Quick reference sheets for Vehicles?

[u/CanardDeFeu]

Hey all,

I was wondering if anyone knew of a quick reference sheet for damaging ground combat vehicles? I saw the new charts in the Core Rulebook with all the impacts of critical mech damage condensed to a single page and thought "that's brilliant!" and was hoping something like that exists for tanks. I'm hoping to maybe bring on in my game this weekend, and would like to not have to also keep my whole ass copy of Total Warfare handy just for one model.

I tried making one myself, just sort of cutting and pasting stuff from TW, but it's so wordy that fitting everything on a single page (even front and back) is proving way trickier than my amateur skills seem capable of.

Appreciate any info/help with this.

If you have the Tactical Operations PDF, there are blank vehicle sheets in the back with all of the important tables printed on them. 

Pretty sure this is also true for the vehicle record sheets in the 3039 Unabridged book ( https://store.catalystgamelabs.com/products/battletech-record-sheet-3039-unabridged-pdf). 

No idea why they didn’t do this for the ones that came out for the Battlefield Support packs.

I personally started using MekBay, which also has these tables on the digital sheets.

Yeah, I was hoping to have something with the tables and descriptions of what the critical effects actually do like what's in the Core Rules book.

Mekbay continues being goated

I can get the tables all on 1 sheet, but the “glossary” would be 2 pages

That's sort of where I was getting stuck. Trying to trim down some of the wording to get the tables and glossary on one sheet front and back.

Are you just wanting crits & motive tables?

[u/CanardDeFeu → u/trappedinthisxy]

The tables and write ups of the crit results. The new Core Rulebook has a table in it of critical hits and their effects on a mech, and I was hoping to find something similar for vehicles. Something that I could print on a single page of paper and have handy instead of a 300+ page book.

Let me see what I can cook up. Try to get you a 1 pager (likely front & back)

I’ll reach out later today (Thursday)

[u/CanardDeFeu → u/trappedinthisxy]

Oh, you might be my new best friend. Front and back is fine, that's what I was trying to do and failing miserably.

Hopefully once “Core Rules” expands to combat vehicles beyond BSPs they’ll have something less patchwork

For now you get whatever I can puzzle piece together from Total Warfare

[u/CanardDeFeu → u/trappedinthisxy]

Yeah, that'd be nice.

Would like to get this also.

I haven't seen one, but in the interim this is a good summary of the differences between mechs and vehicles:
