New CB Character Sheet Shots

They're OK. Certainly a lot better than the "page full of black boxes" that is the current sheet, but I think they may have crossed that line where artistic creativity just starts to lose you. EX: I don't like how equipment is aligned to body parts making it all weirdly stacked.

Yeah they look kind of weird to me too... Not sure whey they had to alternate like that... It looks awkward.
 

I'd like an option to turn off certain sections, or to make it so stuff won't display if it's already factored into your stats. Like, I don't need to know that I get an extra feat and skill for being a human. It's already listed on the first page.

It might be pedantic, but I prefer character sheets to fit on a single sheet of paper.
 

Overall, I like it.

Does anyone know if they will allow the ability to move around sections of the character sheet like they did in the old CB? I don't recall seeing that in the QA they did concerning the online one.
 



Love the powers. Im sick of asking players a question about the details of a power to have them struggle to interpret. Hopefully this will clean it up.

Is there any word on how configurable the character sheets are (i.e. how much we can edit layout)
 

Be more interested in seeing what a Paragon or Epic level character looks like and how many pages they run to.

The character pictured is 11th level.

(One issue I have is that the Paragon Path's Action Point effect isn't listed with the Action Point effect/tracking area.)

Higher level characters shouldn't use up much more space, since for the most part you replace powers instead of gain new ones after that point. And there's plenty of room for more feats.
 

Pretty big letdown IMO.

Feats get more space, but are still lacking in info- yes action surge gives you a plus 3 to attacks when you spend an action point, but for how long?

Having only the total numbers and none of the math saves space, but loses a lot of functionality.

Ordering powers by level and not type is awkward.

My players also really like the little card section that has your skills and stuff on it in the powers section, so that will be missed.

Some of these things could possibly be toggled options, but we'll see I guess.
 

Dang, I was hoping with the extra space that it'd go into more detail on features.. but it still just has general statements like "Random resistance each day, pierce that resistance" without giving the numbers, so you still need to write it down manually...
