May I be the first to say, Bravo! That must have taken a hell of a lot
of work. May I suggest instead of comments telling people not to touch
the field, you lock the fields you don't want people to put things in. I
found it worked great on the Rigger Vehicle tool I made. An example of
it is here, http://www.shadowgames.us

It looks good, and I like the rainbow damage boxes. For my own part, I make
up a freeform excel sheet for chargen and have boxes to keep a running tally
of used build points. Then I copy and paste over to a standard Word document
template I maintain. But it's great that you've done this. Are you going to
list on RPG Sheets?

BTW, did you cobble in any referance to build points or priorities on your
sheet? I sheepishly admit I didn't take it for a test spin yet

August, anyhow, still, if you want it, tell me.

Play With Me


I tried to teach my child with books;
He gave me only puzzled looks;
I tried to teach my child with words;
They passed him by,oft unheard.
Desparingly I turned aside;
"How shall I teach this child!" I cried
Into my hand he put the key;
"Come," he said, "play with me."

After just using 5 seconds I noticed that you round the wrong way. Havng an
elf with Q 7 and I 6, gives a reaction of 6, where as you compute it to 7.
