D&D 4E Shado's 4e Color Landscape Sheets v1.2: UPDATED 6/24

wulfbein · Jun 10, 2008

I like this sheet very much. Nice format, nice layout. Nice Visual too.
The idea of going Landscape instead of letter is good too.
Only thing i'd say about the power section is that it's a little small if you have a power with multiple effects, say primastic spray of these two-time attacks for martial.

overall 9 eyestalks out of ten.

Very nice. A bit rich for my blood though.

Quick question on this. Does the program allow you to place any picture file on the card or is it proprietary to their "design" software? I ask because I'd love to use these for printing the .jpg files from MSE for power cards and wonder if it would work. Thanks.

Yeah... Illustrator isn't for everyone. I was fortunate that it was included with my video production software.

As for Plain Cards, I don't have their program. Just bought the card stock. Measure out on the sheets wear the card are set, and made a template of my own to print from. So I just copy and paste my jpg files to the template, then I can print.

However, as I understand it, their software should accept most file types.

Wulfbein: Thanks! I'm meaning to re-tackle the power sheet this week. I've had a few observations of my own, and suggestions from others that are all very valid. Hopefully, I can implement some positive changes and gain a little more space.

Hey Shado,

It's too big for me to upload here. I can send it to you but I'll need an email address. I don't have anyway of hosting it here.

I'll post it to my mediafire acct. if someone will send me a copy of the form (wpeacock AT gmail dot com).

Unfortunately I wasn't able to make the revisions to the Power sheet I had hoped to make by this point in time. (Work's been a little crazier than usual.) Really wanted to include those in this revision, but it would mean not getting the rest of the updates out to you all until sometime next week at the earliest, and I promised the first revisions this week. I really think my new direction is an improvement, and hopefully will be able to present those changes soon.

Thanks again to everyone who's downloading and using the sheets! Thanks for the compliments and criticisms! I really want this to be the best sheet out there and will continue to listen, and do what I can to improve.

As of the update, I was up to 500 downloads for the first version!

As much as I appreciate what others, Necros (spl sorry) in particular, has done with Char Sheets, your is my, and my players, choice hands down!!!

Simply put, you cant beat colour and with powers colour coded for 4E, your helps.

I really hope you take the time to get an extra character development sheet together. Again best job out there and far better than excel files imho.

Any chance that fillable version is still on the way? I have horrible hand writing, thanks.

Unfortunately, it appears that I need Acrobat Pro in order to make a form version, and I only have Standard.

Krocha, had a version made up from version 1 of the sheet, but I don't believe has posted it as of yet.

I am greatly impressed by your character sheet. Should I find myself with extra time I will make a fillable version as I do have Adobe Profession. Though it wouldn't be for another 2 or 3 weeks as I am very busy working on my new 4th Ed. campaign.
