Warhammer Age of Sigmar

maybe let people input their codes early if your gonna release the battletome early

padlock rules and list building

Latest update has the app crashing constantly whilst images are being downloaded. Combined with paying for a battletome and then being unable to create lists without an additional monthly cost, it's just not worth it.

Very easy to navigate, and build a list. Plus a lot of nice touches like how you can see what the models look like. Makes sense that you have to buy the rules to scan them online, very nice though

they just need to add a favorite battletome button that way is easier to get into your armies like in there 40k contra part.

falsely advertised as free app then monetize everything inside the app

Wish it was more useful allowing at least 2 lists to be made. We pay for the codes to unlock all the already, why do we have to also pay again to make lists to play the game.

Pay out the nose for the app, then pay for every other bit of content you need to play inside. save your coin and find a free 3rd party app

I'm not going to complain about "paywalls" because GW was upfront about the changes when 4th edition released. Recent QoL changes in the app have been much appreciated, like putting Ward saves at the top of the warscroll instead of hidden at the bottom in the unit keywords. The biggest drawback with the app is trying to use it for referencing rules. The search function in the app is atrocious and search results give no preview, forcing you to tap through several results.

Paywall is just bad

I will ignore the business strategy of GW to put rules behind paywalls and charging for WH+ if you want to make multiple lists as that isn't reviewing the app functionality itself. Overall the app gets a 4/5 from me. It is generally easy to use and is fast + responsive. Improvement suggestions would be inclusion of Path to Glory (PTG) rules, a PTG roster/tracker, and cleaning up the search function as how it displays the rules results can be confusing when looking up specific rules.

great tool, i hope the new function in 40k (war journal) can be applied here as well, in the near future

Incredible.

functional, free for spearhead users, and yes everything costs money, thats how the world works. only issue is the subscription not coming with a whole lot of extras, but at its price, its fine. better than using wahpedia

pointless paywall unit details. it's terrible design.

I hate the bloody pay wall to review my opponents lists during league and gt events!!!

Essential for warhammer age of sigmar, love it

This is why Wahapedia exists.

Easy to use, great for list building and gaming with. Simple, effective, happy days.

Its crazy how they can alienate their consumers like they do. instead of being a tool, it becomes inconvenience that you needs to pay for. there are not only better and free tools like this one out there, use those instead

it was an amazing experience needs practically no pay and everything u need is included

Literally everything is paywall locked. They advertise one free army list, but when you add units you cant even see what they do. trying to get into Warhammer and this thing is a huge obstacle more than a help. Terrible for new players.

What a poorly designed app. How embarrassing for a company that makes the money GW does, to not pay someone to design a decent app. why do I need to click 6 drop-down menus just to see what my revnants' stats are? Figure it out, bud.

horrible

The reason why I'm even rating this app >4 stars< is because I don't know why people are complaining sooo much.-seriously guys. This app is really good. The real reason why GW doesn't want this app to be COMPLETELY free is because they want to at least make a little extra profit.-If you want to have your army on the go, just simply enter the code.-The code comes with all decently recent faction books and cost around 40-50$, I agree it's a little pricey, but, it is decent price for the quality.

Great

As others have said, everything is behind paywalls, but that's just Games Workshop. The bigger issue is trying to use the app for rules reference. If you try to search up even the basic rules you'll get pages of useless errata and FAQ results before you ever find the actual rule. Add that it will return zero results if you don't type in the exact phrase or word, including punctuation like hyphens, and the app ends up being a huge chore to use for anything other than list building.

useless app, utterly useless.

this app is completely unusable now with the most recent update. basically a pay for our physical rulebooks for each and every faction to unlock the ability to see anything in the app. already pay for overpriced models and now the app wants you to buy more physical content that will become obsolete after the next update hits.

Can not build a list numbers go crazy without explaining why. It is a very hard read none of it makes sense and by now it shows you could care less.

wonderful

To unlock everything you need to pay more than an army or supplies.

really great for list building, as long as you bought the book.

Solid tool for list building and gameplay. While not perfect, needing improvement in how information is presented during its gameplay mode, works as you'd hope. Deserves a higher rating that it currently has. Assuming is low due to previous iterations or perhaps GWs predatory must buy the physical book for a code business model?

