The Warhammer army builder that knows what you already own.

A list builder that reads your collection

Every other Warhammer list builder starts from a blank page. You pick units, you add up points, and you get a legal army that exists only on paper. The gap between that list and the models in your case is something you are expected to keep in your head.

HobbyArmory closes that gap. Because the app already knows every set you own, right down to the individual miniatures inside each box, the army builder can check your list against reality while you write it. Add a unit of ten and the app tells you that you own six. Add a character you have never bought and it says so. By the time the list is finished, you have a shopping list as well as a roster.

Two game systems, two sets of rules

A list builder that treats every game the same ends up serving neither properly. Each system is modelled on its own terms, with its own faction data kept up to date as new material lands, so pick the one you play.

• Points totals per detachment or regiment and for the whole list, updated as you go
• Allies and their points caps handled for you
• Composition warnings while you build, not after the list is done
• Faction data refreshed on a schedule, so points changes do not wait for an app update

The smaller games are here too

Not every game is 2000 points. Combat Patrol, Kill Team and Spearhead are each built as their own format instead of being squeezed into a matched play list with a lower limit.

• Kill Team gives you the team, the operatives it has to take added for you, and the team rules, options and equipment kept with the roster
• Spearhead comes as the fixed force from the box, and you pick the regiment ability and the enhancement that go with it
• Combat Patrol applies its own 40K restrictions rather than the full matched play ones

All three read your collection the same way a full army does, so a kill team or a Spearhead box tells you what you still need to build.

Works with the list builders you already use

You do not have to start again. The army builder imports .ros and .rosz roster files, the same format the other popular Warhammer list builders write, so an existing army moves across rather than being retyped. Lists go back out as plain text or a PDF for an opponent or a tournament organiser, and you can share one by link with anyone else running HobbyArmory. Writing .ros files back out is on the list.

From list to painted army

Because the army builder sits on top of your collection rather than beside it, a list is not the end of the road. Every model in the army carries its paint status with it, so you can look at a 2000 point list and see how much of it is actually finished. Change a status once and it updates in the list, in your painting progress, and in your backlog at the same time.
