Squad builder for the X-Wing Miniatures game by Fantasy Flight Games.

Yet Another Squad Builder 2.5

What?

This is a squad builder for the Second Edition of the X-Wing Miniatures game by Atomic Mass Games (formerly owned by Fantasy Flight Games), completely in HTML and JavaScript. No backend is necessary. It can theoretically be dropped into any existing site, but since it uses a lot of styling from Twitter Bootstrap it may require some CSS trickery if you're using some other incompatible framework (e.g. Foundation).

Isn't there already an Official Squadbuilder out?

Yes, but it is no longer supported by FFG/AMG

So...?

MAGIC

What happened to Geordanr?

He 'retired'. I took over.

When will this be done?

Whenever X-Wing as a game is dead. Our hearts don't count.

Building

1. Install Node.js to get npm.
2. sudo npm install -g grunt-cli to install the global Grunt CLI.
3. npm install to install the dependencies listed in package.json.
4. grunt to build everything into the app directory. The builder is at app/index.html.