App works fine. Easy to keep track of my lists and information, very reliable for what you need and always up to date. The year subscription gives you the shows and animations, the app is just a nice bonus. Which is worth it to me value wise, you get a lot all together

good for spearhead rules but the new tomes (faction rule/stats changes) are now pay-walled and locked away making the app worthless for any factions that have a recent updates

cool. I get to pay them after paying them to get the miniatures only to have to pay them to get the rules and army list builder that I already paid them to play with. This app is booty.

wish this was free to use as the game is a lot of money already

I'm paying (or was paying) a subscription to unlock content. There's still a ton of content locked and no clue how to access it.

cannot for the life of me understand why anvil of apotheosis creator isn't in this app

good

was ALOT better when you could make multiple lists in the app for free. Rules should be free and would encourage people to experiment and then buy armies..

multiple pay walls. if you thought paying monthly is enough you are dead wrong. content is regularly removed and placed behind new pay walls

Fine app for list building, but I'd love to see some functionality for Path to Glory added.

an unstable user-unfriendly app that unreasonably locks off most of the battlescrolls and unique functionalities behinf a paywall. paying 6.99 per month for a game thats already the most aggressively monetized game out there and not even getting a stable app in return is just insulting.

New player here, This should be a free App, I have already paid £100s for the plastic miniatures, paints and gaming equipment. Now they want an extra £6.99 per month for an App where I can't even see what my army or my opponents army does. I'll cancel this subscription and find a better alternative.

stop the greed

why isn't there synchronization between devices it is very annoying having to make the same list on your phone and tablet, and why can't I watch warhammertv in Iceland with out using a vpn it is ridiculous this app could be so much better with just a little more thought

I cannot find anything I am looking for.

Paywalling unit rules in a competitive board game makes this application near useless.

making lists works very well and the overview ingame is great. looking up rules feels sometimes a bit messy where to find them

The App loses out on a lot of functionality by not allowing one to read unit battlescrolls from factions with books out. Which leads to simple issues like not being able to rulecheck during games. Further it is a mess to try and navigate to get to what you want to see, and needing to pay to build more than one list is a unnecessary additive cost when someone already has to pay for the book, models, paints and accessories to play the game.

great app! only wish is that I could upload custom thumbnails of my minis that it would display when looking at the rules cause it would make what I'm looking for easier to find.

Tolle App ich bin selber warhammer Fan also perfekt

to much pay wall and how hard is it to have my list connect between devices really annoying to have to make the list again

the halsniths are here!

significant loss of functionality from the prior edition

The app is pretty good, but GW greed makes it a bit annoying.

fantastic game tool

can't create a user and go on from there... the webView is just hanging. Please fix it so me and my kid can enjoy some aos.

Horrible. Unusable without spending a ton of money on physical books. GW is trash.

the app is good the pay wall is terrible. whenever I want to start a new faction I want to check out their rules and can't.

I love the app works great for play on the tabletop. If you can't afford to pay a few dollars per month for the convience of rules of a game on your app but yet want to pay hundreds of dollars for an army and hundreds to paint and base I think you may have your priorities confused.

Not at all consumer friendly, pay 7$ a month for all features only for each army to be locked behind aditional 60$ paywalls one the codex drops. Not to mention rules are restricted whenever a new generals handbooks drops.

Paywall for basic things... extremely uninviting to new players.

This app is virtually useless except for use in Spearhead. Why is so much of the warscrolls content locked when all of the hidden content is freely available for download from the Warhammer Community?

Not great. I mean, it's a huge resource, but now it's all pay wall locked and feels greedy. Every update just adds more ways to make you pay. I recommend using the free online 3rd part options.

very very slow to update.. chaos dwarves released sep 27 and app still not updated with army 2-3 WEEKS later...

Got my first set of warhammer and put it all together. Went to go play with my buddy for the first time and found we can't look up a bunch of stuff without a subscription. Seeing this and everyone else's reviews, I think ima get out before I even start. Definitely don't have good vibes at all from this.

A must have for playing spearhead and has a nice collection of all the rules for free. Basically everything else is behind a paywall though, so for listbuilding just go to newrecruit or battlescribe

I'm sorry. I have to pay just to build a list? I can only have one list without paying? holy rip off Batman

So many different paywalls

it's paywalled behind $60 codexes PER FACTION and to make more than one list you gotta buy Warhammer plus. Use baftlescribe to make lists instead and wahapedia for anything else

the app is wonderful reference point, but the fact that I have to bounce around to find different information is extremely exasperating this is not a replacement for a physical reference more of a larger Library so that you do not have to purchase so many physical references

Poor UI and UX, and a massive rip off

Paywall for even looking at rules like warscrolls. if you uninstall, all your lists will disappear, leaving you with the option of only one list. to create armies of renown, you need to sub or create a new list (can't select it with existing lists). I'll only use this for spearhead, greedworkshop does not care at all about their player base. you are just $$$ to them.

Installed, immediately hit with pay wall. Uninstalled, went and got a pdf of what I needed. Games workshop greed is out of control.

Now behind a sub paywall, and then to actually access the content there is another paywall to buy the physical book copy of each faction at £37 a pop. All this information is available in pdf for free online if you look in the right places. Do not feed this anti consumer greed machine of an app

BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!!

unless your really into giving GW all your money this app doesn't help you. without their subscription or $60 per army books, you won't be able to do much. you can make 1 list, but you won't be able to see stats. honestly I don't see a point if you want a free app that will actually help you.

