Skunkwerks - Unit Quirks
« on: 17 May 2017, 15:35:33 »
Greetings

Is there anyway to get the unit quirks (from the battlemech manual) into record sheets from skunkwerks printouts?....I see that the skunkwerks has a quirks section but they do not seem to be visible anywhere on the record sheet itself.  Thanks

There's not a way, sadly, short of learning the coding and doing it yourself.

The original coder stopped working on SSW for some reason I don't recall a while ago, and since then there's been no support for the program.

Thanks for the reply.  Thats a shame really the program is still amazing.  I had a thought that if you did the quirks as a custom ammo or weapon you could them onto the sheet, but then that would take up a critical slot and thats no good....I suppose using a full version pdf editor could work to place some text on the record sheet and get the quirks on them that way.....might work.

IIRC, he went on deployment, but that was years ago.  He actually showed up to a campaign I was playing in one time, but he's pretty well completely dropped off the Battletech radar since then.

Try looking in the print settings, I'm not at home but I'm pretty sure theres a way to get everything to print off.
