Black Sheep,

Many thanks for the sheets. ...But ( I don't want to sound a whinge, given the hard work you've done), but there are a few dice roll modifiers scattered around the rules. It would be good if they could be collected onto a reference sheet, not least as a reminder that a dice roll modifier is needed on a particular occasion.

Don't mention it.

@Drusty

Are you sure? They seem to be there on the little character sections. Manoeuvre Easy 3+D3 and things like that. Will need to have another look. The beauty of such pdf's is that they can be easily modified if an error or omission is spotted, unlike hard copies in books

There are be some parts of the rules that aren't on the sheet/s but the frequently used bits are there and means you can leave the main book to one side for 90% of the game.
A very very useful addition to the game!

May this Samhain cleanse your heart, your soul, and your mind!

Just had a look through - looking forward to getting my book. A typo under the Preacher box "Vampire's" should be just Vampire.

Other than that - the sheet makes little sense to me without the rules :D

Thanks Grant. Well spotted. I have made the correction.

Thanks Drusty. I will consider your suggestion for the need to add additional dice roll modifier information to the reference sheets.

Modifiers -dice roll or otherwise. Probably the most consulted will be:
-Moving into/out of difficult terrain
-Avoid harm when shot at and in fisticuffs
-Reload dice roll after failed first attempt
-Extra Defend dice for defending cover
-Rounds 2 and 3 of Outnumbered fisticuffs
-scarpering and getting into Fisticuffs when a figure still hasn't regained Self Control
-unseating riders who've been injured by shot or in Fisticuffs

Perhaps less used would be:
-Surprise attack Fisticuffs
-On Guard in Fisticuffs
-Cavalry dis/mounting
-Mods for getting over obstructions

Thanks again Drusty. I think a 'modifiers at a glance' table would indeed be useful. I will design one shortly after next weekend's Smoggycon with a view to adding it as a free download.

Ok! Further to Drusty's suggestions, the addition of these is going to take up more space. So what you could do is combine the entries for the Stickler and Blinder Captain. They are basically the same. So are the Witchfinder Musketeer and Pikeman the same as the Blinder equivalents. So you could Combine these into a single entry each and call them Witchfinder/Blinder Pikeman and Ditto Musketeer. Those three combined would reduce the document enough that the addition of the new modifiers table would keep it within 4 pages.
I'm sorry for this suggestion, but it is just an observation that would allow you to keep the document within its current limits.

Thats a good Idea Big Al.
It would also mean that all of the troop stats would fit on two sides which would be an advantage.

May this Samhain cleanse your heart, your soul, and your mind!
