Kiko of Penny-Arcade fame recently made some wonderful blast guides to share with the warmachine community at large. and I wanted to take the time to make sure they had some more exposure to the warmachine community.

When I was first learning Warmachine a veteran player gave me a Warmachine Quick reference Sheet to help me along. I have always appreciated the usefulness of those sheets, keeping me from fumbling through the rulebooks to find what I was looking for. That was just before Apotheosis was released, and Hordes was on its way. I ended up with the updated versions created by Creation Matrix with help from elakin, phulcrum, talon, LordJesse, and seemingly facilitated by our very own Geist. They were beyond helpful.
With MK II came the need for updated versions of the Quick Reference Sheets. I waited to see if anyone else was going to undertake the task of building new reference, but it became apparent that I would take on the challenge. I wanted to build something that everyone could use, and possibly pay forward from those that had worked on the MK I QRS. I have to admit that while I have no problem working with others, I sometimes have control issues when it comes to certain projects. I did have a lot of help with proof-reading, suggestions, corrections, and clarifications, and I owe a debt of gratitude and many thanks to those that helped early on.
