    An improvement over previous models to be sure. Still, it does seem a little busy and over complicated. It has about the same amount of info as a RoleMaster sheet. Is it necessary to have 32 spaces for skills?

    Nicely done.
    "War is an ugly thing but not the ugliest of things; the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feelings which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."

    Well some people like lots of skill space. I certainly do, and my own ICON sheets follow a similar pattern.

    How many skill line ?

    All skill name pre-entered or free fill space ?

    For now I fix this sheet to:
    -3 PAGES

    -LCARS DESIGN IS IMPORTANT
    -40 lines for skill (free fill)

    I'm expecting lot of reply to adjust this parameters...

    1)I don't mind the LCAR set up. As long as the design is minimalist, like ICON.

    2) Again as long as it is simple, colour. If you need a lot of info, then B&W.

    3) Personally I like one page front and back, if I need more space I can always staple a blnk sheet on.

    4) I like Just enough for the character to seem whole, for extra RP material see above.

    5) Having given some thought the number of skills on the above sheet is okay, given that it fits onto the one whole page format.

    6) Does "pre-entered skill space" fit into CODA? I haven't picked it up yet.

    My reply:

    Personally I find the current sheets all too "busy" looking. Too many colours, too many bells & whistles.

    I would like to see a clean, serviceable black and white sheet with room to add extra skills, as many people seem to take extra skills (say 10+ blanks beyond the normal skill list) in one area and none in another.

    I think a two-page character sheet is more than long enough. Once you go beyond 2 pages you have to do a lot of hunting during a session.

    Just some thoughts

    You did all that...? For li'l ole me?

    Actually, layout-wise, I quite like it! It is a little busy in places, and it doesn't print that well in black and white (but that could just be my printer settings). Most of the data seems to be where I'd want it, and I like the skills page.

    The spelling could do with a little work, but then I guess you're a French speaker, so we can make allowances

    Whichever way you look at it, it's a vast improvement over the official one!

    Where is PSI???

    Very nice layout, but PSI is notoriously Absent. Thoughts?
