Great way to look at the units that are out there, but the user interface when it comes to searching and filtering is not. There are a lot of ways to searching and filtering can be improved. I'd like to see a search option to filter out customs versus official units, I can't get it to filter by general, and to name abilities "powers" makes it confusing when trying to search for abilities like flying or disengagement.

It's a very handy app for army building, and I'm glad to see C3G included. I do wish the app had a way to filter out different formats, though. It would be very good if you could toggle on/off Classic vs VC vs C3G vs HoSS. I also have not been able to successfully utilize the search feature. None of the filters have worked for me. With Heroscape officially returning, I hope that this will be updated.

I have to agree with Zachary and Malone. There are definitely some improvements needed to the search bar, and filtering out custom units would be handy for tournament use. This app has potential, but it isn't quite there yet.
