I am really liking REUP but I was wondering if anyone has made a GM screen for it? I guess what I am looking for is a quick reference for rules such as starship and vehicle damage.

Nothing I've heard of, but it's an interesting idea. I'm pretty sure a lot of the old REUP crew still lurk over on Google+, so I'll ask around.

Thanks! If they don't have something I can make something quick in excel but their stuff is far superior to what I can do.

Heard back pretty quickly. Apparently, the REUP group is defunct. No details were given, but I was told they will not be producing new REUP material ever. There was some discussion of doing a GM Screen, but it never went anywhere. Any such project would need to be crowd-sourced through the community.

It never hurts to ask.

The actual REUP community is defunct, and it wouldn't necessarily need crowd-sourced through any community anyway. There is nothing stopping anyone from making their own personal "REUP-compatible" GM Screen, and even sharing it with others if they wanted to.

Something like GM screens are good to be personally made by GMs for themselves because not all GMs will feel the same stuff needs quick referenced, and a GM making his own can personalize it with any house rules they may have.

Really, the R&E screen is REUP compatible. It's not the same hardback quality that contemporary GM screens are, and it's just paperback cardstock. But even then, that's not something you could easily POD.

And the R&E screen is one of the more expensive WEG SW products to get now, isn't it?

They have some of the more expensive listings on eBay, $75-$150. But those don't ever sell. If you're patient, you can snag them for under $20.

I was fortunate enough to pick up a 2R&E GM Screen cheap (likely at Half-Price Books), even though I rarely use it.

Another idea for a GM screen is to get one of the World's Greatest GM Screen (I think it's the one shown here), then insert your own info for a customized screen.
