Build a list from your collection
Tell Claude which models you own, through the Canterbury Cogitator connector, and it starts from what real players have won with.
list_closest
Closest winning lists
Real tournament lists that won and beat their pilots' ratings, cheapest to reach from your models first, then fitted to what you own with at most two swaps.
“Here are my Space Wolves — what winning list is closest to what I own?”
list_detachments
Which detachment
Ranks every detachment pairing by the best list your collection makes in it, with the suggested pairing's rules, enhancements and stratagems.
“Which detachment suits my collection?”
list_build
Build and grow the list
Builds inside the pairing you pick: what to buy to reach 2,000, which squads to reinforce or trim, and the next kits worth buying.
“Build it in Saga of the Beastslayer, and what should I buy next?”
unit_roles
What each unit does
Every datasheet worked out from its rules: damage per 100 points into hordes, marines, terminators and vehicles, how hard it is to kill, and objective control.
“Which of my units is the most efficient anti-tank?”
armies coveredAdeptus Custodes · Aeldari · Blood Angels · Chaos Daemons · Chaos Knights · Chaos Space Marines · Genestealer Cult · Grey Knights · Orks · Space Wolves · Thousand Sons
Give your models one line per unit (“10 Grey Hunters”, “1 Logan Grimnar”); everyday names and small typos are fine. Once pilot skill is allowed for, the gap between good lists is a few points of win rate — the pilot still matters most. Ask Jon Clarke for access to the connector.
