This post is about the standard Character Sheet, the Expanded Character Sheet, the Campaign Tracking Sheet and The Game of Twenty Questions PDFs. All of them, except the standard Character Sheet, were updated on the 22nd of March 2019.

There are still problems with these new versions of the sheets though.

I find it strange that there aren’t both non-printer friendly as well as printer friendly versions of these sheets currently available to download. And this has gotten even more strange now with this latest update, since now half of the sheets are non-printer friendly and the other half are printer friendly.

Read below beside 22 Mar 2018 , to see what is strange with this latest update to the sheets.

I'm finding it really weird that we still don't have correct sheets available.

Has anyone else found anything else in these sheets that you think should be fixed or changed?

At the end of this post I have listed official FFG links to all the different versions of these four PDF-sheets.

And here is where you can find all the currently available official, free PDFs for the Legend of the Five Rings RPG: https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/legend-of-the-five-rings-roleplaying-game/ Go to the Support Section of that page and click on ”Player Resources” to see all the PDFs.

A little history of the different versions of these sheet-PDFs

To my knowledge there has been 3 times when these sheets has been updated on FFGs homepage.

11 Oct 2018 - These versions were all in a non-printer friendly format, with a light brown textured background. There were some formatting errors on the last page of the Expanded Character Sheet. (The right column isn’t centered, so it looks attached to the middle vertical line. And also the two ”brackets” that decorates the right side of that page is copied from the second page of the PDF, it should just have been one long bracket.)

Also the second page of the Campaign Tracking Sheet has a very simple format/look, which seems to be an error since this is fixed in the next version released.

There were some errors on the The Game of Twenty Questions-sheet. Under Question 1, Skill Increases (1), it should have said Skill Increase (1). Under Question 12, where is says Adversity (1), it should have said Anxiety (1).

12 Oct 2018 - These versions were all in a printer friendly format, with just a white background. The formatting errors on the last page of the Expanded Character and the last page of the Campaign Tracking Sheet were fixed.

However, the pages of the Expanded Character Sheet and the Campaign Tracking Sheet were mixed up. So to print out a complete Expanded Character Sheet you had to print out pages 2 and 3 of the Expanded Character Sheet PDF and page 1 of the Campaign Tracking Sheet PDF.

And to get a complete Campaign Tracking Sheet you had to print out page 1 of the Expanded Character Sheet PDF and page 2 of the Campaign Tracking Sheet PDF.

On The Game of Twenty Questions sheet there were some changes to Questions 7 & 8. The (+5) and (+10) after Glory Increase and Honor Increase were removed, which to me seems like an error.

These printer friendly versions replaced the old versions, so there was no longer any non-printer friendly versions of the sheets available.

22 March 2019 - Only 3 of the 4 sheets were updated this time, the standard Character Sheet wasn’t updated.

The new versions of the Expanded Character Sheet and the Campaign Tracking Sheet are now in a non-printer friendly format again. And it seems that these two PDFs are really old (9 Oct 2018). So this means they have the same formatting errors that first versions had. And I found at least one more error that the first versions didn’t have. On the top right of page two in the Campaign Tracking Sheet, instead of saying ”Session Number/Title:”, there is an Minnesota-adress.

The Game of Twenty Questions-sheet was updated again, still in a printer friendly format though. The error under Question 12 was fixed. But now the Technique Types symbols are missing under Question 3. Which to me seems like an error. All the errors for Questions 1, 7 & 8 are still there.

However, now two of the four sheets available are in a non-printer friendly format and two are in a printer friendly format.

the struggle is real with fixing a PDF's page order!

edit; they also managed multiple mistakes and typos in their 2 pages FAQ...

Have you tried sending an email to the customer service email regarding these issues?

The reason why I made this thread is so that people, both new and old, can find the most useful PDF-sheets to them. If they either want all their sheets to be in a non-printer friendly or printer friendly format. Or with as few errors as possible, and so on.

The sheets that were released on the 12th of Oct 2018, weren’t fixed for over 5 months, and now the new ones that are available, are even worse than the ones that were initially released on the 11th of Oct 2018.

Have anyone found anything else that is changed in the new The Game of Twenty Questions-PDF? Except that the symbols next to the Technique Types are now gone/missing, under Question 3?

English isn’t my first language, but is Question 11 correct english? ”What activity most makes your character feel at peace?” It says the same in the Rulebook, but shouldn't it say: What activity makes your character feel most at peace?

@Avatar111 Well, the sheets that are currently available have the pages in the correct order. But with more errors instead. And I know about the FAQ. I’m also wondering when it will be updated with all the new errata stuff that have been found, for the Core Rulebook as well as the Keeper Screen and Emerald Empire.

@Daeglan I haven’t emailed customer service. So if anyone else wanna do that, go ahead.

The previous version of the 20 question had a typo, I think "adversity" was written twice instead of "anxiety", anyway a small issue like that.

Other documents had mixed pages.

Both issues could have been fixed in 15 minutes.

Maybe there was other things, we always find new things!

I had missed the old error on The Game of Twenty Questions-sheet. Looking again now at the different versions, I’m finding a few new minor things. I’ll add all that to the first post then.

Out of curiousity, has anyone got any idea why the typo address is 172, 4th St. E, St. Paul, Minnesota?

If I read google maps right, that's the Twin Cities PBS studio. I could more or less understand if it was FFG's own address...
