JackStreicher Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Hello, Since the AoS Rules and Addons are very decentralised I wrote an Android App a while ago which my friends and I use to generate games in an instant. What the App does: - Generating the Mission - Toggle to include/exclude Realmscape Features - Showing an image of the Battleplan (just so you instantly know what Battle will be played) - Showing you on which page in what book you will find the rules for the game you are playing Once I know I won't violate any of GW's rights (since I used images of the Battleplan Map and I used their images for random backdrops) I will upload the app on this forum for free Feedback is needed! 😃 (especially about the legal part) Loading Screen with random "Action-Comments" Example of a generated Game. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxolotlQuestions Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 It's a great idea, but while IANAL, I believe you'd be violating quite a lot of GW's IP if you released it as is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thx! so I guess I‘ll draw the maps myself and use a more neutral non-GW background. i already did the loading icons myself do no issue there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackStreicher Posted May 24, 2019 Author Share Posted May 24, 2019 I've decided to remove all the map images for now. You can get the App right here All images are either self-made (thunder-icons) or free of any copyright 😃 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
