| Use of non combat people in combat. Tickler to discuss tests of will and tricks. If not clear though back to the drawing board to call that out. |

If it weren't for all the tradmarked logos and characters, I'd definitely petition to have these made available as a free download from the Pinnacle site. I think the legal issues of the aforementioned images would make that impossible, but these are very cool, ProfMarks!

I really dig these. I even have a 4-panel screen, but it's unfortunately landscape  |

Awesome stuff, ProfMarks!
I was just brain-storming how I could make a condensed 1 page Intro to Savage Worlds for players but yours in MUCH better than what I was imagining. The visual aspect of the pictures teaches it so much better. Thanks! _________________ Check out my Star Wars Showdown! conversion: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/filepage/36172/star-wars-showdown |

| This is awesome, but I'm having trouble getting past the fact that you gave Inigo Montoya a mere d6 in Fighting. |

For the 104 slide, it might help to put on the 3 arrows that highlight the kinds of damage to have math symbols
< (to indicate no damage)
= (Shaken)
+4,8,12 (wounds)
And perhaps something to indicate per wound you are at a -1 to all trait checks. |

In my first iteration of this, I actually had the criteria listed next to the arrows. I removed it in the end because it broke away from what I was trying to achieve with these pictures. They aren't intended to be GM screens, in fact, there's a lot left out with even the few items I opted to illustrate.
Best way I could describe what I was attempting was, well, a blackboard a teacher would have behind them as they talked through the lesson. All the details aren't there, they are meant to work in concert with the instruction to hopefully make it more impact-full and stick more, as well as give a GM a concise road map for talking points. As I went from board to board, I almost lost sight of this a couple times.
Appreciate the note, just giving you my reasoning for doing what I did. By all means, as far as I'm concerned, I would invite anyone who would like to add to the pictures to do so to suit their taste and intended use.
Also, for what's it worth to the poster commenting on Inigo's Parry, totally concur. The numbers were put together before I settled on the picture so that would -not- be my assessment of his fighting prowess. |

Any chance of seeing a 'printer-friendly' version of these pics? Maybe something without the blackboard graphic, and the 'chalk lines' turned to simple lines? I still love all the little pictures and things, but it would go easier on my ink levels if this were possible. _________________ You can't save the world without kicking a few old ladies down the stairs. |

I love this and would very much like to use them for an online game I'm running soon. Would also love to blog about your 101 images...

Please do. I posted them because I thought they would be useful to the savage community outside of my own personal use. Note that the images used were simply grabbed from the internet and I don't claim any ownership and would suggest thoughtful reproduction and distribution. |

They really help and work well. Being new to Savage Worlds, running it and playing it, I've already had players point to something on it to remind me of rules I've forgotten.
Love having them on the back of my screen. |

Thanks... I was going to use them for a blog post but really do not want to cause any trouble due to the images. At least I am sending them to my players. Awesome really!