Why does this not show up in the results on the play store after searching for Age of Sigmar? i had to go through another search engine just to find it

The fact that you spend hundreds of euros on models but can't even check their stats in the app without paying more is a massive scam

feels like a poorly managed money grab from GW

confusing for a new player

tons of stuff locked behind paywall. I already sold a kidney for the plastic to build these armies don't lock the rules behind even more money.

great app just have to pay for most of it

it's a fantastic app TBF, the only thing holding it back is the realmgate orders are non sensical, if they listed all the abilities you can use and all unit abilities in phase order this would be a 5 star app for me.

decent enough app, but why does it not have a "favorites" section for reference like the 40k app does? really weird and not user friendly at all.

if subscription removed book paywall so be best app

The app is great if you are loaded with money. You have to buy the Battletome for each army you want to see warscrolls for. Besides the price, the app works pretty great. All they need to do to fix it is stop being greedy. Buying any battletome should unlock them all at the very least. Most people only invest in one faction but we still need to see the others!

Honestly works pretty well for me. Once it gets an update, super easy to build a list with.

what used to be free, now won't work unless you spend money on books. not all of us in the hobby are rich enough to buy the tomes. shame.

I was thinking about getting into this game but everything seems to be behind a pay wall. I'm going to stick with War Machine where the unit descriptions are free.

it doesn't work properly, they've locked everything behind pay walls that used to be free, it's hard to navigate but it's all we have (officially)

all business, no game here, you can't even look at how to score or play or what your ridiculously overpriced bits of plastic can do without buying 20 battle tomes(£37 each) and general hand book (another £30) and core book (£30) after spending however much on building your army in the first place (£200minimum) GW are actually a joke, do you even want people to get into the hobby?! and after building an army, points change!! now it doesn't work need to buy something else! mental, just mental

it works, but rules should be free, not slowly locked and limited over time. use a free app instead.

At least give us the option to purchase the digital rules for cheaper than buying a 60 dollar physical battletome for an army that we don't play. I get y'all are greedy capitalists but you're leaving money on the table, so you're not even good at being greedy capitalists. edit: wish I could drop lower than the 1 star I already gave it. New season paywalls things you need for every matched play game like battle tactics behind a physical book purchase. GW is trying to kill its community.

as many others have said it's good for list building. also good for a rules reference (although new handbook will be paywalled so will no longer be true) paywalling the scrolls behind the tomes is predatory business practice. they are always available for free if you look hard enough. I encourage everyone to stop paying for tomes until they revert back to how it was in AOS 3.

having all the info makes a complex game less unnecessarily complex. but of an update to 4th edition would be nice since now I this doesn't have the prayers for maggotkin of nurgle

app works really well, specially for spearhead. knocking one star down because rules for the full game should also be free

App requires you to get a code in the back of codexs if you want to see updates to units after codex launch. Updates feel intentionally slow, has no support for custom point limits or path to glory games. when the edition started the app was amazing. you could look at all the armies in the game and it let you see if you wanted to try something new that you hadn't done before. now, it's a cash grab that is barely usable and doesn't update fast enough to use a a reliable source for point costs.

PAID SUBSCRIPTION FOR MULTIPLE AMRY LISTS IS BAD!, But besides that the app does what it's supposed to. having to buy books to unlock factions is the same as in real life, can't know them without the books, so this just comes with the territory. hopefully one day this won't be the case but I don't see it as warranting a bad review.

This app must have been adapted from another because there are design decisions that would not make sense any other way. There are better list building options out there. The locking of warscrolls behind paywalls is a choice and the limit of one army list without subscribing is anti-consumer. Overall, one of the worst experiences for how much you pay in terms of wargame apps i have encountered.

Ok for what it is. But Games Workshop cannot truly expect me to buy a book ($60 USD), my army ($485 USD), and expect me to pay for a subscription to their own bespoke app which is REQUIRED for points totals. And they do not even include things for the alternate game modes such as Path to Glory (Their narrative campaign) or Spearhead. The app is fine but is incredibly barebones. One army only in the free version and no Upgrade charts or anything Path to Glory. Shenanigans of the highest order.

Not only is content locked behind paywalls (exclusively accessible through buying physical books which become obsolete within months)... But there are matched play rules (used for competitive play) that are not updated in real time with balance updates posted on the official Warhammer Community website. I've brought 2 armies to tournaments in the past 4 months which have had outdated rules on the Storm Forge feature of this app (even with the latest version). It is no longer viable in any way.

