Useful apps, programmes and on-line resources thread?

Orlygg · Sep 14, 2013

Is there any millage in setting up a thread, or even a sub board, for online resources that may be useful to us? Things like dice rollers, graphics packages and other wargaming gubbins. I ask this because I am sure I saw a link once to a site that allowed you to create little cards for your units, complete with pictures but I cannot remember where i saw it!

Yes there is and a sticky'd thread is probably the best way. Whether it needs a new board/sub board I'm not sure but we could probably do with reorganising the boards anyway.

To start the ball roliing

Map Generator http://axiscity.hexamon.net/users/isomage/wildgen/
Dungeon Generator http://www.dizzydragon.net/adventuregenerator/gen
Battle Reports http://www.battlechronicler.com/
Gitzmans Warhammer Maps http://www.gitzmansgallery.com/

Ok that last one isn't an app but its cool.

Not pretty, but as dice throwers go, one of the best I've seen, because of user control:

I agree completely....but this app made our games of remote warhammer a fun possibility....how else could I get my ass handed to me by Gaj so thoroughly from so far away!... :lol:

A tool for every purpose!

Cheers,

Ah - but you must remember, good sir, that you are the only person on this forum who wouldn't be taken a side for 'a bit of a chat' at their office if they were caught rolling dice and consulting books full of daemons, trolls and chaos spawn.

The dice roller is an uncomfortable, but necessary work around. And it has the advantage of providing credibility for many people when there is the need to 'audit' dice rolls.
