Being an occasional player, I forget all sorts of stuff. And I note an absence of the old Space Marine Play Sheet, the A4ish-sized card with sequence of play, formation coherency, barrage table, orders, CC and morale summary and various terrain tables.

Is there one made for NetEpic, or is anyone doing one?  If not i'll try and make myself useful for a change.

Is a great idea.  Not sure if it's been done before, but if you're offering I'm happy to QA it for you :)

I guess that's Quality Assurance.  That'll be needed. :)

Don't hold you're breath, even this little job might take me awhile- looking up rules, and resolving my hate relationship with word processors. I'm rubbish at layout anyway; but time to learn I suppose! :(  :D

I'll need an un-pdf-ed version of the Core Rules, as I'll probably copy a fair bit from it- particularly the terrain table. Hint-hint!!

I was thinking of 3  double-sided sheets:

1 for beginners (simple stuff like unit coherency, maybe),
1 for more advanced people(just reminders, and tables mostly. definately flyer rules),
1 for pre-game set-up (terrain setup, VP level, objectives etc).

Do you think summaries of special rules for each army would be handy? (of course I don't play that many armies myself).  maybe both army specific and notes regards unusual weapons, so Eldar would include vibro-cannon/distortion, the doom-weaver(or whatever they're called now) weapon, warlock rules etc.

'course I really should ask these things when Primarch's likely to be around.

Good ideas, loofnick. I really like the idea of army summary sheets. This would be particularly helpful for playing against armies you're not familiar with.

Hi!

I would agree that summaries are good ideas. They were around in the original SM2, its good to return them. Touch base with WMN to see if he has copies of the non-PDF versions.

Hmm.. good point.  I suppose this means I'll have to have a go.. once I've finished my Full Thrust summarising (you almost can't play it without one- so many optional rules and updates!:glare: )

Thanks for that- I forget who's doing stuff (if I ever knew).  Good to have you back; hope the rest of your move goes well.
