Afternoon gentlemen / ladies, I was curious, what do you usually use for a printed army list? Do you use the built in army builder on the Infinity website? Or are there better alternatives, the only thing I've found a little annoying about the way the sheet prints is how much space each entry takes, and in a larger game around 300 points, the printed out lists can be about 4-5 pages which is a lot to go through if you haven't memorized your entries. So a couple of questions:

-What do you use to keep track of your armies? Or do you have it memorized by now?
-Are there army cards similar to Warmahordes? I know lists are supposed to be secret, but having a seperate card for each unit in my army would be pretty nifty.
-Are there any other army builders you would recommend for Infinity? I'm having trouble finding specific units relying solely on the symbol in the army list.

Glad to be playing this game again, I forgot how good it was.

There aren't any official cards, so you'll have to print your own if you want to go down that path. I have looked into printing cards a while ago for something else, but decided it was more effort than it was worth. That said, someone on the Malifaux forums did do that, and it seems to have worked fairly well.

Aside from DT's official army builder, there's Aleph toolbox (I've seen this one more than DT's), and Infinity Pool. There's also an iOS builder called Pod6, if you have an iThing,

From the official army4 builder if you click on the cog next to the print button you can set the printout to simplified. this should allow you to fit most lists onto a page.

There's also something called "mayanet" for iOS.

I use aleph toolbox as the official infinity army requires so much in the way of resources for the flash that it's slow as hell to load.

Aleph lets me print and condenses multiple models of the same unit into the same profile.

My brother uses Mayanet. it's pretty slick.

The screen is divided into 3 panes - the first has unit selection, the middle is unit information with built in wiki hotlinks (that don't need to be online, IIRC, they are built into the app), and the third pane is the 'gameplay' pane. It shows your list, and you can set units to dead, which calculates your Retreat and LoL status.

Mayanet looks great for the IOS but i'mand android user.

I find www.infinitycreator.com is solid. It saves your lists, and if you go to print preview has the best print outs I've seen. Combine that with Evernote web clipper and you can have all you armies any device.

The only problem is that its not the easiest for new players. Everything is text based. And a personal pet peeve is that all the pull down list for available models include all the mercs from other factions which make it hard to find your factions models sometimes.
