    New GSL Announcement

    Yeah, funny, huh? Believe me, I will do everything in my power to do something. What that will be I dont know.

    New GSL Announcement

    Nope you are not wrong. That is correct. And, frankly, that is the plan of what I intend to do. I'd have to see the GSL to answer that. But it certainly seems possible. Hypothetically of course. I have no intent of doing that. We are 4E.

    GSL questions for Scott Rouse and Mike Lescault

    As others have said, it is very likely that the same restrictions (all noted above) from the STL and Guide will apply to the GSL (and perhaps more). That means: No miniatures No interactive games No applying effects of XP No character creation No violation of certain standards Etc. It also...

    New GSL Announcement

    I dont think anyone should be mad at Wizards either. Heck, the concept of letting us use their license is to help sell core books. In my view, this restriction--more than any of their other restrictions about content and sexuality and violence--actually aims right at the heart of that key...

    New GSL Announcement

    I dont have new 3E stuff on my mind at all. I am firmly 4E. I was just going to provide that as an accomodation to fans. Thats all.

    New GSL Announcement

    I'll admit, I didnt see this one coming. I figured no OGL and GSL content in the same product. That was kind of a no brainer. I have no resentment. I was planning on going 4E so it doesnt make any difference to me. And I can always go back to 3E if I want. They cant ever close that. As for...

    I dont know what the restriction is. One would imagine you get a reasonable sell off period.

    That's a good question. I dont know the answer.

    New GSL Announcement

    You cannot create both OGL/3E products and GSL/4E products, even if they are seperate products. You have to choose what you are supporting--3E or 4E. Paizo, for example, cannot create both 3E and 4E products, even if they are seperate products. Its one or the other. And that goes for every...

    New GSL Announcement

    I believe, in fact, that it is even a bit more restrictive than people are seeing. It is not just that you cant mix the two licenses in one product. It is that if you use the GSL you cannot also use the OGL for 3E products. In other words, publishers have to decide if they want to stay 3E or...

    GSL news.

    Come on, peeps. I'm not a moderator, but here we are in the thread about the announcement that 4E will be open. You gotta think we can put our difference aside and play nice in this thread. Naysayers shake hands with conspiracy theorists. 4E Fanbois shake hands with grognards. Paizonians...

    GSL news.

    Hey guys. I didnt mean for the first part of my post to get people off track. My goal with the second part of the post was to encourage people to not bother who were naysayers and so forth. Lets not get into finger pointing. Let's just be happy for D&D and for Scott and Linae's...

    Nope. That is a hard one. We're going to have to leave that one to wizards. Clark

    GSL news.

    It is awesome. Frankly, its what most of us wanted back for 3E. I think Scott "got it" one day when many of us were discussing the reason why everyone made OGL products. Because the d20 STL was irrelevant. The d20 logo lost its value to publishers because it no longer meant D&D. Once that got...

    D&D 4E "4E sucks" decry gnomes, half-orcs (humor)

    Nerd rage humor aside, if you want gnomes, half-orcs, druids, barbarians, monks, bards and "shire halflings" then you want our Advanced Player's Guide. Written by 4E insider and industry guru Ari Marmel. Keep an eye out for it. I dont know if we can hit the October 1 date, but we are going to...

    GSL news.

    Lets not get too much into revisionist history here. Some of the doomsaying was well founded. What was not well founded was the evil conspiracy nonsense. But there were some dark days along this road, some times were I believe it was possible that open gaming wasnt going to happen for 4E. But...

    GSL questions for Scott Rouse and Mike Lescault

    Scott. Thanks. :) And please tell Linae I said "thanks" too. ;) You guys really, really did great. I've had my faith and trust in you for so long. I am so glad to see this finally come to fruition. Clark

    Linae, Let me say THANK YOU to you both personally and publically. I know this was hard work and I am so glad you and Scott and all the folks at Wizards were able to make this happen. Thank you so much. Nice work! Clark

    Necromancer Games Goes 4th Edition! Planned Product Updates!

    No 4E Wilderlands is planned. But you never know... If Tegel is a run away hit, maybe we will reconsider.
