Forward Kommander, Mk2 online Force Constructor

[Yentz]

I would just like to say, thanks for the awesome work on this. I use Forward Kommander for pretty much everything now.

I actually prefer it over ibodger on my Motorola Droid phone, since it's easier to work with, and manage, and I can do it from my computer, as well as my phone.

But I would like to recommend changing the pop-up for Loading Armies. Unfortunately, it is impossible to scroll through the armies on a droid. Any way the load screen could be change to make to more friendly for Smart Phones?

Any way we could have a "work friendly" skin? A header saying "Sales Figure Analysis Tools" and a big banner saying "Increase your productivity!"

This is an awesome idea!

A bug with the eKreoss theme army (and possibly other theme armies as well): One of the tiers gives you a free Seneschall. I take the Knights Exemplar Seneschall. I also take an Errant Seneschall and pay the 2 points for it. So far everything is correct. But in "copy to clipboard", BOTH Seneschalls are listed as "0pts" which is incorrect.

[Hondaluth]

This is a great tool!

I found one minor error, for the Retribution warcaster Vyros when adding the Dawnguard Scyir it loses any tier marks. I.e. the Scyir is not included in the metals bonus, however the Scyir FA is increased per the tier one bonus.

[blakmagik13]

First, I want to say that this tool is awesome. I use it all of the time at home and at work (only while I'm at lunch, of course). A couple of things that would help me:

I am using IE 6 (only thing I can use at work) and when I bring up the load box, the dropdown lists for faction appear in front of the load box so that I can barely see the first army. If I could move the load box, I assume that would fix the problem, but I don't seem to be able to. Is anyone else having this issue, or is it because I am on IE 6?

And, I know that you are very busy fixing bugs and I'm sure you have a life outside of this, but it would be really cool if...

You could integrate the Collection Manger into the Army Builder so that there would be an option to only show the models that you own. It would just be a little easier to build an army if you had just your options listed that you wouldn't have to go out and buy.

Thanks again for all of your hard work!

[Hatred]

Some updates to be added.

Cryx could use the Satyxis Raider Sea Captain added to their list options.

Also the other Cryx casters tier lists additions.


Trolls could use the Runebearer added into their list options.

[kilvati]

It took some time, but finally! I left some bugfixes over for the next release, but at least now we have cryx and some of the fixes.
Thanks to Sara, for moving in, love you and can't live without you!
Thanks to John, Vinnie and Xas: Added cryx tiers and missing models info.
Thanks to Tom, John and Eric: Hey. Thanks for the great tool. It's awesome. Just wanted to let you know that Narn and Eiryss both count as Mage Hunters for Kaelyssa's 3rd tier lists, as currently it's impossible to get to Kaelyssa's Tier 3 or 4 with ForwardKommander.
Thanks to Adam: Just wanted to point out epic irusk tier should allow widowmakers. Thanks for all your work on this great tool.
Thanks to Sasori and Tim: I would just like to point out that the Amon tiers are broken. I think it's due to the fact that the Order of the fist solos are not listed in the tier one specifications, so when you try to add one, the tier goes away.
Thanks to Arekku: In tier-1 of the "High Exemplar Kreoss" there are a mistake, puts "blessing of vengeance" as correct option and is not like that, the correct option is " fire of salvation".
Thanks to Arian: I noticed you included the Cephalyx Mind Slaver & Drudges in the 4* list they are unavailable to take in any merc contract. just letting you know so there is no confusion for people using your list builder
Thanks to Richard: Hey, just thought I'd notify you, Dawnlord Vyros' tiers are wrong, tier 1 does not include the Dawnguard Scyir
Thanks to John: Epic Feora tier list is broken. Tier 2 it says you need 2 Temple Flameguard units, but it allows Flameguard Cleansners and Daughters of the flame. When it really is just Temple Flameguard.

[SnakeEyes]

Awesome! Thanks for all your continued work on this program.

