Overview

StrataGen provides a tool for creating reasonably nice look data cards for Warhammer 40k. The cards may be saved image files and printed however you see fit.

Single Card

StrataGen allows the creation of a single data card by simply filling in the Card Details form and pressing the Create button.

Batch Mode

StrataGen can also create a set of cards from a specially formatted text file. This text file contains a list of tab (*.tsv) or comma (*.csv) separated fields describing the cards to be created. StrataGen expects each line in file to begin with a field describing the card type to create. The card type field must be one of the following:

• STRATAGEM
• PSYCHIC POWER
• PRAYER
• TACTICAL OBJECT

The fields following the card type are dependent on the type of card specified as shown below:

Card Type	Card Style	Field 2	Field 3	Field 4	Field 5	Field 6
STRATAGEM	CLASSIC or 9TH	Command points (number)	Stratagem name	Card header	Stratagem fluff description	Stratagem rule text
PSYCHIC POWER	CLASSIC or 9TH	Warp charge (number)	Power name	Card header	Power fluff description	Power rule text
TACTICAL OBJECTIVE	CLASSIC or 9TH	Id number (number)	Objective name	Card header	Objective fluff description	Objective rule text
PRAYER	CLASSIC or 9TH	Prayer name	Card header	Prayer fluff description	Prayer rule text	--Empty--

It is recommended to use tab-separated fields to permit the fluff and rule text to contain commas.
