Re: Pre-Gen cards and Character sheet pads
Looking over these sheets as shown on the Kickstarter, I am curious, as Melee has no IQ attribute, and yet, the Melee Character pad includes the IQ attribute. I can only surmise this is in fact designed for non-wizards using the full ITL system in the future; OR, has IQ been added in the re-edit of Melee?

Not much different than the current Wiz ones, just made to be for whatever character might be designed, all in a neat looking quick pad format. Experienced campaigners can use the flip side for rations, items, etc. That is, the pad is a great idea, just have Character Pad sheets of one type instead of the current two somewhat artificially split between heroes and fighters. It makes things simpler from a production and consumption perpective, makes balancing use of one (gee still have two full pads of Wizard pads, out of Fighter pads OR "Stop using Wiz pads for your Fighter characters!" "But there is room for my Talents and stuff..."). |

Re: Pre-Gen cards and Character sheet pads
The Melee and Wizard character pads are not the character sheets.
These are for someone who wants to create quick, disposable characters for a simple skirmish. These are not the full character sheets.

Re: Pre-Gen cards and Character sheet pads
On the other hand, I love the size and look of the pre-gen, character cards.
I'd love to see something like that - maybe reusable - for PCs. |

I am however, trying to get an answer to my question of: As the "Melee Character Record Pads" as shown on the Kickstarter page are illustrating the inclusion of an IQ attribute slot for Melee figures - even though original Melee does not have or use the IQ attribute - is this then indicating that the new Melee rules have added the IQ attribute and IQ rules to Melee? That's the simple yes or no answer I am interested in learning. JK |

Re: Pre-Gen cards and Character sheet pads
It's not like ITL characters don't fit on 3×5 cards anyway - expect those pads to be used for PC's even in some people's ITL campaigns.

Here's the link It was a card that's "got everything on it that you have to have to fight Melee, and an IQ score, just in case they have to face wizards". I'm extrapolating that the pads have IQ for the same reason as the cards. You can watch for yourself and see what you think. Last edited by zot; 08-09-2018 at 08:31 AM.

And that's what begs the question: Have the Melee rules have been changed to now include the IQ attribute, as that would logically jibe with what is shown for the data fields which appear on the *Melee Character* record pads; as illustrated. JK PS- Thanks for the link. I know you are trying to be informative and helpful, but I think it's always best to avoid speculation and wait for confirmation, and certainly in this question of IQ and the rules-set for Melee... as the *Melee character* Record Pads have specifically accounted for - let's wait and see; shall we?
