    3 [http://warfoundry.co.uk WarFoundry] is the cross-platform, multi-system, open-source army building application from IBBoard. The idea started in 2006 and by the end of 2008 this area was eventually set up to allow contributions from other people and to make the application public. Please note that because of legal threats over a trademark, WarFoundry's ability to help build armies makes it an "army building application" and not an "army builder". The difference may seem trivial, but trademark law and lawyers disagree and so we must not use the latter term as a description of WarFoundry's capabilities.

    3838 * '''Graphics/UI''' - a lot of open source applications can be functionally great but have a poor user interface. The split between a back-end API library and front-end UIs makes creating new interfaces easier, but any graphical input would be appreciated.
    3939 * '''Translation''' - WarFoundry (currently just the UI) is designed to [wiki:Development/Translations be translatable], so please help translate it to your local language

     42Please note that, because of threats of legal action over a trademark, WarFoundry's ability to help users create army rosters makes it an "army creator". The name "Army Builder" is a US registered trademark of Lone Wolf Development, who also claim coverage of any phrase using a combination of derivatives of those two words or their base words in relation to army list creation software.
