Watcher cheat sheet

Watcher cheat sheet

Postby rockodes » Wed Jul 11, 2012 1:29 pm

So I picked up the Marvel Heroic Roleplaying Basic Game book while at the Dexcon gaming convention this past weekend. While reading through the Operations Manual, there was a reference to being able to download a Watcher's cheat sheet here on the website. So far I have been unable to locate it. From reading the forums it sounds like it may have been included in the PDF, which I do not have.

Did I miss it? Is it only in the PDF? Presuming that it is not somewhere on the site currently, is there intention of making it available?

Thanks for all your help!

The Watcher cheat sheet (along with the player's cheat sheet and printer-friendly datafiles) come with the PDF download through DriveThruRPG. Who did you buy your book from? You may qualify for a free PDF copy if they are a preferred retailer with MWP.

I believe it was Modern Myths, which does seem to be on the preferred retailer list. How do I go about proving that / who do I followup with to proceed?

I am dumb and have since found the info on the site about the program. I think I may be out of luck though, as I did not get a card with the store's ID# from the merchant when I purchased my copy. I will have to double check when I get back home.

Thanks for the assist.

While you may not be able to get the official cheat sheets, there are some fan ones out there that most people think are better.

Here they are:

That fan-made Watcher sheet is, indeed, better than the official one.

Of all the things to make exclusive content, a Watcher aid and Player aid should not be among them.

"We want to make it easier to play our game, but only if you buy from this one retailer."

Seems a bit absurd.
My apologies for occasional spelling... shenanigans. I typically post from mobile devices.

Found this on twitter, maybe the OP is the one who asked, since it's basically the same question about the cheat sheets: "Those are actually bundled in with the PDF on DriveThru, but we're going to have some revised sheets up soon!"

So, it looks like there will be improved versions available soon, but it doesn't say they will be available for free download.
