Edit: Ignore me, I actually read the FAQ and surprise, surprise it tells me exactly what to do.

I feel like I must be missing something simple, but how do you register to use the Ryan Kingston fleet builder? I can't find a sign up link anywhere. Do I need to donate first before I can use it?

Hit the FAQ button, then e-mail the creator.

Donate with payPal however many CAD you want (10 for example) - you get a passord and username.

You can use it wo an account, but can't save fleets for later.

@JauntyChapeau yes you obtain an account by donating

when you click on sign up or login I believe you can then get a link to his email and then when you contact him and for a small donation (I gave him 10 bucks) he sends you a login and password...or at least that is how it used to be done.

Did it today. You don't even need to email him. When he gets the donation, you get an email with username/password. It's not automatic though, he responds manually.

This is well worth the donation. Easily my favorite builder right now. So smooth and easy.

Ryan Kingston's website has the new ships and cards on it.

http://armada-dev.ryankingston.com

Is this site down? I went to check it out for the first time and I'm getting an ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED error.

EDIT: Ah nevermind - the url changed to http://armada.ryankingston.com

Edited by strikenowhere
URL Changed

It was in development.

http://armada.ryankingston.com/

that should be the updated new one

Has the print option changed? I used to be able to print to pdf (I think) but now can’t. I run it on an iPad and send to myself at work to print!

There is a little icon at the bottom which turns it into a list you can then save as a PDF in iBooks

Clicking the print button takes me to a page which asks me to select a printer but then can’t find any connected printers.

The little share button creates a simple notes list which I can convert to pdf but isn’t nicely formatted like the print option. Hoping I’m just being stupid and missing something obvious!

The other thing you can do is just save the page as is as a PDF in ibooks

Do you know if you can save the page 'as is' in Internet Explorer/Chrome/Firefox? I prefer the images of the cards over the list format.

Thanks!

Is the 3 point Vader upgrade missing for anyone else?

It is there on mine underneath the Weapons team upgrades.

Derp. I didn't scroll down. I'm so used to all the upgrades being in the same area.

He responds really fast to registration and email questions.

I made an account right as he was switching over between versions, which gave me a couple of issues, and he was trading emails with me within the hour.

Absolutely my favorite fleet builder.

Agreed, this builder has become amazing.

Thanks, Ryan!

Wow... haven't looked at this one in a long time, just went to check it out and... I like what he's done with the place! I think AFD is still better, but a quick once-over and it looks like this might replace Fab's as my web-based builder of choice.

Fab's lack of updates made me switch to Ryan's. (edit: meant warlords.)

Lack of updates?

What wave are you talking about?

Gotta be the past, because I personally bug him into updating quickly.

Yeah, not sure about this one either. Of all the critiques Fab's site is open to, update speed isn't really one of them. I don't think I've seen him take longer than a week to update, ever , since W1. Recently, it's been within a couple days.

Wow, this fleet builder site is really good! I just made a donation so hopefully I'll be up and running soon and I can leave the Armada Warlords site behind me.

To me Warlords still has a purpose as I can post links to lists. With Ryan’s I have to copy and paste (I think).

So I use and love both...

My apologies, I meant warlords. Fabs, warlords, same thing right?

You can copy paste....ore you can copy the taskbar link once you have an account. It has a number. And if you amend the list yourself, people can hit refresh and see your amendments. When I am list building with a friend that is how we do it.
