T6 - Excel-Based Character Builder
Posted: Fri Apr 29, 2011 3:44 pm
All,
Attached is my personal character builder. I created and use this for my home game and thought it might be something others could hopefully find useful. There are 4 different flavors of character sheet(including Ron Blessing's popular version) and an additional player help sheet that can be printed as well.
*Edit - I dont see my attachment so here is a link:

There are a couple known issues:
1 - If you use the local or web image fields and go to the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th character sheets, the file size will jump to 10+ mb. Very strange. Until I get time to fix that I’ve just been saving my heroes before going into those tabs. Then you can enter them, print the character sheet, then quitting without saving.
2 - In my game to make it a bit easier on myself, in regards to Special Attack and similar powers, Range/Area/etc is always purchased in addition to the base power but is at a cost of 1pt less when it is a given descriptor for the power. It should work out the same. An example would be for American Wonder's Star Bolts. Special Attack 5(Mid Range, X6 Damage). In the builder you would create it as a Special Attack 3 and Mid Range under descriptor. It still comes out to cost 5 points. You also will manually add the damage multiplier to the associated ability score yourself since this can vary between Brawn and Mind.
That's about it. I hope it helps some folks out.
