Would providing a character sheet count towards the page limit, assuming it does not express any information not already expressed in the rules?

D&D: Greatest Hits First Milestone It's very incomplete, but should give some sense of where I'm going. I was very busy this week, but will have a lot more time this coming week. I am concerned about the text limit. Not sure if I'll be able to put everything I wanted to put in, and what I do put in will probably be very dry, with little besides mechanics.

D&D: Greatest hits Rules/character sheets Text length proof Hopefully I did the length right; it's a little ambiguous in my game what is rules, and what is "character sheet counting as image". I have literally a few words to spare on text length. I definitely underestimated how much text I'd need, so I had to strip out a lot of what I'd originally outlined. In particular Specializations (out entirely) and Skills (now a much simpler version). I think it does the core of what I was trying to do, which was condensed a 4E-style game, but "Greatest Hits" is probably a misnomer now, considering how little there is from older editions. As I suspected would be the case, I didn't have any room for much of any fluff at all, so it's a pretty dry expression of mechanics.

Alien Rope Burn posted:Also, what's the due date for playtests? I assume it's the end of the month, but I couldn't find it stated clearly anywhere. Here it is: Ulta posted:6. The format of the contest should be familiar to you all now. Outlines will be due Feb. 3 at Midnight GMT. Part 1 will be done Feb 10th Midnight GMT, Part 2 will be due the 17th Midnight GMT, and the final play test must be in by Feb 28th Midnight GMT Question for Ulta: I plan to do an audio recording of my playtesting session, and I'd rather not post it publicly. Is there a good way for me to send it to you short of buying the Platinum Upgrade for PMs?

D&D: Greatest Hits Here's the final version. Text length doc. I playtested with my regular game group. I've sent an audio recording to Ulta for full review, but to summarize, I think it went pretty well. Damage and HP seemed to be balanced about right, the players had significant tactical choices to make during combat, but combats were still quite fast, ability checks worked well enough for non-combat stuff, and everyone had fun with it. I think it definitely played like a boiled down 4E, which is mainly what I was going for.
