Warhammer 40,000 11th-Edition App Overhaul: New Features and Online Field Manual
6/18/2026, 1:12:10 PM
Unified 11th-Edition Warhammer 40,000 App
Games Workshop has launched an updated Warhammer 40,000 mobile application to support the 11th edition. The app incorporates the War Journal, which lets players generate missions, assign terrain, and track victory points; opponent-list synchronization that shares army lists, datasheets, rules, and stratagems between devices; and direct integration with Best Coast Pairings (BCP) for roster and score submission. The Battle Forge army builder now includes all 11th-edition detachments, Force Dispositions, and revised unit points, reflecting the updated points from the Munitorum Field Manual. The Munitorum Field Manual has moved from a replaceable PDF to an online resource on the Warhammer Community site, and the app now offers sections in French, German, Italian, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, with core rules and Combat Patrols currently translated. The app is available for download on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, and existing users can update it directly.
Key Features Overview
The War Journal streamlines mission creation and point tracking, and is intended to keep players’ attention on the tabletop by handling these tasks within the app. Opponent synchronization eliminates manual cross-checking of army data, giving both players identical information during a game. Integration with Best Coast Pairings allows automatic roster uploads and score reporting to tournament organizers. Language support now covers seven languages, and the online Munitorum Field Manual provides unit costs, upgrade options, and the new “support” keyword, replacing the previous PDF format.
Official Statements & Responses
Games Workshop’s communications, as quoted in the Warhammer Community article, describe the app as “fully updated with the new detachments and Force Dispositions” and state that “the Munitorum Field Manual now includes unit and upgrade costs, breakdowns of which squads can be joined by leaders and the characters with the new ‘support’ keyword.” The company further notes that “the app is integrated with Games Workshop’s ongoing event pairing partners at Best Coast Pairings,” facilitating tournament reporting.
Conflicting Reports & Gaps
Both source articles note that datasheets for the 11th edition have not yet been fully updated. The Bell of Lost Souls piece expects the missing datasheets to arrive “this weekend or early next week after the official launch,” while the Warhammer Community article provides no timeline. Translation coverage is limited to core rules and Combat Patrols, leaving other codex sections untranslated.
What’s Next
Future updates are expected to deliver complete datasheet revisions for all factions, extend language translations beyond the current seven, and further synchronize the Munitorum Field Manual with app releases. Ongoing integration with Best Coast Pairings will add additional tournament features as the 11th edition ecosystem evolves.
