    Fun fun fun fun fun.

    Free service? I'd be willing to give it a shot.

    Edit: Watched the video, looks like you still need intimate knowledge of the rules, they aren't provided.

    I don't know anything about tabletop 40k but if this works well I'd play once in a while.

    I played around w it. IF we had detailed knowledge of the current 40k rules it would be a blast, and like I said, have not played for 10+ years and dont have the current rulebooks to refresh/relearn :sad:

    So poop..... need a system that has the rules/shit built in damn it! lol

    I'm guessing you just create your set in this and use it? my terminology isn't spot-on at all since I know nothing of the tabletop game, but the army or units or whatever is what i refer to as a set.

    You and your opponent make an army within the bounds of the force organization chart toward a pre determined points value. Then choose mission, and play. I have all the books required to do this. I just need someone thats willing to playtest this program with me to try it out and see how friendly it is.

    I can pre make the army lists and try this out with someone if anyone is interested. I need to get a copy installed on my computer when I get home from work tonight.

    This interests me greatly.
