Iron Lore to Iron Heroes

DonTadow · May 27, 2005

I just wanted to make sure. Is the official name of the Iron Lore book now Iron Heroes? Why did they change it?

Legal snafu, at least from some company named Iron Lore Gaming or something like that.

Even though the name isn't IP, it was semi-set for trade marking.

I know very little about this product, but IMO the name "Iron Heroes" sounds 100 percent better than "Iron Lore" (the latter sounds like a manual for weaponsmiths).

Good point there. I missed a lot of the early threads about Iron Lore because I thought it was a book about weapons or something that I would have no interest in.

You aren't the only one.

Thanks, that makes me feel a lot less dumb. The first Iron Lore thread I actually read was full of people in depth debating this stuff like they knew what was going on and I was totally lost.

And the former sounds like a brand of cereal, but I agree it's an improvement.

EDIT--Now we just gotta get someone to sue over the inappropiately-named "Archer" and "Hunter" classes.

I think "Iron Thews" would have been best.

6 minute abs?

Oh, wait, that would be a different IP legal battle.
