For the curious, the 2 page character sheets and 3 pages of play aids from our Gencon crawl are here (Google docs).
I have modified them somewhat since the game, mainly putting more complete stats for common weapons and armor onto the equipment sheet, and adding a henchmen table (in the game I used a number of pre-gens from the Meatshields utility).
Some of the notes may be a little cryptic, but people generally figured stuff out, asking along the way.
Yes, the d6 pips and encumbrance system are a blatant hommage. Probably by the time I release Assayers' Guild Characters I'll have figured out an alternate display system.

Thanks for running that awesome game. :D
ReplyDeleteWhen I click on that link I get a "document is not available" message. Is it not shared, maybe?
Oops - try now?
ReplyDeleteHmmm... Still getting "Sorry, the page (or document) you have requested is not available."
ReplyDeleteSigh - OK, I have made it "public on the Web" rather than "anyone with link" - if that does not work I may have to seek other media of distribution!
ReplyDeleteGot it! Ooh, and the spell lists are there, too. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteI really like that the game rules are almost all on the sheet. That really helps new players get a firm grasp, and makes rules look-up almost nonexistant as well. :)
ReplyDeleteYep - I'm not sure how accessible the rules are to someone without the rudiments of D&D, but part of my choice of the D&D system is its near universal familiarity to anyone who has done any roleplaying at all.
ReplyDeleteI like it! Now I'm wishing I could whip something like that up in German for the Con starting tomorrow evening!
ReplyDeleteGlad that somebody is getting some use out of Meatshields! Very cool sheets. I love the "status" table.
ReplyDeleteThanks guys! Meatshields is indeed a great way to get some random dudes with short but meaningful characterization.
