I am new to 40k 'again' after 18 years off...

Your quick reference sheets are AWESOME!

Thank you.

**hairojin**

I really appreciate the work you gave put into these, my gaming group use these all the time now. However the table for outflanking seems to be wrong.

**PeterWelzien**

Really nice cheat sheets!

The special rules list isn't sorted entirely correct. The following rules are in the wrong location:

And they shall know no fear
Air-to-air
Armourbane
Melta
Slow & purposeful
Smash
Split fire
Two-handed

**GothmogLordofBalrogs**

First of all this is amazing

Not sorting through everything in the thread, but here are the few mistakes I noticed
pg 3- copy paste error for Outflank. You have the same rolls as DS mishap. Should be 1-2, 3-4. 5-6
pg 3- Movement Table. Jet Pack (not using)- the not using part is cut off
pg 1- for the CAD and Allied det, you are missing "(or no faction)" for the faction requirements
pg 2- Linebreaker does not have its VP listed like the other 2 secondaries
pg 2- I don't see variable game length listed anywhere
pg 1- you don't define insane heroism

Thanks everyone - all these have been incorporated into a V9 sheet, which also includes all the rules from Death From the Skies...

Great work mate! The effort is amazing.

**ArbitorIan**

Looks like we've got some publicity from Spiky Bits (the Buzzfeed of geeking)! They're being their usual clickbait selves.

"YOU'LL NEVER BELIEVE WHAT IS ON THESE REFERENCE SHEETS! I WAS SO SHOCKED BY PAGE FOUR!"

"IF YOU LOVE 40k YOU'LL LOVE THIS LINK PLEASE CLICK ME PLEASE PLEASE"

"ALL NEW THING HONEST PLEASE CLICK HERE ITS DEFINITELY NEW AND NOT BEEN AROUND FOR TWO YEARS WE PROMISE"

They've linked to v8 instead of v9. I think I'll just change the link to 7edREF_Current and update the file it relates to - that way everyone is always getting the most recent version.

Still, hopefully it'll get a few people down to the club...

Hello,

Looks like the V9 link is not working. Says file not found!

Thanks and keep up the good work!

Hello!
First of, this is a great summary, and a great addition to help us play!

Second, telekinesis (6):
Psychic Maelstrom (Witchfire 2)
R12” S10 AP1 Assault 1, Large Blast,
Barrage.

Should be:
Psychic Maelstrom (Witchfire 3)
R12” S10 AP1 Assault 1, Large Blast,
Barrage.

As the correct number of Warp Charges is 3.

Would also love an addition of the Chaos Daemons spells along with the CSM

My BRB has this listed as Warp Charge 2 - was this errata at some point?

**FoxPhoenix135**

Thank you for including the variable game length! It's one I constantly had to look up because my dumb ol' brain refused to remember it. Very helpful!

**cybercloud2010**

For the Special Rules section, maybe I'm blind but I can't find the Instant Death summary.

**Star Man**

This is a very useful set of charts and I appreciate that you went through the effort to make it.

Though you should go back and look for spelling mistakes like apostrophe misuse. There's a ton of them.

@Star Man - ArbitorIan has put a lot of effort into this. Why not help him out and point out the mistakes, rather than him having to spend time finding them? I'm sure that would be appreciated

**Whittlesey40k**

@ArbitorIan - my gaming group have said that a one-page super-summary would be useful.

I chucked together a page by copying your 'Concise Turn Sequence', 'Assault To Hit' chart, 'To Wound' chart, 'Vehicle Damage' chart and 'Vehicle Shooting' chart.

I also put a table together that's a combination of the 'movement distances', 'moving in the shooting phase' and 'charge distances' tables to help it all fit on a page.

What we've found is this covers the stuff we constantly need, and the other pages are stuff we might refer to a few times a game, or not even every game.

If you're interested I can send it over to you, post it here, or whatever. I'm sure with the work you've put into these so far you could make it better.

**Vector Strike**

Uh, where's the 30k version?

Also, in the light of the new FAQ, it would be advisable to change the battle-brother tip to include "units from different factions cannot enter transports of each other" or something like that

I would certainly appreciate a copy of this.

**Soteks Prophet**

My GF and I are getting into (back into for me) 40k and these are really useful. I know a new edition is going to hit soon but thanks for making the Hobby newb friendly

**The Deer Hunter**

Realky, this kind of stuffs are very usefull. I think GW should think of doing an official one. It would be a best seller

**stonned_astartes**

Any chance your thinking of doing one for the 8th edition?

**ArbitorIan**

I will, so it might be a few weeks until I have time to go through and make one.

Definitely in the pipeline though!

**stonned_astartes**

Excellent, makes playing a dam sight easier.

Thank's for all the hard work.

**ArbitorIan**

YO!

I've got a few messages about these no longer being available/updated.

Partly this is because Dropbox doesn't allow direct downloads any more, but if you have a login, you can find them at:

HH 7ed - https://www.dropbox.com/s/tp3qxyzu9lnwmbr/7edRef_HH.pdf?dl=0

40k 7ed - https://www.dropbox.com/s/4h493n3htzg8tsx/7edRef_v8.pdf?dl=0

I'm NOT going to be updating these any more, even the Heresy ones. After the release of 8ed, I switched over and have been developing the 8ed Heresy system instead. No space for 7ed in my brain any more!

If anyone would like to keep these going for Heresy, let me know and I'll send you the project files - they're in Pages for OSX.

**Toreador**

If you could, I would like to give it a try, if you still have the project files.
