Awesome, that's a lot of work you've done! Thanks!!

And thank you for sharing :)

I have a PDF someone compiled back in 2010 (up to date at that point) by Razorboy. I should see if he's updated it since then.

Darck Child: Thank you! It was my pleasure, I did it for my own use after all ;)

Brother Praetus: Thanks for the offer but I'm now complete with books except for the one Only War book mentioned!

Rawrbear: Thank you! I've added them to the database. I think I am now 100% complete! Including web supplements, etc. I've also added a Weapons section, a Library, and more to come!

Just chiming in to say: That's pretty cool :)

Thank you! I appreciate your appreciation ;)

You are my hero! I've been working on a site for my game group lately but my god did you just save me a load of time.

Glad to be of service!

Bumping, updated recently. All inclusive except RT Faith and Coin and the new Only War adventure, both of which I'll add soon.

Awesome work, mate. Is there a section for vehicles or am I just not seeing it?

Thank you! All "entities" including starships and vehicles are in the Bestiary, just head over to http://www.40krpgtools.com/bestiary/ and choose Vehicle from the type dropdown (bottom of the type column).

I like how the master book list tells you which bits from which books are still missing from the database (eg. Tome of Excess' bestiary is there, but the weapons aren't yet).

BYE

Scythemonkey,

first off - fantastic resource, alot of work has clearly gone into it.

Secondly - I spend a lot of time running games away from an internet connection, do you have/plan to have a downloadable version of you masterpiece?

Hi Surak, thanks!

Currently the entire datasets for each page (Bestiary, Weapons, etc), load with the page. So if you go to the page and save it to your desktop it should still work just fine without an internet connection! Hope that helps.

Otherwise I don't have plans to take if offline yet, maybe an app or something at some point in the future but I'm fairly short for time.

thanks for the quick reply, I'll give it a try

Ah, cheers. Keep thinking of vehicles as equipment so I kept looking around in that section for them.

I've added Vehicles and Starships links to the Master Armour base page to hopefully help people looking for them. I might make it a bit more clear later.

Scythemonkey,

I've tried downloading the Web page but it doesn't work. I get the background and the menu's on the left of the screen but the data table in the middle is missing. Any thoughts as this is such a useful resource when I do have net access?
