War Council reviews
4.5 out of 5, based on 405 reviews.
What people like
- It is completely free to use.
- Building army lists is super easy here.
- Great resource for checking unit rules.
What they complain about
- Updates are slow and missing new units.
- Unit stats and costs are often wrong.
- You cannot add commanders to your armies.
- App crashes when trying to print lists.
Great app. Needs updated with newest units
Fantastic app. Very helpful. Just needs newest units added
Great idea, terrible realization
There are many unbelivable mistakes, that makes me ask the queston how can you screw up something so basic. (For example nymeria sand gives 11 bonus movement instead of 1). Better use Asoiaf stats instead of this joke of an app.
Casi perfecto
Solo le falta que esté en español. Es fluida y siempre está actualizada con las últimas reglas. Hecho en falta que las listas se pudiesen ver en distintos dispositivos, y que los datos solo son local
Not updated
It was a great app, very useful and concenient. But it didnt follow patches for 1 or 2 years, it's not updated, sadly.
No spanish
Buena App para el juego, pero sin soporte en español
Essential Free App
Great app that’s completely free. Makes building armies super easy. Excellent for referring to unit rules. Game changer of an app compared to other systems.
Needs update
Costs have changed and there are new units not included on the app.
Sin traducir
La aplicación es genial pero es una pena que no esté en español para poder disfrutarla al 100%. Gracias
Good but could be better.
Good but could be better. No button to give direct feedback on app. No ability to swiping on phone to go back instead of hitting the back button or when deleting specific armies or to export from the army itself by holding down like other apps. Effectively doesn’t utilize the full feature of the phone which is simple to do. No windows version to print tactic cards since the game changes constantly (exporting from phone or printing from phone is a hassle). No way print the tactic cards (including commander cards), which you need the physical version of, or unit cards since the game changes constantly. Needs “what’s new” within the app. The FAQ needs to be divided better (with different factions having their own FAQ along with the game).
NEEDS UPDATE!!!
No drowned men, but GC is already in? Update! PLEASE!
Great App
Just got into the game. I’m a House Bolton guy. The app does need an update as I can’t add any neutral units or hero’s to my force.
Update
Please update the units cost have changed in the past 3 months
App oder Karten
Tolle App. Allerdings ist es verwirrend, dass viele Karten in App komplett anders sind als die physischen Karten (nach 2021). Welches sind denn nun die aktuellen? (bzw. neueren).
Takes an age
It would be much higher but there is one fundamental issue, it takes an age for any new sets to be added, where is the Brotherhood without banners starter and expansions? Still waiting, these updates should be released on the same day as the sets are released.
Great but never updated
One of the simplest and easiest to use list building apps for a tabletop wargame game. The ability to keep track of what you own and to limit lists to those items you do own are great. The only downfall is the app is rarely updated and you’ll spend months with the app missing new units boxes that you’ve bought since the last update
I love it, use it everyday!
I’m addicted to the song game but this app makes it worse. Easy to use app to create army lists and day dream about the next game while away from the table top. Only wish you could add more than 99 point for max army size. My friend group and I play very large games and wish this was a feature.
Unusable until updated
New rules are out and paper unit cards are obsolete.
Missing heroes?
App is great, seems to function as intended. However, the Hand of the King set is missing Ramsay Snow which is integral to strategies. Edit: please add Winterfell Guards
Needs Updates.
Update the app. No Martell, no Varamyr, Targ 3… tough that the “official app” doesn’t support units well into it their release…
Can’t create armies since Update
This app has been amazing until the new update made it so I can’t create any armies on it. I was excited to create a Greyjoy army and now I can’t do it.
Amazing resource
A great resource from CMON. Not all companies would be generous enough to publish all their rules and stats freely. The information is awesome for those wanting to research their opposition’s strengths and weaknesses. A must have for ASOIAF players.
Ooooops
This is a great app, BUT, it seems to have developed a glitch. I used to be able to print my lists, and now I can’t. Nor can I save my pdf formatted lists. What’s going on? 🥴😖. PS, I am using an iPhone 6S plus.
Lost in Translation
Nice app, one of the best "official" army builders, but - there is always a but Translations (German) are not complete. In S03 the translations of the NCUs abilities/rules are not updated. This seems to be related to the way the trasnslator determines what needs to be updated. If the translator would use the "Change Log" instead the Apps internal data structure for the Englishversion, this would not happen. It would be nice to be able to search for a certain card or cards. Full text search and feature search like cost=6 would be nice. It would be nice to be able to add units using less taps in the army builder section. Right now you tap add, scroll to the unit, tap extend, tap add card. Allow adding card without extending it and returning only to the army overview when tapping back. You could tap an army together in no time.
