Anyone have a Critical Damage Cheat Sheet?
« on: 10 June 2019, 21:00:04 »
Does anyone have a good cheat sheet for all the critical damage effects? I know someone on here made one--it was purple--once upon a time, but I lost it.

The standard cheat sheets from the box sets, the tables in the back of Total Warfare, and the Warfare Pack (which is a reprint of those tables on high-quality cardstock) all have the effects of critical damage to things like gyros, actuators, and sensors.  Nothing else really needs such sheets.

Ah, I see them in the back of Total Warfare now, and here I have been looking up each critical hit in the damage effects section of Total Warfare between pages 123-128 (mid game) this entire time like a sucker. 

The needed tables are within the Piloting/Driving Skill Roll Table and the Attack modifiers Table. I may make my own cheat sheet by combining only the needed information from those two tables into one table.

You could also just copy the pages (or print them if you've got a PDF copy of the book).  It also helps by giving you things like the to-hit modifiers for different circumstances, the hit location tables, and the cluster table.

That's it. That's the one I was looking for. What was lost has now been found--thanks.

There's also the PDF of boxed set table charts available from the Downloads page. Not exactly what you're looking for but could be useful.

You bought the box set and are ready to expand your BT experience. Now what? (Thanks Sartis!)