The App itself, by all means, functions quite well. The paywall structuring however, with everything requiring a bloody paperback tome, is insanity. Either allow people to purchase the digital tome fro a small amount, or release the goddamn rules for the game to everyone. Make people enthousiastic to buy the VERY expensive plastic!

Paid $99au for the ability to store more than one army list. Can't access battletraits without the additional $100 battletome for each army. After paying thousands for models, paints and brushes, GW want more just to be able to play a game. Imagine being a kid trying to get into this hobby and not having a banker for a Dad. Predatory business practices. Shame on GW.

As if the game wasn't already expensive enough, they have found a way to make it even more expensive by requiring payment for very basic rules needed to play a simple game. Imagine if Monopoly sold you the game board, pieces, money, and rulebook all separately. Hopefully tournament organizers refuse to use this ap as the official list submission for all events this edition.

Used to be much better but everything is paywalled, even basic unit stats from new books. No longer possible to use to look up opponent units or anything. Very aggressively terrible, even if you pay them monthly you STILL don't get basic Warscroll rules. I paid for Warhammer+ from launch until this past month, I never will again unless warscrolls go back to being free or included in the sub. I'm not going to pay for a service that can't even provide me with basic needed features.

When first launching AOS one of the big selling points was that Warscrolls could be viewed by all. Now all new profiles will be behind a paywall. A terribly greedy back slide, which damages the player experience as you now can't check on opponents information or browse a new army. Really leaves a sour taste and makes me think twice about wanting to carry on with the hobby.

App did a pretty good of letting you look at rules before you obtained a Battletome. But, as of today. The update locks all Skaven content behind a paywall. If I was interested in playing skaven this would be discouraging because I could view the rules beforehand. Definitely hinders any new investment for me.

Not having at least warscrolls free and unpaywalled leaves players blind in a game where I have to rely on my opponent either proving his rules or supplying a copy. I don't want to have to buy battletomes for armies I don't own. I used to browse armies and look at warscrolls which would get me interested in an army and led to me buying some armies I now have. However slowly but surely as each battletome comes out each faction pack will be whittled away until everything is just locked away.

Adding one star as you can now copy lists. I often need to know keywords for command abilities but rules are written in long text without the info required New version is even worse, it has all the same window problems but now has a subscription model which will offer further and further lessaas books are released. This is anti consumer and false advertisement

The app doesn't update timely with point changes or rule changes. You have to buy physical books to view some of the materials in the app. The glossary search doesn't always show what you need to find quickly in a game. Beyond being a paid subscription to write down what you're taking in your lists I'm not sure what the point of this app is.

I have gone back to using a pencil and notebook while punching my own face for a more enjoyable experience. Bring back free scrolls like the prior app and not pay wall everything. I don't want to buy a book just to make sure my opponent and I are on the same page for rules. 0 stars

Paywalling this much is criminal, even for Games Workshop. Such arbitrary restrictions that can be easily bypassed via several methods. The layout all-in-all seems fine and is an upgrade from the prior version, however the amount of greed shrouding the app is absurd. Use wahapedia and the various other list building apps on the app store

Down from 5 stars. Hiding every single rule behind a paywall now. You have to now pay for a Warhammer subscription to make more than one list, then you have to buy each and every battletome that will come out to see rules from other armies. We've always been able to at least see warscrolls from every army, for free! And now they are getting really greedy! Instead of my subscription and buying battletomes for all my 6 armies, I now won't buy any battletomes and I've cancelled my sub

The app itself is OK, but the decision to paywall armies completely as battletomes are released is absurd. It defeats the purpose of havi g a reference app in the first place. How do I check if I want to collect another army? What is my opponent running? How do I shop for regiments of renown, since new ones are locked behind battletomes? I'd understand some limitations, like in the previous AOS app, but right now the app is gonna get worse and worse as time goes on.

Terrible, app you need the suncription to warhammer + and if your subscribe from the app it will not link to your Gw account, and if you email gw they won't be able to fix the problem. Emailed them on the second they replied on the 6th with " we will escalate to developers" I followed up on the 15th and still no response. 0 starts.

The app is now behind a pay wall. I've paid thousands for minis and books over the years and with out paying a subscription i can now only build 1 army list at a time. I use the lists to check other armies and strategies and now find a lot of the fun of list building is gone. I can not check up on what units to buy for my next army I'm planning to do and it is much harder to plan for my upcoming games. Clearly app is designed to get a paid subscription from there player base above helping play .

I understand you want to make money somehow, but when Warhammer + doesn't even unlock all the features for the app, you guys are destroying the game. Warhammer+ just lets you create more than one army, but you cant see that army unless you buy the book. And the book is worthless since the rules get updated every month. you guys need to seriously get it together or YOU WILL LOSE PLAYERS!... They will altogether stop buying from you, and then you'll wonder what happened.

