Handy all-ships-in-one maneuver reference card, including Wave 5.

These are great!
Thanks I have been waiting for an updated version of your reference cards. They are great. Thanks for all the hard work.
Very nice, as the last time!
I was hoping you were going to go to 2 cards per faction, though. The charts are pretty small, and yes, I'm getting older. I also miss the speed indicator up the side, and personally would rather have that shown than the ship's ratings.
But again, these are fantastic, thanks so much for putting them together and sharing!
This is fantastic. I've been looking for a nicely formatted one. At that level of detail, I'm sure you could enlarge the images and just print 2 or 3 to a page instead of all 9.
Thanks, guys.
My intent is to keep the referencing minimalistic (single card, sized like pilot cards), but at 600 dpi, people will be be able just print them as an A3, without any noticable downgrade in quality.
I also miss the speed indicator up the side, and personally would rather have that shown than the ship's ratings.
Huh? The speed indicator was trashed, as I never used it (every block contains the maximum 5 slots, and I also know there's a maximum of 3 speeds of turns/banks, so I personally get the speed instantly without a second thought). Ship stats on the other hand, I use often, as I can never seem to remember them.
To keep the maneuvers as large as possible though. I'm afraid I'm keeeping it this way to my personal liking.
I hope you'll work out a trick that works for you, to easily deduce the speed.
Edited by MalmerThanks for this. Printed some out on card stock yesterday, works a treat.

Big fan! These are awesome!
Malmer, what do you think about the following suggestion for the Lambda Shuttle:
In this very crude mockup I nudged all the Shuttle's arrows one step down to be in line with all the other ships. The zero-maneuver of course gets bumped outside the general grid, which is curious for sure, but not that aesthetically displeasing. Because of the extra space needed for the zero-maneuver I switched the Shuttle's place with the Decimator.

I would suggest to put "Stop" to K-turn row. It would look better than this..
To keep things simple and relevant, I'll no longer be surveying or updating the old thread .The gaming area gets cluttered easily, and the solutions I've seen for referencing ship maneuvers,are less than optimal.I've made this double-sided reference card instead, for your printing leisure.It's the same size as the ship cards, so it will fit right in with your stash.9 cards on a sheet, ready for print, can be downloaded here:(PDF is A4, double-sided, 600dpi, CMYK. The cards are pure bitmap this time around, as they became very vector-heavy.A background-free version is available here .)People are free to share them on whatever blog, channel or community they're running or frequenting. Enjoy
Great job!

You guys have a point. Moving it to the K-row might not be such a bad idea either. I will ponder on it for a bit!
EDIT: I've decided that it would be a worthwhile addition, and the cards are now updated. Thank you guys for great observation and contribution!
Edited by MalmerThanks Malmer!
I like the change (though I will have to explain to anyone I teach the game to that the Shuttle does not get a "0" k-turn - even though that would be awesome!)
Thanks Malmer!

You can just teach what's already in the rulebook, that 'bearing' is indicated by the shape of the arrow/maneuver
Great job here Malmer! I already linked to this in my "Index of useful threads". Must-have especially for new and experienced players alike.
In a few more weeks hopefully we will get all of the Scum dials, and then you can add a third faction!
Can you scale one of those up so one "card" fills an 8.5 x 11 piece of paper please?
These cards are incredibly helpful. Thanks for your work on them. Would it be possible to get a version of the PDF without the background images on the cards?

I've a met a few that would choose speed over stats, so I went ahead and made alternative versions.

I've made them available as single cards, where all of the graphics (except the background, of course) are vectorized.
That way you can scale it to any size you'd want.

The background free version has been availabe up there from the start, but I don't anything to directly advertise that version. It's also available now, in all of the new variations.

Enjoy, guys
Yeah,
This is a great resource thank you
Panic...
Good job, very useful tool, greettings
This is awesome but I cant print out the Ship Stats Single card but I can print out the Ship speed single card. Can you double check the file please?
Thank you

Thank you
Did you try uninstalling windows and then re-installing it first?
I have so many useless rule cards about ion markers, boost, modifications, ... etc
WHY FFG don't came up with maneuver reference cards for each ship?
Why gamers have to help themselves?

I tried resetting the print permissions. It seems to work here now, so go ahead and re-download it.
cracking good work!
