Title: Academy spell book builder and card list
Post by: iNano78 on February 19, 2016, 05:28:14 AM
Since the official spell book builder is either being updated at a snail's pace or is frozen in time, someone has taken it upon himself to write an XML spell book builder for Academy. So far there is at least a list of all the spells in Academy with school and mana and spell point costs (but no card text so far) - which hadn't been officially published yet to my knowledge (outside spoiler videos). Check out his development log here:

And for those interested in a mana/life tracker who don't have a portable device that's compatible with the official (and outdated) one, check this out.  It should work in any web browser:

(that's an old version; the new one has +5/-5 buttons, a V'tar tracker, and various other features and improvements)

If there are any bugs or you have requests, please report them on BoardGameGeek here (https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/1537648/kelsam-mage-wars-tracker-app).

Yes!

I just use academy cards for arena. Also I prefer Octgn over the online spellbook boulder. But I am so incredibly waiting for an update of the Original app. No battleground cards yet and no academy cards. Without further optimization it can't be that hard to get someone paid with beer to update the card database. Since I guess the online sbb uses the same one as the app I join your request iNano78!

For mana and lifetracking there are some more apps. One is prepared to get a codex as will. This linked one looks smooth. Others are more clunky but with more function.