So I paid for the old app and had a great time with it experimenting with army lists and checking out other factions, its the reason I have 3 2000pt armies and another few 1000pt ones. Very disappointed to see GW went the 40k route with this app when one of the big selling points for aos was that the warscrolls would be free. Now I'd have to pay twice for the chance to see if I like an armies' units and I simply won't be doing that.

This feels like a complete step back, without a paid subscription you're limited to a single saved army, there's no support for battallions, and it feels like less information and previews of the models. The old app and AoS themes had me interested in picking up the hobby, but if this is the direction they're heading in, no thank you.

Walking into a game not knowing anything about my opponents army is an unnecessary barrier in this game. For a while I was able to read up on enemy units which was not only good for strategy (getting excited about the game itself) But for a smooth game. Now you have to pay hundreds of dollars to be able to gain knowledge in the game or walk in unprepared and sloppy, which hurts the community.

Decent at first, when it was similar to the old app. Unfortunately, they have decided to lock everything behind pay walls. You pay 100 euros for the model. Then, they change the rules, and lock you out of your warscrolls. Want more than one army...too bad to that as well.

Its sad that i am not even that surprised that they took away availability from the app. If i collect/play an army, i want to buy the book for the extras and lore, but if im on the fence about starting a new army then why make it so much harder and almost a non choice to do so? If i dont know what the army do i cant really plan purchases or theory craft anything.. :( wich is sometimes half the hobby for me when i dont have any spare time to paint or play. Hope they change their minds about this.

Everything useful is behind a paywall. You need a warhammer+ subscription to meaningfully use the app AND a a purchased battletome for any faction you want to see. This app could and should be a tool that makes the rules easily accessible and allows people to build army lists that they will eventually spend hundreds of dollars on to buy. Instead it's cash-grab paywall garbage. Rules should be free and gw should be making everything as accessible as possible so people buy more minis

Everything WAS free. Following a recent patch, now a lot of content is locked behind a subscription style pay-wall. Additionally, to access material for each faction, individual purchases must also be made, making the subscription model near obsolete as the game develops, and requiring the user to make even more purchases. This app is clearly anti-consumer and so I do not recommend anyone use it. Better products are elsewhere.

Last straw, I used to play with my friends and tried to get them into the hobby by showing the app and through it help them find an army that they'd want to play as and theory craft an army or 2. Cannot do that anymore, cant check my opponents statistics, this ruins the app and casual play. Do not download, dont play the game.

Everything is being locked behind multiple pay walls, including unit warscrolls. In order to make more than one list at a time, you will need a subscription. In order to view any rules for an army whose book has been released, you will need to purchase said book. This includes the warscrolls. You can't even view what a unit is equipped with, or what they do, or how many models are in the unit, unless you buy the book for that faction.

The paywall on the army builder makes this app useless. I buy the books and cards for my armies (which are also paywalled on the app). And I wanted the app to play with army lists. Only being able to build one list without a monthly subscription makes this a pointless app. I much preferred the one for the previous edition.

This App is useless unless you pay for expensive books to access the app data for each faction. And you also need a subscription to a very poor video service for army list building. Current 3yr cost to get list building and the warscrolls in the app would be $1631.64 plus tax in the USA or $543.88 plus tax on average per year. No thanks

Was great, used it a ton, and the old versions for years, but now rules are locked behind paywalls and you cant just browse units unless you buy the physical book and enter a code. The subscription is only for the army builder so expensive enough when you still have to buy the rules for anything you want to look at. Its going the way of the 40k app that gets barely any use because everything is locked.

Took away everything that was free that made the app usable. Can't even check warscrolls for possible models I am interested in, or build a list to get an idea of an army I may want to pursue, etc. And even if you have Warhammer+ you still can't unlock the warscrolls, you still need the battletome (as it's always been, but still). The App has gone backwards, so has the game, and company. Games workshop needs to do better for its customers, future customers, it's business, and the hobby.

Took an app that was amazing and did everything that was needed and basically killed it. Can't even view the basic info any more. Really is a shame as this was miles above the 40k app and has now been dropped down to match it. Honestly better to just uninstall it and not bother.

I'd give it zero if I could. Hiding warscrolls behind a paywall is a joke. Subscription to WH+ to save more than one list is pathetic. The drop-down selectors are annoying. The export text format is illegible. Menus are not intuitive. Complete disrespect and disregard for loyal consumers. This is terrible. I hate this app so much.

This is the laziest app I've ever seen and then you paywalled the content. I'm forced to assume some kind of nepotism was involved because if I or anyone else coded something this bad we'd be out of a job. The menu tree is horrendous. I've found it faster to look through my physical rulebook than find a rule in this app. The search function is trash and prioritizes the glossary with incomplete information. Y'all seriously used the default lexicographical sort order? Is this baby's first project?

