[QUOTE="Scribble, post: 5668682, member: 23977"] I like your idea (smaller stat blocks are easier to keep track of...) but I think you have to be careful with how you do it. (I think they did a good thing with the newer statblocks, making use of empty space up top and what not.) Unfortunately I think with your examples some of the stuff you put together ends up making it feel cluttered. It forces my eyes to wander around slightly longer to find what I need because some stuff just isn't related. (I don't really need languages for instance when I'm looking for initiative or speed.) Slightly longer isn't the end of the world, but it ads up... especially at say 10:30 in a Friday night, after a beer or two. :D I understand the idea behind eliminating the action point thing, but I tend to use that as a thing to cross off when they use the action point (and sometimes it reminds me they have one.) I also understand the idea behind condensing the explanation of the powers, but I think you have to think about how it will be read in the "thick of things," as well as how the rules lawyer looking for any possible out will read into it.
