The good news? Not all hope is lost, as hobbyists and coders alike are banding together to make something new… A New Hope For Army BuildingĪ group of developers is banding together to make a new app that can read BS data. While we’ve talked about that app for some time, if BS goes down, it’s basically pen and paper other than the 40k app. Currently, the only other real option is using the GW app. This really sucks because so many things use BattleScribe, such as Best Coast for tournaments, etc. While the data is still being updated, the app itself is falling off. There has already been a Reddit thread where they say the app is not working on Mac OS already (this was before it was even taken down, so let’s hope it will work at least for a little while longer). This means as phones continue to update, there’s a chance that the Battlescribe app just stops working altogether on your platform (or gets taken off altogether).Īccording to the mods of r/battlescribe, no one has even heard from the developer in over a year. Well, the app isn’t and hasn’t been updated in quite some time, but the data has been. But… the developer who is actually working on the app seems to have been AFK for a long time, more than a year at this point. BattleScribe Abandoned by its Developerīefore you get too worried (well other than the fact you can’t download it anymore which is obviously big), the community of people doing the data for games like Warhammer 40k, etc are still around. However, the App itself has gone too long without an update from its creator to be included in the Apple store.Īs we said, this is pretty sad news, but if you have the app, please do not delete it! Let’s just hope a new update to your phone doesn’t somehow make it incompatible… If you have the app all will work as normal, the backend data repositories are still there and updated. The time has come, if you have an iOS/iPadOS device, whatever you do DO NOT delete the BS app from your device it has officially been removed from the App Store. This statement comes from Reddit by way of the Battlescribe Discord: Battlescribe Abandoned & Removed From the iOS App Store Let’s take a look at the new announcement, as well as how Battlescribe was abandoned by itsdeveloper. This is sad news, as it’s basically used by all Warhammer 40k players. If you already have the app, do not delete it! As the repositories are still there and updated, but if you delete the app, you won’t be able to get it again! We talked about how the Battlescribe developers had basically abandoned the project, but now it’s been so long since the last update Apple has deemed it abandonware, which means it is being removed. Sorry hobbyists, Battlescribe has been removed from the iOS app store and has officially been abandoned. With the Warhammer 40k app struggling, trouble is brewing again for Battlescribe as it may be abandoned.
