choice that a company with GW's massive resources has not - even more puzzling when you consider the Age of Sigmar army builder.
The links to this were being killed as quickly as they were being posted over the past few days, hopefully it will survive as its super useful.
Guess GW want to sell you cards and that anything like this comes later, and then only if they think they are selling enough to justify the outlay.
they could do worse than contacting the guy who wrote this about GW hosting it and contracting with him for maintenance and reskinning it to be "official"
