    D&D 5E (2024) WotC Announces April 22 Release For 2024 System Reference Documents

    Some of the parts were it matters to me and makes a difference are : How we refer to the 'not-new-edition': WotC seems to want to call it the '2024 revision of 5e' (if I even got that right), which leads to naming things like 'the 2014 revision of 5e', and 'the 2024 revision of 5e', which...

    D&D 5E (2024) WotC Announces April 22 Release For 2024 System Reference Documents

    Perhaps I got it all wrong here (I've been known to be wrong before) but didn't WotC clearly market 3.5 as a 'new edition' ? By the way, I'm not saying they shouldn't release a 'conversion guide', I actually think that it is a good idea and will definitely help people. I just think they should...

    D&D 5E (2024) WotC Announces April 22 Release For 2024 System Reference Documents

    Well that was sort of the point that I was trying to make (although perhaps I chose my words poorly): if it wasn't a new edition, there would be no need for any translation, now would there ? Oh, well, nevermind.

    D&D 5E (2024) WotC Announces April 22 Release For 2024 System Reference Documents

    Ah, I see. A 'conversion guide', because the 2024 ruleset isn't a 'new edition'. Got it.

    D&D General Hold Back the Dead - Free Digital D&D Adventure Coming 4th Feb

    True. Basically amounting to providing 'an email address' to them. Why does WotC quote/unquote 'need' my physical address, phone number, and 'payment' info to provide me a free product ? Yes, like I said before, I get why they do it (spoiler alert: more ways of advertising/selling their products...

    D&D General Hold Back the Dead - Free Digital D&D Adventure Coming 4th Feb

    It may be free, but they do still require you to provide your personal info (full name, physical address, phone number, etc.) to get access to it, which you may not have provided (yet) if you only have a (free) DNDBeyond account without having an (active) subscription. I get why they do it, but...

    D&D 5E (2024) REVISED Form-Fillable 2024 Character Sheet

    Thanks for the reply. I am talking about the field in the lowermost left corner of the first page of the sheet, which I encircled with red in the supplied screenshot.

    D&D 5E (2024) REVISED Form-Fillable 2024 Character Sheet

    Although I fully realize I'm pretty late with this note (and you might not even be following this thread anymore), but: When I look at the 'tools' section of the WotC default sheet with shrinking fields you made (on the bottom left corner of the first page), it appears there is enough room for...

    2024 D&D Character Sheets Available to Download

    The current version available on DND Beyond in the section 'D&D Free Rules (2024)' is also form-fillable, but the initial one was not. Perhaps they read the forums over here. ;)

    2024 D&D Character Sheets Available to Download

    I would stick to the amount of spells available as noted in the 2014 sheet version, even if only to account for the wizard. And also include 'level 0' (cantrips) on the list/sheet.

    2024 D&D Character Sheets Available to Download

    I do prefer that, yes. I was actually planning to still keep using that 2014 spell sheet even if/when our group switches to the new 2024 rules.

    2024 D&D Character Sheets Available to Download

    Huh. Looks like WotC quietly released an 'update' to the 'official' 2024 character sheets pdf, to be form-fillable after all (without telling anyone). Although they did choose to let the fields 'overflow' when the typed text is larger/more than the available space allows for (and the text is...

    D&D 5E (2024) REVISED Form-Fillable 2024 Character Sheet

    Hrm. Perhaps you're right. Based on the discussion in this thread, I just got the impression that (especially on the 1st page of the sheets), people wanted more information on there then the available room allowed for. Which in turn lead me to propose that a 3th sheet might be a good idea. Maybe...

    D&D 5E (2024) REVISED Form-Fillable 2024 Character Sheet

    Oh, just one more thing I would like to put forward, but... Would it be a good (TM) idea to - instead of trying to increasingly put ever more information on 2 pages - go back to 3 pages (like in the 2014 version) ? For example, I can imagine you could put the majority of the 'text boxes' (class...

    D&D 5E (2024) REVISED Form-Fillable 2024 Character Sheet

    But what about all those poor wizards, who now have to find a way to track their prepared spells by some other means than on the actual character sheet ?

    Yes, I actually do track the death saving throws on my character sheet.

    D&D 5E (2024) REVISED Form-Fillable 2024 Character Sheet

    Yes you could, but... When the (possible) remaining temp HP expire (because of a 'rest'), do you remember to subtract them from your current hp ? As a wizard, I actually had to use that part of the 2014 spell sheet far more than I would have liked. ;) And 'like' it to be a part of the sheets...

    @Gorck , regarding the 'unless you're a Wizard that knows a metric crapton of spells' bit : Yes, I am such a wizard, and do (and expect to further expand) have a number of spells approaching a fucktonne - or is that a shitload ? I am only a 4th level wizard currently, and already have : five...

    2024 D&D Character Sheets Available to Download

    Personally, I like having all my spells on a specific and separate 'spell sheet', like in the 'official 2014' character sheets (including but not limited to the 'damage' types). So for me, I wouldn't bother with trying to cram even more info on that first page of the new 2024 sheets (I hope this...
