Thanks Thom! I plan to do a combat sheet. Once on ODD74 I wrote up a combat order like in Moldvay, but I later decided I didn't like it as it made things too rigid. For example, Holmes doesn't really say that missile fire comes before melee every round; instead it happens before melee because the monsters are closing with the party.
Zach H Yeah, oil and holy water grenades were my next to be added. But, you already did it! huzzah thanks. I definitely like the flexibility of Holmes combat. Keeping the rules of the various editions I employ at the table straight from eachother requires good reference sheets and these have been great
!!!
ReplyDeleteWith crazyart! :-)
ReplyDeleteCool cover!
ReplyDeleteThat is a thing of beauty...
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely brilliant! Every update/addition is better than the last!
ReplyDeleteI really like the backgrounds section.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to print this in a small booklet format. It's great for quick classic D&D if somebody is asking for it!
ReplyDeleteAnd the best thing (for me) is that everything Zach PDFs is completely compatible with my own 0e+Supps/Holmes house rules!
ReplyDeleteThanks, all!
ReplyDeleteI really like the updates and the new cover sheets. I offer up my cheat sheet with the only items i use on a regular basis that I missed from your reference :)

ReplyDeleteOther tables I'd put in there: the Range table for missile weapons, and the table I made for oil/holy water (which you could use for other thrown items): odd74.proboards.com - Oil & Holy Water | Original D&D Discussion
ReplyDeleteAs an option, my version of variable damage for Holmes: zenopusarchives.blogspot.com - Variable Weapon Damage for Holmes - What If?