The UI is pretty darn bad, dropdown galore. Its even worse than the last app. The planned monetization is very poorly thought out. Not able to check out the list you are facing or what it can do... And the warhammer+ subscription you need yo have to even use the app. Can't recommend Age of sigmar anymore. If you gonna play use wahapedia.

I'm not paying hundreds of dollars just to buy books for armies I don't have that will be outdated in a month. I love the layout and function of the app but GW shot themselves in the foot. You had an amazing thing going here, 4th edition was making a killing, but now you've made it basically impossible for new players to check out what they may like easily, and for veteran players we now can't look at other armies to strategize. Fix this.

Once again just like the 40k app, please by all that's good of Sigmar. Games workshop stop pay walling your rules. Oh "but you can use the free version" well once the new battle tomes come out then they are no longer viewable. Let me see your rules for the game and let my money be spent on minis instead.

Restricting us to one list is ridiculous if we have already spent enough money on models to need multiple lists saved at a time. The rules finder is broken and will often just say "Yep, the rule you are looking for exists". Navigating the dropdown menus is unintuitive and annoying.

So after buying an army, you have to spend an additional $60 for a book whose warscrolls might be out of date by the time it shipped (looking at you, Votann) to use an app that costs $8 a month and delivers an absolutely dreadful end user experience? Other game companies deliver a free rules app that's worlds above this. GW is the market leader so they figure people will just pay whatever they say to pay. And they're probably right. But I for one will not.

This was a fine app right up until good ole games workshop decided to lock list building and warscrolls behind a paywall. You know, the two things you would download this app for. I will be seeking alternative ways to build lists, because I would truly rather hand write my lists than give into this level of greed.

Simply doesn't provide enough value to justify a subscription as well as the need to buy $60 physical books/codes (which the app is useless without). I expect to get far more utility than is otherwise available (with other free or self-rigged options) for the high premiums GW are charging.

The fact that after 3 editions of free warscrolls, something that was integral to the AoS experience has now been taken away is ridiculous. Pure greed - we know GW doesn't need it, they've been perfectly fine without it for the past 3 editions alongside record profits year on year. It's not only greedy, it's also actively detrimental to playing Age of Sigmar - how am I meant to reference my opponents units, or look at Regiments of Renown? Utter disappointment, should be ashamed of themselves.

So the app is free, great. To build armies you have to have a subscription to Warhammer+...... Ok fine..... To see warscrolls for any factions that have a Battletome you then have to spend an extra £30-£40 on the Tome to unlock the units. Absolute joke.... So in total you have to spend £100+ to see your warscrolls for 12 months...... May aswell just go play something else that's free to view your army rules.

Every single time you open the app it now asks if you want to subscribe or proceed to the free version. Please do not shove Warhammer+ down our throats if we choose not to subscribe, this should be a "one and done" option, or a user preference to disable. A permanent bar reminding us to subscribe would better than something we need to tap every time the app is opened.

The app was cumbersome to use but manageable. However a recent update has started locking all factions behind a pay wall so anyone interested in buying a faction/unit now needs to buy a book and enter the code from the book in order to see the rules. I've moved over to newrecruit and cancelled my wh+ subscription.

Double paywall just to see warscrolls, completely anti user purely driven by greed. So i Can no longer look up a warscroll without buying their whole tome so I have no idea if I would buy them or what my opponents units do. App itself is a mess drop downs everywhere search feature is hit and miss, faction abilities on a different place to army list, artifacts on heroes in a separate drop down, all adds up to an app that's clunky and unintuitive

Locking the managing of lists and viewing of unit rules behind a paywall makes the game less accessible for new players, adds an obstacle to trying to understand your opponent's army and generally makes the game a lot more convoluted. The rules and points and list building options will always be available elsewhere, so all this does is drive your customers away from your own app. Horrible decision.

The app itself is poorly designed, tons of unessicary drop downs so GW can gate off content via paywall. The worst part, tho? No free warscrolls any longer. Your opponent says something about their model that doesn't seem right? Can't check the app real quick to find out if they are bsing or not. Free warscrolls are foundational to AoS. They are one of the biggest reasons why it worked when old fantasy did not. Same on you GW.

This app was teased as being free and useful, then multiple paywalls were added. Now you need an active Warhammer+ subscription to use the list builder, and all info on armies, including basic warscrolls, is locked unless you buy that battletome, which makes it useless for checking opponent's stats and rules. Seek other tools, this one is pure greed.

Functionality of the app is fine. Not good, just fine (as in the UX meets the minimum). The implementation of paywalling off most of the content is maliciously greedy and a punitive blow to the loyal AoS hobbyists. Tools needed to play the game should be free. Tools needed to play the game should not be predicated on owning a printed book.

