    I personally have not, but I mostly play with people who are at least somewhat TTRPG experienced.
    Yes, I have. Especially with people who have never before played any TTRPG's. I have many acquaintances who I have lured to the hobby, and the only contact with the hobby they may have is relatively sporadic games with different rule sets each time (Pathfinder 1st edition, 4th edition D&D, 5th edition D&D), and since they are still new to the hobby, it's understandable that they're not as invested in the process as veteran players such as myself, and quite easily forget what they might have barely learned once "half a year ago" (more or less figuratively speaking).

    As a consequence, I'd like to (find the time to) create something simple and easy enough for anyone to follow, and fall back to, if or whenever a player might feel they forgot something. Like some sort of leaflet with basic guidelines and actual examples, rather than vague hints to here or there.

    Please be mindful of what you say in public; sadly not all can handle sarcasm or The Internet Credibility.
