Army Builder Files

Post by Zergo »

Hey all,
I'm a big fan of the program Army Builder, but the only version of BloodBowl that anyone seems to have made files for is an older one. Version 2.0, I think. Are there any programming-savvy types out there who are working on AB files for LRB/4.0 BBowl? Or anyone who would like to give it a shot? I would, but I'm not much for the whole programming thing. C++ scares me.

AB programing is just like building a Database, with a few filters added in. C++ has noting to do with it.

Their is a version of the Bloodbowl definition files that works with the lates version of AB, but it is only for version 4/bbm1 of blood bowl not BBannual02/5th edition.

Most people just use an excel spreadsheet that GW put out. I use the TeamTraker spreadsheet that can be found on Blood Bowl.net. You do need excel or anoter program that can read excel spreadsheets though.

If enough people want it, I am shure someone will look into doing a current definition file for Army Builder.

There's a nice alternative spreadsheet here: http://www.chez.com/bbtg/

Dangerous Dave's put together a pretty cool version as well, there's also some other alternatives, the download links are on Spyke's Little League site:

There are indeed files that are pretty close. They are current to August of 2002. Has anything changed roster wise since then?

<EDIT> There's also a little update package that includes all the 2002 Annual stuff:

You may or may not have to join the yahoogroup to get them though. If it ends up being a hassle, post your email address and I'll email you a copy as an attachment.
