More Encumbrance

First, here's an old character sheet I ran across while digging through old stuff.


That's my crude attempt at a backpack, bag, and figure from ~15 years ago. This was my buddies character. And you can see it doesn't really work, everything is sort of haphazardly jumbled in the backpack. But still an attempt at keeping track of gear encumbrance and location.

Also, I was tallying up the weight of the fastpack I give characters at start of play and ... arrgh, they would all be partially encumbered just by carrying the starting gear!

I don't want to get too hung up on the detail, but I don't want to just completely ignore what they're carrying either. I've been thinking/working on a simple record sheet. Thanks to Roger the GS of Roles, Rules,and Rolls, I looked to the Outdoor Survival counters as models to give players a easy graphic representation of how weight affects movement.

Here are the originals:


Here's what I did with them:


And here are a couple mock ups using the new silhouettes:


An encumbrance movement key.


And encumbrance checkboxes for average human strength (15 pounds per box).

What do you think?
