Armada Builder App

I liked this guy for X-Wing. Just liked the fact you can save your configurations and models you own to an account so you don't have to re-enter them all the time. I was wondering if you could do the same thing with Fab's? But I can't find a way to log in/save data for later use.

Brian Black has done a great job creating Battlescribe data files:

Although the app lacks any info on each card, it is a handy way of building lists. As there aren't many cards ATM anyway I know what most of them do so its not an issue.

If you click on the view list icon it shows you the full card text and description. Looks like an eyeball.

Oh good, I had that momentary panic where I reached for my phone to check for what I'd missed this time...

Yeah it is frustrating that X-wing has two perfectly good and updated apps for android and Armada has none. But X-wing is a "bigger" game than Armada so it is not surprising. :P

Armada Fleet Designer works well on my Android devices. The guy who keeps that up typically has things up to date after reveals within a week or so.

I do like Fabs when I'm on a desktop. Doesn't happen often, unfortunately.

What unholy Necromancy is this???

Hey at least he didn't create a new thread.

This has been brought up on the RPG tread before.

where the dice roller is a generic app to a point .

anything like a character generator/fleet designer app falls under the star wars digital licence which FFG doesn't own.

this is also the reason that no PDF are allowed for the RPG.

the star wars digital licence was written before PDF and Apps where a thing so this tends to be a gray area in the license that most companies avoid.

It may be but I wouldn't know because Amazon Underground sucks. Seriously I installed it and could not find it anywhere. I ended up uninstalling Amazon. Any chance of getting it on Google Play?

Armada Fleet Designer is awesome, just awesome. It's soooo much better than all other Armada apps, and I've used all of them.

Jup, plus is very much like the good old X-Wing Squadron Builder :-)

You can download Armada Fleets Designer from Amaazon, or directly from this site: https://plus.google.com/117131374075828331639/posts/e8SbTMusZn5

Though it is an Android app, there are ways to run it on a desktop computer, using Android emulators, as I describe in this post: https://plus.google.com/117131374075828331639/posts/fp2y5Pnf65X

Thank you for the post. I am really liking the app so far. Hopefully it continues to perform.

I use this, and it's fantastic! The ONLY thing that would make it better, IMO, is a search function like the X-Wing Squadron Builder app has.

Theres a few wireless device friendly websites but of course that uses data when you arent on a hotspot.

I was hoping the guy that did Xwing Squadron Builder app would make an Armada one, but both his insanely slow update rate as of late and i dont think he has Armada interest makes me believe that wont happen.

For now i use ArmadaWarlords, which isnt an app but it works. Hoping if an app does show it tracks collections. So annoying to forget you dont have a certain card (slicers) and build a list with it lol

Are you looking for an iOS app? The Android app linked above, Armada Fleet Designer, fits your description...

Originally i was using that one but i found its interface to be funky and it has several horribly written card descriptions. Some of them are completely different from the actual card (talking about the in-list descriptions when adding things). Dodonna being one example, the way they worded him in the list is he only affects friendly ships' attacks for the crit shenanigans, while the actual card doesnt say anything about friendly ship or squadron.

That was pointed out to me when i made a thread asking about rebel commander uses, and i questioned why Dodonna was suggested for a bomber list. Pulled out the actual card, lo n behold he does work on squadrons...
