  1. Allow 4k scaling

    I got a 13 inch laptop with a 4k screen and can hardly read anything in the app. It would be great if it would recognize HiDPI monitors, or have a HiDPI mode to increase the font sizes.
    All in all, great app. Love what you do. Would really like to be able to use it at the gamestore.

  2. Sort by unit attributes

    Develop a "sort" mechanism so users may build lists by faction, PL, points, attributes and display in ascending/descending, order then refine with filters.

    For example: Query column "A", for values 3+; query column "PL", for values 6+, Query column "faction", for Imperium; Query column "chapter/sub_type", for Space wolves.

    Thunderwolf Calvary should be there somewhere :)

    Thank you for all you do.

  4. Option to hide Primaris units in SM rosters

    Several (all?) of the Space Marine-related army lists allow you to toggle the "Show Primaris Only" option, which is appreciated, but I would very much like to be able to do the opposite as well.

    The SM rosters are getting unmanageable and hard to read at this point, given the sheer number of choices available. Being able to filter out some of the huge number of options listed would be great, both for readability and usability.

  5. Display errors when exporting rosters to PDF.

    Display errors when you export the roster to pdf, so you can easily check other people's list and see if they are legit without copying their lists to BS.

  6. Add css classes to all container elements in html output

    Add css classes to all container elements in the html output (e.g. tables for weapon stats). This will make ut easier to add custom stylesheets.

  9. Bug Report: Opening Roster Opens Wrong Battlescribe version

    I'm using v2.03.21 on Windows 10.

    Whenever I open a roster file (.rosz) it opens on older version of Battlescribe, specifically v2.01.15 and asks me to update to the newest version. Which I then do. When I open the roster again the same thing will happen. I can open RosterEditor.exe manually, this open v2.03.21, opening rosters from here works as you would expect.

    I've tried completely uninstalling Battlescribe, oddly enough when I do this I can still open rosters, when doing so it opens v2.01.15. I tried reinstalling Battlescribe (v2.03.21) and specifically telling windows to open rosters with the newly…

  10. Bug: Host Raptorial Specialist Detachment not working

    I'm using BattleScribe on Win10 and I'm unable to give my warlord the CHIROPTERAN WINGS Artifact of Chaos or the THE TIP OF THE CLAW Warlord Trait for my Specialist Detachment. I tried this on the Chaos Lord with Jump Pack, Daemon Prince with Wings, and Sorcerer with Jump Pack but none works. This was working fine on the 8th Edition which makes me think this is a bug.

  12. Bug Report: Unable to launch battlescribe

    Battlescribe no longer launches. After updating to 2.01, shortcuts and the executable files no longer worked for launching Battlescribe. The Jar files within the battlescribe folder still allowed the program to be launched.

    Since the most recent update, however, using the jar files to launch no longer does anything.

    The executables still don't work so there is no way for me to use the program.
    Trying to launch the Jar files results in the following error message now.

    A JNI error occurred, please check your installation and try again.

    A java exception has occurred.

  13. The "Show Preview Popups" display `time needs to be adjusted.

    Just updated to 2.03.17 and the preview popups now flash for an unreadable instant and go away. Adjusting them to be closer to what they were before would be great. I don't have everything memorized and it was extremely helpful to look at the options without having to select all of them and read them as you changed them. Having it come up if you hold the right mouse button would also be a great option, but I found the preview popups very helpful and would like to use them again.

  14. Unusabley slow

    Hi, seems to have gone from a fantastic app to useless as the size of an army list has grown.


    • What version of the app are you using?
      v2.03.22.333


    • What device are you using it on?
      Samsung Galaxy A50


    • What version of iOS, Android, Windows or macOS do you have?
      Android 9


    • Do you see an error message? What exactly does it say?
      No, it just takes ages to do anything at all. E.g: (times in seconds)


    • open army (5k points): (screen goes black for about 10s) 16s, 22s,

    • go back to roster from about screen: 14s

    • click Warlord on…

    Newest version 2.03.15 for Windows 10
    You can no longer save Roster as an image file... not even when attempting to copy output to clipboard and pasting into photoshop or paint/

  17. Aggression of pop-ups seems to be predicated on the change in position of folders.

    2.03.16 Windows 10
    Once a pop-up loads, pop-ups lose any delay to appear until a folder is expanded/retracted.
    In addition, the pop-ups don't seem to scale well with their content, creating a lot of white space that does nothing but stand in the way of other content.

  18. Latest version on OSX appears to have strange security issues

    Firstly wont download from in App and then requires you to agree to unsigned installation (which might be fine)

    Then the first think it does is ask to have access to keystrokes from other aplications... no reason given

    All just feels a bit 'dodgey' like is this the real version?

  19. Re-enable adding new detachments to an army in-progress

    Using v2.03.15. Can no longer add a new detachment while building an army. Have to start a whole new file, duplicating a lot of work. Very frustrating. Please restore original functionality.

  20. Restore the bottom section with errors

    Using v2.03.15, the bottom section that had the reminders about your army (ex. too many weapons on this unit, warlord trait needed, etc.) is gone. I found this feature enormously helpful, along with notifications when the army wasn't legal. I don't know why this was removed, but this was not an improvement.
