BSData wh40k-10e Repository Sees Active Commits Updating BattleScribe Files
BSData's wh40k-10e GitHub repo recorded fresh commits last week, shows "3,008 Commits" and an updated releases page, and hosts dozens of .cat faction files used by BattleScribe and roster builders.

The BSData-hosted wh40k-10e repository recorded fresh activity over the week ending February 22, 2026, with the project page showing an updated releases area and a fragmentary UI line reading "Latest commit History3,008 Commits 3,008 Commits." The repository lists dozens of .cat data files for Warhammer 40,000 10th Edition - examples in the visible file tree include Chaos - Chaos Space Marines.cat, Chaos - Death Guard.cat, Chaos - Emperor's Children.cat, Aeldari - Craftworlds.cat, Aeldari - Drukhari.cat, Genestealer Cults.cat, Imperium - Adepta Sororitas.cat, Imperium - Adeptus Mechanicus.cat, and Imperium - Adeptus Titanicus.cat - and the listing truncates with ellipses, indicating a substantially larger file set.
The GitHub project presents itself under the heading "Warhammer 40,000 10th Edition" and exposes repository metadata labels such as "Latest release," "Commits (since latest release)," "Open bugs," "Contributors," and "Commit activity the past year." The project description explicitly states, "BSData organisation created this project. It's a GitHub repository of datafiles," and adds, "Maintained by community, in no way endorsed by BattleScribe or any other company/publisher. If you want to develop - cool! We need you! Take a look at our homepage." UI headings visible in the snippet include "Latest commit," "## History," and "## Repository files navigation."
Distribution and hosting show conflicting user-facing signals in the source material. The repository page declares, "Yeah! We have it hosted on AppSpot. Take a look: BattleScribe Data on Appspot," while a pinned Reddit PSA warns, "The normal Appspot Data Server that Battlescribe uses to pick up 40k data is down: This system is also managed by the Battlescribe Dev who has long since abandoned Battlescribe, so it's unknown if this will be fixed but it's unlikely." Those two statements coexist in the available text and imply different paths for users attempting to pull 10th Edition files into BattleScribe.
Practical instructions are present in the excerpts. Spikeybits advises: "Want to get started with your 10th Edition 40k army? Here’s how: simply update your data within the app. Look for the 10th Edition data files, which should be listed just above the 9th Edition in the data section. Once you’ve got the latest files, you can start building your lists with all the updated rules and point values." The Reddit PSA directs PC and Android users to use the BSData Gallery system and tells iOS users they "will need to follow the instructions here to load the 40k Data File manually," and it names NewRecruit and the official 40k App (Warhammer+) as workable alternatives.
Community and app-state concerns are explicit in the supplied text. Spikeybits runs the subheading "BattleScribe’s Future: Uncertain but Hopeful" and warns that "the app’s developer might be AWOL" and that "we will need to rely on a functionality currently broken in battlescribe on a fairly fundamental level." The same excerpt urges, "If you have supporter passes, do not renew them. Tell your friends to do the same." At the same time Spikeybits records a bright spot: "But just when things looked bleak, a spark of good news emerged. The latest data files were released, and to everyone’s surprise, they actually work with the app!"
The repository-level activity and the AppSpot availability together will determine whether list-building tools remain usable for 10th Edition. The GitHub UI and file tree show active commits and a wide roster of faction .cat files, but the AppSpot server status and the reported "broken" BattleScribe functionality are the gating factors for long-term usability.
