I have several versions made with Publisher that are cut and paste from various books. What are you looking for in particular?

I am looking for the main tables. So things like turn undead, combat matrix and saves. Any other tables is just bonus beyound that to me.

I've typed up this kind of stuff several times. My problem is that I can't decide which rules to go with (M&M vs Greyhawk, d6 HD vs dOther, etc) and often end up jumping back and forth in the same doccument so it ends up somewhat less than useful. I also can never decide where to cut off level data, which classes to include, and so on.

um I would do level 1-10 and d6 weapons. Just m&m stuff. Maybe a spell list with page numbers too. you only need three classes any ways so that taken care of.

Yeah, they always start out that way, then I start thinking about the thief and eventually I want to add in high enough levels for MU that they can access level 6 spells and slowly things build. Not too fancy, but here's one I started the other weekend for a game I was running on the spur of the moment.... Attachments:

Cool. Just out of curiousity, why is the Cleric-vs-Undead chart on there, plus a chart representing the math behind it?

Fin, it's funny, I feel the same way as you're sounding.... thief or no thief? Alt combat or Chainmail? Alt combat+ Alt damage? ...or not? D6 damage and d6 HD's? LOL
Use Greyhawk or just 3lbb's? or Just 3lbb's w/Chainmail ...or should I use Blackmoor too?
It's all good. :-D

I typed up the regular chart first, then said to myself "you know, this has a nice pattern to it and I'll bet I could just change it into quick math" but I haven't playtested the math version to see if I like it during play. So I didn't delete the other one. If I find I like the math version, it's a lot smaller space-wise and I can make the other one go away. If I don't like it I still have the original version.

LOL Yeah, that's been my love/hate with OD&D for 35 years. My compromise is that different adventures often get run different ways, and my players are cool with the fact that the rules constantly change. They're used to me starting off a session by saying "okay, here's how we're playing it today" and giving them a few guidelines.

I turned my Judges Guild ready-ref sheets into a homemade-version of their judges shield.
The nice crisp sheets from Different Worlds helped tremendously.

Here's a PDF of custom reference sheets I created almost 3 years ago. It includes Attack Matrix, Saving Throws and Clerics verses Undead tables. The combat charts include both the traditional AC and Ascending Armor Class (AAC) conversions. It also includes Combat Sequence, Movement Rates of PC Races and Tactical Movement Rate Table (All from Philotomy's site). I revised Philotomy's Simplified Combat Sequence to fit my style of running combat. "Movement" phase was moved up before Missile and Magic phases. Attachments:

Nice charts, Fandomaniac! I may end up using these if I don't bother to make my own -- hope you don't mind. Exalt!

He means that Different Worlds sells nice copies of the Ready Ref Sheets.

I've put one together here: I folded it in half, laminated it and it works very well.
