4e Character Sheet

[bryant]

After too much time spent poring through forums for D&D 4e character sheets, I wound up with this one, which worked out great in play. The form-fillable version, by some new Adobe magic, allows you to save your filled out sheet. Handy.

The landscape one found here is also very nice — much more compact — but not form-fillable. Plus I really liked the power card holder on the previous one. Yeah, I assembled it. Rubber cement and scissors and all. It’s handy.

Oh, yeah. Five hour one shot, four combats, a smidge of RP. We were focused on system. It’s a quick little combat system. It feels like D&D to me; you’re rolling a 20 sider and doing damage. Certainly PCs are way more sturdy early on. Still and all, rolling d20s, rolling damage, all that fun stuff.

Combat was really mobile. Lots of shifting and hitting and movement. I kinda wanna play Sunless Citadel in 4e to compare and contrast. Maybe I’ll go write up Cian now.

Sunless Citadel

Kobolds are probably tougher in 4e. They want a rematch!

Or crossing the streams: Whitey Bulgur's men of action find a mysterious doorway into the Sunless Citadel.

A bit! They're more interesting for sure.

Four combats in five hours impresses me. How long did each take, in terms of numbers of rounds? How often were PCs dropping, and how often were they getting bloodied?

I think we ran no fewer than 5, no more than 10 rounds. Lots of PCs getting bloodied. We had the fighter drop once.

We did two days of gametime, two fights per day. The first fight on the second day was very short because we enthusiastically burned half our dailies immediately. I think we may have assumed it was the end fight.
