Some have wondered how I can do so many batreps in so little time... or something... so, I thought I'd share my secret!

Combining turn-by-turn photos and the following document, you too can whip off several battle reports in a few days!

The sheets are pretty self-explanatory, and sometimes we don't even use the middle section, though you could print out more if you have a lot of formations in play!  There are, in the basic sheets, 28 "slots" for recording actions during a turn.  In the end phase, just use it as a checklist for who has rallied or not.

Enjoy and please let me know if you think of any improvements!

Just break down your notes into paragraphs, with each paragraph containing two activations.

No need to get flowery like I do, I just like to write, a simple "1st Comp. fired sustained at 3rd Tac Marine (-2xTac Marines) would suffice to give players the needed info. on the activation.

An order sequence IMHO makes it easier to understand the batrep, and cuts down on a lot of questions.

Jaldon :p

Helpful form. I can see how that would make writing Batreps easy.
