Had a little time yesterday, and as a noob I figured making my own GM screen would be a good way to get acquainted with d6.

I like the Savage Worlds trifold GM screen:


You can probably get them other places, but I got mine at Amazon.


Here's the front once loaded:


Here's the inside once loaded:


I have uploaded the file as a PDF here:

EDIT: I am receiving good suggestions which I will be incorporating. You may wish to DL the above BUT wait until you see the subsequent versions before final printing. I will add each with a new link.

You are welcome to it if you find it useful.

If you see any errors or have any suggestions, please let me know!

Yeah, you're totally a noob. A noob that's AWESOME! Smile

I see a couple of errors (not big ones), and I'll make a list of those, but you HAVE to tell me where you got the art for this. I'd like to do up a GM screen very similar to yours.

Also, it looks like you've got a nice minis collection, very cool.

Thanks for you kind compliments! I'd love to get this corrected and re-posted, so thanks for the proof reading.

This was done on MS Publisher 2010 (beta). The background behind the tables is a standard back ground - Chrome II.

The nifty animated images images are from a guy on deviantart
http://joefreakinrocks.deviantart.com/gallery/#Star-Wars.

He put together some for a guy on WOTC for his GM screen.

There is a different center screen than the one I used, but it was a bit much to have out in front of my 8yo daughter (a little Ani-Que at the Mustafar Beach).


The center one I used was off a google search if memory serves. Hope this helps!

Also, please consider this a try out if you guys need assistance formatting and assembling fan source books. Love to give back to the community if I can.

BTW, here's another of my favs:

Okay, these are not the standard 8.5 x 11. On what size paper should this be printed?

Hmmm...... that's odd. It is specifically designed for 8.5 x 11 on Publisher.

I just test printed from Adobe Reader 9.3.0 and it fits 8.5 x 11 perfectly.

They are on 8.5 x 11 in landscape orientation. You may have to set your printing preferences / properties to something like this (others may work, but this is what mine is set to, and it does work):

(I will assume whomever reads this knows little about computers - please, no one be offended? Thanks!)

Click on File, then print setup - click on Orientation radio button for "Landscape". Make sure paper size is set to "letter". Hit "OK".

Click on File, then print. Make sure Page scaling is set to "shrink to printable area", check "Auto-Rotate and Center" so it is "on", and confirm that the Preview shows all of page one. Below the preview, my screen says "Units: Inches Zoom: 97%" which is set by the page scaling box to the left.

chesire, can you try this and let me know? Thanks!

Would anyone prefer a more ink friendly version with no background?

How about a version with with the various stat boxes in colors to make finding them easier?

Did I miss any critical tables?

I am open to suggestions! Definitely a WIP, so let me know, either here or by PM.

Okay, then this is just my misunderstanding. I was looking around on the internet getting some information on the Savage Worlds screen as it was, and one of the reviews said that it didn't easily accept 8.5x11 paper, and I was making the assumption that the review was correct.

My bad.

Thanks! I could only find one flaw with this image. It has Rogue Two (Zev Senesca) who only appeared in one movie and died, instead of Wedge Antilles who appeared in three movies and was instrumental in the climax of the final film. I think it is likely that whoever created this image mistakenly believed that image was Wedge.

Here's my contribution. Been working on this for a long while now. Finally finished it.

Probably some typos here... let me know if there are ones that you just can't let slide.

Enjoy the gaudy colors.

Hisham posted this on another board. I thought I'd share the link. I think I might actually do this:
