MSE - Easy Army Card Creator (V2.5) (New Glyph Cards)
Issue tracking and source code available on GitHub.
I found this program called Magic Set Editor a while ago. As its name implies, it was originally designed for creating Magic: The Gathering cards. However, it has a very nice scripting system that enables the creation of other templates. I figured I'd try to make a Heroscape template for it, as the Magic cards it turns out are very authentic-looking. This is the result.