This issue is a little late to the party but...
The Harbinger Tier 4 benefit makes all heavies 1 point cheaper (including the Avatar). That's not working.

[CyrDraconis]

Post-release Circle update -
Woldguardian is 9 points.
Woldwatcher changed to 5 points. No other pointcost changes for Circle that I noticed.

[Northern Ronin]

Some things I noticed while messing around;
With lists that allow a Cost Reduction and something which becomes FA: U, the cost reduction stops applying after you pass a normal Field Allowance (i.e Kraye can take unlimited Rangers at 4 points, but after adding 2 Units, the builder thinks they should cost 5 each after that).
Epic Sorscha is allowed any Winter Guard Unit while keeping theme, but it seemed to think the Field Gun broke theme (Didn't think to try with the Mortar).

[FerrusManus]

It would be very nice if you could add some small highlight effect to units that are allowed in the theme force, so you don't need to constantly check the tooltip. Like make the the backgrounds slightly brow or something similar.

http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/9369/capturevx.png - a crude mock up, for eStryker. The highlight should be gone if you take unit that is not allowed in the theme force to don't distract those who don't intend to use theme force,

[thePlotDevice]

Huge fan of the site. Thanks a TON for all the work you put into it.

just wanted to mention two things:

The razorworm for skorne is missing

Is there anyway to add downloading the list to a pdf or something that would show damage grids? for some reason when I print from the site, the list does start until the middle of the page, which sometimes results in the list being printed on two pages when it doesn't need to be.

[Thunder_God]

I just tell it to print the list and the damage grid on two separate pages.

[kilvati]

And not only that, also:
Added Drake MacBain
Added Thrullg
Added taskmaster
Added Lord Carver, BMMD Esq. III
Added Thornfall Alliance
Added Skinwalkers
Added War Hog
Added Gun Boar
Added Woldguardian
Added Swamptroll
Added Skinner
Morghoul tiers
Thanks to Austin: For the donation!
Thanks to Deacis, Xas and Vinnie for the general help
Thanks to Travis: eSorscha's tier list grays out when you select Winter Guard Mortars or Field Guns; she should be able to take them as far as I can tell.
Thanks to Travis: pButcher's tier 4 doesn't allow the Marauder, and has the Vanguard as a requirement for some reason.
Thanks to Tonichaotic: The blood witches in cryx are displayed as having a base unit size of 3. They are a normal 6-person unit.
Thanks to Mocaw: 1. Retribution of Scyrah: Ravyn's tier list level 2 bonus should read: "free Eiryss, Mage Hunter Assassin, Nayl, or Narn." Narn is also a "Mage Hunter of Ios" solo, and is specifically listed as required for tier 3.
Thanks to Kelly: 1. Cryx: Epic Deneghra's Tier 2 doesn't trigger correctly. I add two units of Bane Knights, should get a free Machine Wraith. Because T2 doesn't trigger, T3 and T4 never kick in either.
Thanks to SnakeEye: The Harbinger Tier 4 benefit makes all heavies 1 point cheaper (including the Avatar). That's not working.
Thanks to CyrDraconis: Woldwatcher changed to 5 points. No other pointcost changes for Circle that I noticed.
Thanks to Carsten: - Cylena Raefyll & Nyss Hunters have an animosity to blighted models, i.e. to Bloodgorgers or Gerlak Slaughterborn, which is not yet covered in Forward Commander.
Thanks to thePlotDevice: The razorworm for skorne is missing
Thanks to Travis: Taryn di la Rovissi shouldn't be able to work for Khador.
Thanks to Stachelbaer: Epic Severius Tier List allows the Avatar of Menoth, which is not included in Forward Kommander.
Thanks to Batma: I wanted to write you that there is a small typo in one of the trollblood model names. The model in question is Stone Scribe Chronicler (Trollblood solo), however army creator has it listed as "Stone Scibe Chronicler" (missing a "r" in Scribe)

[kilvati]

Ok, I messed up Magnus, but it should be working better now.

