Other resources are also available.

Thanks, I have checked out all that stuff and it is fantastic. I just seem to always miss something and thus redo most of the gaming aids ;)

Have these ever been updated? Last I checked they had none of the options from Martial Arts and they were missing quite a few of the ones from the Basic Set.

They are for the 4e. They seem up to date. Can you recall what they were missing?

First thing that comes to mind is a Shock Card.

Well, there's two cards, Do Nothing (stunned) and Do Nothing (mental stunned), as well as Condition: Major Wound. Do these cover Shock?

I just check the Basic Set, Campaigns, and on page 419, Shock is described. I guess because it lasts only the next round, they didn't include a card for it.

As I said way back when:

• Deceptive Attack
• Rapid Strike
• Flurry of Blows
• Mighty Blow
• Feverish Defense

As well as all of the options from GURPS Martial Arts, High-Tech and Gun-Fu. Committed Attack, Defensive Attack, Ranged Rapid Strikes and so on.

Check it out, tried to incorporate the changes you suggested.

That looks very nice. I'll see what my players think of it later this week.

Nice sheet

(All attacks safe explosions can be dodged)

Is this a typo though? I have been at work and am tired, but it reads wrong to me.

meant to say save? If so except would be better

Any IIRC explosions can be dodged in that you can take a step to move you away from the blast. Depending on your step you might get relatively far away.
