What is a CATZ file?

CATZ files mostly belong to BattleScribe. CATZ files are specialized data archives used for managing Warhammer 40k army rosters. They use the ZIP file structure to compress game data and are produced by BattleScribe.
  • Internal Format: ZIP archive
  • Main Content: Warhammer 40k unit and roster information
  • Usage: These files are designed to be read by BattleScribe and similar tools to display detailed army lists and game statistics
  • Although the files are optimized for BattleScribe, you can rename a CATZ file to .ZIP and open it with any standard archive manager to view its contents.