Information on units is now paywalled for each faction. All the drop down menus are also very clunky. The 3e app was far better than the new one in price, information available, and the interface. I will now be using 3rd party sites to build lists, and check out warscrolls. Getting poked until we cough up more dough on a game we have probably all invested thousands into, just to be able to have a plan for what our friends are going to bring to the table is appalling.

GW has made it clear in the past they are a miniature company, not a rules company. Demanding I spend $50 on a book to be able to play a game I've spent hundreds of dollars building an army for is absurd. Plenty of wargames give free access to list builders and rules, turn a profit. GW's model of charging $50 for a book every few years that only has a few pages of necessary game information is anti consumer, and it also makes the game less flexible. Get rid of paid warscrolls.

1 available list as a non subscription user is absurd when you're spending 50$-60$ on a book for the army you're playing. Now you have to pay a monthly sub ON TOP of buying a battletome when they release. Not to mention that Warscrolls are completely locked out from people that don't own the battletome. So now you can't even look up your opponents units unless you purchase a new copy of the book yourself. App works, but being nickel and dimed for an already costly game is too much.

*update* the app has been significantly improved, and would be an easy 5 stars. However it now has the individual unit stats pay walled for the first time in 9 years, a massive step back in accessibility for new and veteran players alike. Games Workshop made the perfect digital wishlist/army builder and then made it gradually more and more unusable for their own customers, and now it's worthless. Side note, the Warhammer+ subscription doesn't even let you access anything, so I've canceled mine.

It was great when you could read the rules and study up on the armies you don't own in a pretty easy to access way. But locking list building behind a subscription and the stats behind battletomes I've lost interest in using the app. I'm sure I can find rules online.

Used this to build an army for skaventide box, as well as looking forward to getting the new skaven models, but now its all payfortressed. Pure greeding from a company so out of touch with reality that they actually inhibit their ability to make money. If the subscription provided everything then it'd be borderline. But the fact you need to buy the books behind the subcription to access outdated information is cancer plain and simple. Dont use this just make lists in excel its actually better.

Great app, easy to use, formatting is decent, and the rules are slowly becoming impossible to view without paying big money for rule books... The inability to view my opponent's army rules, or prospective next army rules, makes this app useless for anything other than armies I already have the rules for, and for those id rather have the cards at the table, not the app. Not spending $1000+ to unlock all rules thanks.

If I can give this zero stars. I would. From the bad UI, to a paywall & Everuthing in between. This game is not worth the money one spends on it. Honestly, people are better off finding a different hobby. Which is a shame cause the game is pretty fun.

Great working app! Love using it! Unfortunately, games workshop is greed incarnate and charges players absurd amounts of money for the most basic component needed to even play the bloody game. I spent thousands on your minis, get out of my wallet with this garbage pay wall on the rules

App is functional and works but having every tome warscroll behind a paywall is dumb . Now you cant quickly assess your opponents units without stopping the flow of the game and writing it down and looking at their phone. Can't casually make lists with warscrolls whose units you might want to buy because that info is locked....just awful business practices with warscrolls.

I spent $230 on the Skaventide box because I wanted to start this game and was told that all the army rules were free on this app only to find that you have to spend and extra $60 on the rules. One entire army in the expense box set I bought is unplayable because this app requires you to pay and extra $60 to get my rules! Imagine if you bought Monoploy and there were no rules, just something telling you to download the Monoploy app, which tells you that you need to spend $60 on a rulebook.

GW has decided to lock down the number of lists you are allowed to have unless you subscribe, and they have also locked down all information about factions unless you own the battletome and redeem the code. This means that if I play someone with a tome, I cannot even look up the basic warscroll to check what their army does unless I also own that army. This is a change in what they have done for the entire history of age of sigma, and isn't ok.

Games Workshop is paywalling all of the rules, including individual warscrolls for units. And for the first time in Age of Sigmar, they're paywalling the list building tool. Do NOT use this app or purchase the battletomes, it's a money-grubbing scam. Rules are free on Wahapedia and New Recruit offers a decent free list builder. Not paying for these tools and hurting their bottom line is the only way to show GW that they're making the wrong decisions.

Greed strikes again. Don't update to newest version unless you want to be restricted to a single list unless you subscribe. We pay for overpriced models already we shouldn't have to pay more just to make a list. They need to back to how app use to be meaning we can see all warscrolls but have to buy battle tomes to see artifacts and the like. Or better yet keep it free with a different bonus from buying battle tome.

App has some of the same functionality as the 3rd edition app and is easy enough to navigate. I will say UI wise and looking at your information for your units is cumbersome with everything behind separate drop down boxes. Also after the update to my app, I no longer have access to my Skaven information including the warscrolls which is a shame since we had that information at least in the 3rd edition app. Worst part is book isn't out yet so I just can't play my game now this week...

