They seem quite useful for if you plan on running the starter kit and want to keep the character booklets nice and clean.
I don't know if you want to use dry erase markers for them though. I find those to be especially easy to erase by mistake.
I created them exactly because of that as I pretend to demo the game regularly through the Starter Kit material. And that’s why I thought of using dry-erase pens on a laminated surface.
I have been using index cards. And it works nice for a one-shot, but when playing more than once I think having all that info in your face will help you not forget about them. I am going to steal it if you don't mind.
Also, I love to hear your stories about running the game. And any gripes, even if it was talked about before.
These look to be very helpful. Thanks!
I got a deck of dry-erase index cards and a little magnetic white-board (with colored magnets for the scene tracker) to use for SCRPG. The players each got cards for scribbling down Boosts and Hinders. I used them to track the different Challenges and for minion/lieuteant status. For minions, I'd just write "Spider-Bots" and put as many d6s (or d4s or whatevers) on the card and use that to keep track.
My other trick was to take the cover images for the characters, shrink them down to card size and print them on cardstock. Then I used card stands (the kind used for paper minis and in some board games (but if you want to buy them on amazon, they're called "card stands"). When a person took their turn, they tipped over their card and stood it back up at the start.