[kilvati]

Little update, quick fixes for the last release:
Green highling for models in tiers
+1 FA for all Farrow stuff (thanks to relasine)
Magnus tier 2 can have all steelhead stuff (thanks to LaBambaMan)

[Helatus]

Small stat bug: Khador winterguard infantry

When small 4 point group cost is selected, it states "Leader and 6 grunts". I believe this should be "Leader and 5 grunts".

thanks,

Hel

P.S. Love this program!

[FerrusManus]

Another bug - Steelhead Riflemen doesn't count as Steelheads for pMagnus theme list Tier 2. Also Tier description states that you need at least 2 units of Steelhead Halberdiers, Steelhead Heavy Calvary or... Steelhead Heavy Calvary.

Also it show that you qualify for tier 2 even if you take just 1 SH Heavy Cavalry unit.

Also you used my idea for highlighting, sweet. Listening to feedback is one of the things that what makes your site great.

[CyrDraconis]

Little update, quick fixes for the last release:
Green highling for models in tiers
+1 FA for all Farrow stuff (thanks to relasine)
Magnus tier 2 can have all steelhead stuff (thanks to LaBambaMan)

Didn't thinka bout it at first, but the highlighting is really useful. Thanks!

[mosez]

found a bug with gorten's tier list:
when only having gorten in the list, its possible to add 3 bokurs, and the tier-symbol is still there (which shouldnt be, as only +1 FA for bokur for every unit). if i add the 2 highshield units first (to get to tier 2), i can add only 2 bokurs, then the text in the model-list gets changed to "null" and is not available for clicking anymore...

and btw: gudrun isnt a rhulic solo, he's just an ogrun. so he isnt allowed in a gorten tier list...


edit: just asked in the rules forums (http://privateerpressforums.com/showthread.php?31360-additional-beasts-with-rorsh-wrong-eye-as-mercenaries), the gunboar and warpig can be taken as "mercenaries" with rorsh... dont know if this easy to implement...?

[FerrusManus]

pCaine tier 1 makes all Arcane Tempest Gun Mage units 1 cheaper. Black 13 is also a Arcane Tempest Gun Mage unit, it also should become 1 cheaper, it currently doesn't.

[PG_Mootaz]

Black 13 is an "Arcane Tempest" unit and also a "Gun Mage" unit, but they are not Arcane Tempest Gun Mage" unit, that is a specific unit.
ForwardKommander does everything correctly.

[DarkLegacy]

Skarre, Queen of the Broken Coast (eSkarre)'s tier 2 bonus is broken. I cannot add a second Sea Witch UA to the units.

[Pseudog]

Thornfall Alliance has Minion Warjacks reading where should be Minion Warbeasts. Yeah, typo only but I thought I'd report that one in

And I don't know where I'd be without Forward Kommander, thank you for all the hard work you've done for us, the community! ^^

[pgmason]

Just started using Forward Kommander and I'm very impressed! Thank you.

[FerrusManus]

There's bug with Harbinger's tier 4, to qualify for it Harby has to have 3 heavy jacks without ranged weapons in her battlegroup, however in FK you qualify for it if you have 2 heavies in her battle group and an Avatar (who isn't in her battlegroup).

[lastspartacus]

This is a really awesome tool. I use it all the time. Just offering my gratitude.

[George Spiggott]

I've been playing around with Forward Kommander on a couple of phones (Samsung Jet and an Android Samsung I don't remember the name of) There's not much in it between using it and Ibodger (Android). I rescind my request for a Netbook friendly (1024x600) Forward Kommander and instead humbly request a more mobile (800x480) friendly front end.

Thanks.

[Archimedes the Dog]

I note that the Circe Stonekeeper UA and the Wilder aren't there, though the models are around and the PC are known. Not sure what your policy is on when you add things.

