Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not bad, but...
Review: A good sheet to work off of, but you only get one copy of each class. Not worth the money if you don't have access to a photo copier or scanner.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great supplement easy to mix & match for various classes.
Review: A word of caution: you will need to make a lot of photocopies! The sheets DO come with permission to photocopy for personal use. I got mine and made 3 double sided copies for each class (11 - including Monks and Druids) and extras of the "blank" sheet (for multiclass charachters) along with copies of the magic item list, "companion animal" sheets and spell sheets (needless to say I used the company photocopier after hours).

Each character will need a class sheet (double sided) and magic item list (even fighters pick up Gauntlets of Ogre Power). Caster will need a spell sheet (some are double sided) and others (druids, paladins, sorcerers and wizards, oh my) will even need a "companion" sheet for familars and such (making some charachters need as many as 3 sheets (that's double sided, so actually 6).

The sheets themselves follow a logical progression of information for each class and while some may complain that the sheets do not properly support a multi classed character, I say that the better you get to know the 3rd edtion game, the better you will be able to make your own. But I definetly recomend these sheets if you are playing 3rd Edition for the first time (the one in the back of the PH is pitiful).

Summary: This is what I get for buying it all at once
Review: After saving up for a month or so, I purchased the Player's Handbook, DM Guide, Monster Manual, and these character sheets. Three out of the four were worth the cost.

These character sheets are a simple repetition of information readily available elsewhere, they aren't sturdily made, and they don't have nearly enough room for your stats.

If you really want to keep good record of a character, try Green Ronin's Character Record Folio. It's well worth the price.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Moderately useful.
Review: Alright,

Don't get me wrong, especially with Wizards of the Coast's (WotC) generosity of including the Character Generator CD-ROM with their Player's Handbook, but this character sheet accessory could have been much more then it is currently.

It does give you an excellent range; one, two-sided sheet for each class, one for multi-class, as well as spell inventory sheets for arcane and faith using classes (Wizards, Cleric, et al.); but with only one copy of each sheet it is obvious that you're going to have to make trips, various and many, to your local copy shop and make many copies of these sheets.

I would have given this a probable two stars, but the design and layout alone deserve three stars; or more; because of the amount of design effort it took to make a valuable resources as the charatcer both useful and detail it has to show you the new system and how all the changes work into the formatting of a character.

Overall a good idea with moderate implimentation, which should have, could have, been so much more.

The class sheet concept, an excellent idea, hasn't been fully seen in a D&D character sheet product since the 1st Edition, parchment sheets of the early to mid 80's; these sheets had the Oriental Adventure Classes in the product as well.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Deffinetly not worth it
Review: Before you make a mistake, please save your money and buy some chocolates or something useful (maybe some pencils or dice to play... yeah dice are nice). You're about to spend 10 bucks in copier paper and ink. Think about it.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Forms, Forms, Forms
Review: Blank character sheets for your photocopying pleasure. If you have the D&D Character Generator you don't really need this, but they produced it because people like me buy most everything they make (and because some people I hear, don't have computers). The forms are well layed-out but some cursory proofreading might have avoided at least one error on the Barbarian sheet (where they have the hit die listed as 8 rather than 12). Oops. That's what I get for buying something in its first printing I guess.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Dungeons & Dragons Thrid EditionPlayer Character Sheets
Review: Dear Readers I am writing this after my last D&D game I played (10 mins. ago) and we used the character sheets and I'm very impressed. Let me tell you. These Sheets are so extremely help full that it took 45 mins to complte our charactors. Plus it made it so easy to get started on our quest which was so hard we defeted up to 30 Dragons. Talk about fun time. This book was so help full EVERY D&D FAN SHOULD BUY THIS BOOK. Well got to go and play a new game see ya!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Pretty Good
Review: First and foremost, if you want to play Dungeons and dragons, you should get this book, but some people disagree. It is pretty good to have the sheets, especially if you already have a photocopier (becacuse they give you the right to copy the paper). I, myself, thik its cool to have the offical sheets and not a rip off of Wizards from the internet.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very well made. Essential for beginners
Review: For those of us that have been around a while, being able to photocopy these sheets is one of the best features. For those just beginning D&D, these sheets will help you organize your characters and spells. For those who are just starting 3rd edition, these sheets show you how to effectively track every bonus (the d20 system is all about bonuses), something that previous editions didn't have. There are things that I'd change, but I knew there would be. Buying the character sheets gives me time to figure out just what I will change when I design my own.

One more important advantage these sheets give to DMs. If you have a NEW player, this product will save you a lot of time in creating a charecter for him or her, especially if he or she is playing a spellcaster.

(A little white-out will fix the Barbarian sheet before you photocopy it)