No deja crear listas en algunos IPhone
Desde las ultimas actualizaciones en algunos iPhone ya no deja crear listas pese a que en la APP pone que es compatible, por favor soluciónenlo lo antes posible, ni desinstalando ni reiniciando funciona
Good App - just needs to be kept up to date
The app is good and pretty much integral to playing the game, however the current version is missing some of the newer releases meaning that other 3rd party offerings for list building need to be used
Love this App!!
Dude everything is there for you to create!! I only wish they included units or expansions we know are about to drop. Other than that, I love going on here and creating my armies. It would be cool if they created a function where you can unite factions. But it still super dope!!
Needs an update
Cannot add commanders to the army list. Also needs a defined area for attachments per units.
En francés antes que en castellano?????
Me parece sorprendente que esté en francés antes que en castellano que es el cuarto idioma del mundo hablado por 500 millones frente a los 80 millones de habla de francés… una pena… No podrían dar la opción de castellano o español en la aplicación? En tal caso sería de 10!
Update broken, can’t creat armies
I like the app but the latest update doesn’t work. The “create” button is now greyed out.
Printing
On my IPhone 8 the app works great but every time I try and print my list the app crashes!! Please fix! Other then that keep up the good work!
Started off rocky but now worth
Just like the title says, the app started off rocky and that’s where a lot of the 1-2 stars came from. Now while it’s not perfect, it’s pretty solid for what it does and offers and currently keep being updated so even better.
Can’t add commander and does not scale well
Not intuitive in how to add a commander and no directions on how to use. Still haven’t figured out how to add a commander. Finally figured out that I had to reduce the text scale size to be able to expose the + and - keys to add figures to my collection. Needs instructions.
Needs Errors Fixed but Awesome Game
There are some errors with cards in the app. Some of the commander cards show the abilities they give to a specific unit instead of the abilities they provide as a commander. Jaime Lannister and the mountain both have this issue.
Bugged
Some of the attachments and commanders are not are not appearing in the My Armies section . Even with ALL Units on.
Good start... needs better export
Right now, you can only export a code that other people can use to import to their device… Clunky. Please add a feature to export Rich text lists!
War Council
I have been using this app since January of 2019. The app works great on my iPad, and I must say I have had no problems whatsoever. The app updates for the new units have been released at the time or even before I was able to buy them at my local hobby store. I would strongly recommend this app.
Not usable in current form
Tried to use it for the first time to build a 40pt Lannister army. On my Pixel2 phone, the formatting is so bad, I can’t click on the +1 to add a SvL starter set to my collection. Switched to my iPad and the formatting is fine. Added all my units to my collection. Tried to choose The Mountain as my commander and see that only two Lannister units are available to choose as Commanders even though I have a starter set added in my collection. Nice concept, but did anyone play test this thing at all? How could that have been missed. Love the game, but this app is useless.
Worth its weight in gold.
I love this app. It makes a huge difference in army building. Much easier to try different builds using this. The last update seems to have left out the dragon mechanics for the Targaryens, but I’m sure this just needs a bug fix.
First!
Nicely done, easy to use, but for an unknown reason it’s missing some unit in the “build you army”. Bronn, Brienne, Maege Mormont, Greatjon Umber... Thanks and keep it going!
Helpful Ap - bugs are fixed
1. Easy to load armies. Interface is intuitive. 2. Really good resource for unit stats.
Need to update in timely fashion
Good interface overall but needs to be updated with the latest products available on the market, that feels like a ball that has been dropped very badly.
Good, but....
Would be perfect with different languages. Please make this happen!
Needs Improvements
Good first release, but there are some annoying usability issues. You can’t change the point value of your army. You can tap the number and type a new one, but then you can’t save the new value. Also, you can’t delete armies. These were the most glaring issues I found. Hopefully they can be fixed soon in an update. Otherwise, I like the app and definitely find it useful.
Brilliant
Great way to manage collection. A fun tool for creating new armies and keeping them in one place while being able to try out new combos and keep them all in one place.
Wont display proper units
Wont display commander units
Mostly Good
But needs an update. Still can’t change point values, and it’s missing all the latest units. I’m concerned that they’ll have trouble keeping up once the flood of new Free Folk and Night’s Watch units are released. Hard to argue with free, but I’d pay money to have something fully functional and updated.
