RR_Ref_basic_equipment: A copy of the basic equipment list in the rules. It is small and has most of what you need.

Charts

RR_Ref_combat: The combat reference sheet is all the charts & tables you need. One page is for character combat and the other is for vehicle combat. It is handy if printed up as a two-sided sheet. Some players want their own copy, some don't. The vehicle combat sheet is somewhat spacecraft-centric, but good for any type of vehicle.
