Title says it all.. I'll resurrect this to try and get SOMEONE's attention!


We really need one... I can't stand shuffling through my cards every time I want to design a band. I need something to tweak things, and not have to randomize my cards yet again!

None? Really?

No way to design squad online, or with a downloadable generator?

I would assume that one day we will see one made by WotC. When did the one for DDM come out? I don't recall it being there for the first 2 sets, but coming out in the third. We may just have to wait and see if they make one for AAM as well.

On a side note, I hope that some one can do one with Bifur's warband creator.

There are several for D&D Mini's.

It's a computer program that allows you to pick and choose which units you want to use to build a squad. When done correctly, proper tags are applied and will limit your squad.

For AAM for example, you could have a field for the year that the solider/vehicle was available, so that if you wanted to work on a scenario, you could filter out those figures outside of X year.

Most will also include the stats of the pieces.

The nice thing about this is that I try to keep all my cards in order so that I can easily track them down. It's a bit of a drag to disrupt all that by playing around with cards to try to build my squad, and then ahving to sort the unused pieces back into the box.

My minis browser was partially warband generator, but it was removed after site changes. It could have been easily updated for AAM too. Is there an excel -file somewhere with AAM stats? If I find some time, I could put it up again at my site for AAM. That's a big IF though [:(].

You can use this Exel sheet for now, until someone can built a Good Warband AAM generator in Access.
