Ben Cordes DND5 cheat sheet


Ben Cordes DND5 cheat sheet

Originally shared by Stan Shinn

Here is a 5e rules summary in both landscape and portrait formats. First two pages I print out and hand to players (I use it as a DM as well). Third page is more oriented towards the DM. Basically I run 90% of my games using ONLY the rules on these three pages; seldom are there rules used which aren't summarized here.

Works great on tablets, as printouts, or (if you have good eyesight) as inserts to customizable GM screens.

Let me know your comments. I'll make this a living document and edit it to correct any issues, or add any big misses.

  2. Remember in the 80's when everyone programmed D&D die rollers/combat helpers on whatever machine they had?  Good times.  Also an 8th level fighter could take on over 100 orcs and not take a scratch.

  3. ... that might or might not still be happening. I have some ideas for a Ruby-on-Rails website I want to put together...

    Also, now that I'm looking at that on a real monitor, that is super awesome for gameplay. Reminds me a bit of the Apocalypse World move sheets, which I suppose is kind of the point.

    Mostly what I've been spending my time on is character creation charts, plus the spellbook - trying to recreate a quick reference, like the 3e rules used to have, where you can get the gist of a spell in one sentence.