[Masanori]

Harbinger's tier 4 also seems to have the problem where light jacks are also 1 point cheaper. The one point cheap option should only be for heavy warjacks that do not have a ranged option. Which would be the templar, castigator, crusader, avatar n the guardian. Thanx for the army builder anyway!

p.s. just found another thing, Prime Feora tier list 2, says 2 or more Templeflameguard Units, but the indicator on the forcekommander seems to allow tier 2 with any flameguard unit..;p

[hooksy67]

Just wondering when the tier lists will be up for skorne and trolls?

[CyrDraconis]

Minor correction that I just now spotted - Cygnar, Captain Haley's theme list should not allow Hammersmiths.

[shags_jc]

Quick note. I did an ECaine list with the tiers (2 * ATGM etc). When I removed the second ATGM unit it still allowed the tiers that required it.

[WhiteDwarf1000]

Any idea of when the next update will be and if so will it include the Blindwater Congregation Pact?

[King Markov]

also need to add the new legion stuff from stinger on

[kilvati]

Hi all,

I am again tired a lot lately and sitting behind the computer figuring out hitpoints and tiers isn't at my mind at those moments, I finaly got an update in.
Since I do not really have the time at the moment and I lost track on what spoilers I did miss, I would like to ask you guys to send them in. I will do the trolls when I have the book in my hands.
What I need is the name, the hitpoints, the FA and special list building restrictions.
If you are missing anything please let me know. I am slacking on some hard to do stuff until I have some time to dive into code.

Thanks for waiting!

What I have done:
Added Skorne stuff
Added: new character jacks
Thanks to Gaarew, Janos and Sagojo: Magnus Tier 2 lists SH Heavy Cav twice, rather than them and the Riflemen.
Thanks to Andrey: I'm playing Khador and I found that when you try to print the roster with damage grids for Karchev 'The Terrible' - there are missing pictures with the 'Body' system. Could it be fixed somehow?
Thanks to Elly: Widowmakers are not in Prime Irusk's Theme List
Thanks to Moonova: You have Thrullg down as FA: C it is FA:2 according to NQ#31.
Thanks to Dan: pNemo's tier list is set up way too broad. He shouldn't be able to take either Precursors or Sword Knights and still get the tier bonus.
Thanks to Nathan and John: Warwitch Deneghra's 2nd tier is not counting Warwitch Sirens.
Thanks to Nathan and Janos: The titles for Krueger are backwards. The first Krueger is the Stormwrath, while his epic form is the Stormlord. His warbeast points are the same, so it doesn't matter in that sense, but it does take extra diligence for bringing the list to a tournament.
Thanks to Drew: Viktor Pendrake is a Cygnar Ally model and should be available to Highborn Covenant armies.
Thanks to Kelly: Captain Allister Caine T2 requires two Arcane Tempest Gun Mage units to get the tier bonus. It's currently triggering the tier and bonus with just one.
Thanks to Arian: taking macbain under highborn causes duplicates of macbain and jacks to appear
Thanks to Nick: Can we get this fixed please. Steelhead Riflemen should be included in offering the T2 bonus. Thanks.
Thanks to Frédéric: The Hammersmith have no range attack and is not in the tier of Haley.
Thanks to Frédéric: Thorn is a light warjack and do not count for tier 4 for Haley

[maxxev]

Sorry if this has been mentioned, just noticed that the Avalancher doesn't seem able to be marshalled by the Hammerfall with UA.

[Thunder_God]

Just saw it with eButcher, I'm sure it happens elsewhere as well:
Had 5 pts left over, already were deep inside the theme. Wanted to add a last Doomreaver unit, but because it only transforms to "5 pts" once you add it to the list, and is listed as 6 pts at the side, I could not add it.

It's not everywhere though, cause Reznik's Reckoners update on the model list.

[Seeth]

Looking for help with Printing. I love FK, but I can't print my damage grids or lists. I hit print and then ...nothing. *Sometimes* just damage grids will print when I choose that, but more often than not it doesn't print at all, or, when it does, they're all wonky. I've used my wife's laptop (XP), my laptop (Vista) and my daughter's laptop (Windows 7) with no luck. I've been having this problem for several months. Anyone have any suggestions?
