Try Quartermaster.

Takes a little getting used to, but I really like it.

in quarter master you have to build your files correct? in battlescribe you download files like you do in army builder, a lot less work

Yeah I have been using battlescribe as well, and I really like it. I still prefer army builder because some of the hover info is a little better and the army lists can be a little hard to read but overall I really like it.

I love Battlescribe. The data files aren't perfect, but a little error is expected.

I've played around with Quartermaster and the 40k files and it's pretty decent. One of the things I like is how easy it is to create templates based off of others, so adding something from FW is relatively simple. I built a Red Scorpions template using the base SM one. Piece of cake. While I still prefer AB, I'll probably be using Quartermaster extensively for my Necrons after the new Codex drops this weekend, because I have no chance of hacking the AB data files and it will be a month or more before others get around to it, but updating the Quartermaster template I can handle.

Battlescribe's Dropbox integration is great. It shares your lists between all your devices. It means I can make my roster on my PC, tinker with it on my phone and they have it on my tablet when I go to play. Really liking it.

I have been a fan of Quartermaster and have used it for some time. I find it great for messing around with list creation. However, it doesn't have the validation tools that I like on Army Builder (pc and Mac only right now). So I will usually build multiple lists on quartermaster, then build it and print it out on Army Builder.

Cheers,
