I'm getting a 403 from HostGator when trying to download it.

I'm still optimizing the sheet (using Scribus 1.4) . So, any helpful feedback is welcome!
I think, it doesn't fold as nicely as intended. Have to give 5 mm to each of the stat boxes.

Link given above just sends me to the Downloads Page and even if I scroll to find Lars's sheet, that link goes to a error page.

Gah. For some reason, everything I received from the author saved without read permissions. I'm getting it fixed.
Also, I typoed the link in the first post, which I have now fixed.

That fixes it. This is good idea for a character sheet. The basics of play right there for beginning players. I like it.

And what do you make of the clever idea of a
foldable character sheet that allows you to write down character description, equipment, class abilities, names and contacts and stuff
on the inside of the sheet without littering the front with tables of things only a few characters might need? Nice, isn't it?
I'm going to work on the presentation of the Basic Game Mechanics, and mabye add an illustration, or dice symbols. I want to it to be as easy to read as possible, with all the necessary information (new) players need to play and enjoy the game.
I have a German version, as well, which I'm going to use with my players next session.
Feedback is welcome! And thanks, SmootRK, for your comment!

I just noticed, that there are some German words in the English Version of the document.

That is because I created the German version first and then translated it.
Just fixed it.
Chris, I'll send you an updated version tomorrow. I want to think about the Game Mechanics part again.

I just sent Solomoriah a corrected English version, the German version, as well as the Scribus data files (.sla) for people who'd like to modify the character sheets to suit their game.
Any feedback is welcome!

I would suggest space to write thief ability scores and cleric turning numbers below the text describing the mechanic. That way players who need the info can have it at hand, without cluttering up the main sections of the sheet.
About the sheet in general, I would not have thought of doing it this way but it is good.
