How to Read SpaceBattles Stories Offline

WP Downloader turns a SpaceBattles story into an EPUB or PDF that you can keep on your phone, tablet, e-reader, or computer. The tool is free to use in your browser, with nothing to install.

Download the SpaceBattles story

SpaceBattles stories are published as forum threads. WP Downloader collects the threadmarked chapters from a story thread and combines them into one book.

Copy the URL of the story thread. It should look similar to this:

https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/some-story-name.123456/

Then follow these steps:

1. Open the SpaceBattles downloader.
2. Paste the story thread link into the box.
3. Wait while WP Downloader detects the site and collects the threadmarked chapters.
4. Choose EPUB, or sign in with a free Discord account to choose PDF.
5. Choose whether to include the story’s images.
6. Download the finished book to your device.

You do not need a SpaceBattles account. For this site, WP Downloader downloads the whole story rather than individual chapters or lists.

EPUB is free for everyone and works with compatible reading apps and e-readers. PDF requires a free Discord sign-in and uses a fixed-page layout.

WP Downloader does not create MOBI, AZW3, or TXT files. It also cannot update an EPUB that you have already downloaded. If the author adds more chapters, download the story again to get a new copy.

For more detail, see how to download a SpaceBattles story.

Read offline on a phone

Download the EPUB to your phone and open it in an app that supports EPUB files. If your phone asks which app to use, select your preferred reading app.

Keep the downloaded file on your phone so you can open it without returning to the SpaceBattles thread or connecting to the internet. If you downloaded a PDF, open it in an app that supports PDF files.

Read offline on a tablet

The steps are similar on a tablet:

1. Download the story as EPUB or PDF.
2. Find it in your browser’s downloads or saved files.
3. Open it in a compatible reading app.
4. Keep the file on the tablet for offline reading.

Choose EPUB for an ebook format or PDF for a fixed-page document.

Read offline on an e-reader

Download the story as EPUB, then transfer the file using a method supported by your e-reader.

Kindle users can follow the guide to send SpaceBattles stories to Kindle. WP Downloader does not create MOBI or AZW3 files, so start with the EPUB download.

Kobo readers can also use the EPUB version. See how to read SpaceBattles stories on Kobo for instructions.

Once the file appears in your e-reader’s library, open it like any other ebook. It will remain available offline while it is stored on the device.

Read offline on a computer

Download the story to your computer and open it in software that supports the file format. Use an EPUB-compatible reading app for EPUB or a PDF-compatible app for PDF.

Keep the file somewhere you can find it again. You can also download it on your computer first and transfer it to another device later.

Get newly posted chapters

Your downloaded book contains the threadmarked chapters that were available when you created it. The file does not update when the SpaceBattles thread changes.

After new chapters are posted and threadmarked, paste the story link into WP Downloader again. The new download will contain the chapters available at that time.