Yo dawg, we put drop downs in your drop downs so you can drop down while dropping down. Too many taps to get to useful information. Edit 9/18: Dropping to 1 star and uninstalling now that warscrolls are locked behind buying a book. I don't support this kind model for accessing rules for a game. They did at least add user preferences for drop downs. Generic army rules, such as warscrolls, should be accessible and list building should be free.

It's like the 40k app but not as good so far. Drop downs open into drop downs that open into drop downs. It's not the smartest design for it, but the app is not bad. Far ahead of the old app. Edit: They've made improvements. You can have warscrolls automatically open now. All we need now is a command bunker like the 40k app. Call it war camp or war tent if you want to stay in the medieval theme. Still 3 stars, but they do have Legends, which is something they need to include in the 40k app.

Context: I run a very large Age of Sigmar community that plays via regular games, tournaments, and leagues on a weekly basis. I myself have played likely over 500 games of Age of Sigmar. This app is a complete tragedy. The first point to comment on is how AMAZING the rules for the 4E version of the game are. This app takes those rules and stuffs then into an overbearing clunky UI/UX with an awful amount of dropouts downs and fluff. PLEASE GW, look at the success of prev app versions and adjust

An inferior version of the previous app completely dominated by the need to copy the 40k app, which is itself pretty bad. Far too many dropdowns as many have mentioned and now they're going to pay wall it. The previous app was free and designed better than this rubbish. GW once again trying to nickle and dime players. Use it to quickly make some lists while it's in free beta but absolutely do not pay the subscription required for this!

Far too many drop-down boxes that aren't open by default, so you have to click over and over to read anything. The ability keywords aren't even clickable to go to the rule for that keyword. The regiment management doesn't let you save particular regiments you like, or move squads between regiments. It's a joke to think they'll want $5/month for this thing soon enough.

How many drop downs can they get in one app? Is there a record for drop downs they are trying to break? So annoying. Scrolling is okay.. faster even. This is when trying to be too helpful gets in the way, big time. Just layout the main details quick scrolling for gameplay and let people scroll.

GW: "we heard you like drop down menus? Users: "no, we don-" "Well here's a drop down menu in a drop down menu in a drop down menu" "Alright xzibit, calm down" Please. This is TERRIBLE design. I shouldn't have to go through 5 drop down menus to see the artefacts of a faction. What's worse, is you're not only going to expect us to pay for this downgrade, but we'll have to pay for a whole paper battletome just to see the warscrolls of an army.

They honestly have the gall to say "in celebration of the new edition, we're allowing all players to use the storm forge feature for a limited time" when an army builder was available for free in the previous edition. They gut the rules, dumb the whole game down, take so many unique things away from so many armies, and then have the stones to tell us we're not allowed to plan our armies before we spend hundreds, if not thousands on their product? Id say shame on GW, but they clearly have none.

Too many drop-down menus. It would've been better if you had kept to the older design somewhat; keep each alliance in a separate tab, each army in a separate tab, then sort heros and auxiliaries. Instead of having drop downs for everything, just have their full warscroll visible like the previews showed. Plus, the drop downs in the army builder are misleading. They dont show army abilities (like lores and manifestations) until you pick one. Please reduce the drop-down menus and just show things

Completely terrible UI. It's a copy of the 40k app, but worse. Have to click through 5 or 6 drop downs just to see the ability of a unit. There's no screen like the 40k app that just shows everything you have in your list. Get rid of the drop downs, just show me what the abilities are. This is a serious downgrade from the last app. Likely going to just print out the pdfs at this point, the app is too inconvenient to use

Still needs work. UI is mess. Its not intuitive at all. If you want add an artefact to hero you have to click on the dropdown menu of artfefacts. You see only the list of names. if you have no idea what it does is then you have to click on it. It will give you just the name of ability to that artefact.You have to click on the ability to see more..just 4 clicks to see what that artifact does.

All the information is there. However, compared to the previous 3rd edition iteration, the accessibility is way down. The continual tabs requiring additional touches are unnecessary and confusing. The information you're after isn't readily accessible. Once you click on a unit, open it straight into the full war scroll. It worked well in the last app, why change it?

Presumably, GW developed this app after the 40k app, given that they have the exact same layout. And yet, they didn't include the command bunker feature. It surprises me that they didn't anticipate people having the exact same problems with the AoS app as the 40k one. But, that's classic Games Workshop for ya haha

A downgrade from the previous app. The new user interface makes it difficult to see what is going on. It's now full of pictures and dark backgrounds making it hard to see compared to the old app which was clear and easy to use. The old app was free while this one is blocked by two separate pay walls. It's hard to appreciate paying for something worse when the last free thing was better... Do better Games Workshop or you'll end up losing customers.
