Game companies seem to be really jumpy about any piece of data from the rule books, so they probably dislike you having preset stats instead of having players enter it themselves.
Would be worth checking what exactly apps for Warhammer etc get away with: If they survive against Games Workshop's legal department, that's IMHO a reasonable argument for what you can do at least.
From a community sentiment/personal relationship/... perspective, can't tell for the specific case. I'm a bit surprised a one-man show isn't willing to at least talk, but who knows how the initial communication went and was perceived.
- pixelgeek 5y agoThere are fan made files for apps like Battlescribe and Army Builder for all of the GW games. The people that make the apps don't distribute the files but Games Workshop has never stopped the distribution of the files. Mongoose Publishing, which made the original A Call to Arms games has long allowed pages like Burger's Ship Viewer http://ibisfightclub.ml http://ibisfightclub.ml which not only does the same sort of dice rolling but also includes much more data about the game and the vessels in it. And to be clear, I haven't posted any of the stats for any of the ships in the A Call to Arms Star Fleet game. I have details of the weapons but you still need to refer to the stats in the published books to know how many dice those weapons have on a particular ship.
