iCards - Initiative Cards

[graylion]

I have been using this type of initiative card since 3rd edition. I have now modified them for 4th edition.

I have uploaded 3 excel sheets:

01. iCards 4 per 8.5x11 page
02. iCards 2 per 8.5x11 page
03. iCards 1 per 4x6 card

I am using the 1 per 4x6 now in my current game. I have stumbled across a 100 pack of hp 4x6 photo paper cards for laser or inkjet printers. I load one in my printer and print one for each party member and several blank ones for the creatures.

Please let me know what you think.

Regards

I like them. Going to use one for my LFR character at our next session, and maybe give the files (if it's ok) to the DM as well.

Downloaded these about a month ago and just got around to looking at them. Awesome. Just a quick ?.

Do you have to fill out each sheet or is there a master sheet that makes the rest?

TIA,
Tim

Great init card, Graylion, but are you sure you want to have a bunch of full names and e-mail contact addresses on cards you're handing out to random strangers??? If those are valid, it looks like you've handed out personal info for your entire group!

If that's dummy info, though, please disregard this message.

I use Monster Generator to create stat cards for monsters, combined with the Character cards from the character generator for the players to track initiative. It works the same as the cards you have above, just a bit faster for those that have access to DDI apps.

Some monsters don't lend themselves very nicely to cards, often controllers have too many powers to fit nicely on a card...these require a little work, most fit great...I made an app to auto scale and put these on a nice background for me and print the either in 4x6 format (if I want to actually spend $0.10 for two cards) or 2x4 so I can fit 8 cards on a printer sheet. I haven't adapted it to do 3x3 (like character generator does), but that may be the most efficient use of paper.
