GM Screens
« on: December 27, 2012, 07:55:30 PM »
In prepping for my own upcoming campaign I felt the need for some of the more important information closer at hand and decided to design a couple of GM screens for that purpose. All of the information and notes contained within come from the Dungeon World text and ideas or from Scrape's Dungeon World Guide (with some editing and rephrasing for layout logistics). Hopefully I've done them all justice. And that you all find the information useful in your own gaming. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Both are designed to be able to be attached to a preexisting GM screen. One of them is portrait layout for the standard screen style. The other in landscape (and consisting of 4 panels instead of 3), as I'm using my landscape-oriented D&D 4th Ed screen.

Here are the links:

Hmm... I wanted to do one myself, but I was going to a more minimalistic text approach, with some page references for whatever was longer and could be necessary.

But a lot of the stuff is right there.

I thought about doing page references, but looking things up meant distraction from running the game, as all I have is the PDF thus far. I passed on  including the basic moves since every character should have them available, as well as the GM. It's a first draft in the layout really. I wanted to go back and make common information more clearly grouped and delineate things better, but haven't had time yet. I'm looking at borders and colored backgrounds for a second draft. Whenever I have time for that.

I did some GM screen inserts for my campaign as well.  Here's the link if anyone's interested.
