In a case where somebody is using the mark to denote roster creation software, they have no choice but to defend their IP. In a case where somebody uses the phrase "army builder" in a generic manner or to describe the function of a piece of software not related to Army Builder®, there is no...

The saddest thing about this mess is I've been meaning to give up on my spread sheets and purchase Lone Wolf's Army Builder® for a while now. I've tried the demo and V3 looks very cool. I'm willing to drop cash on software for gaming if it's something I see being useful and functional. Campaign...

The new Drizz't novels are all 4E.

Ship, sail, horse, barn, and all that. Pathfinder, M&M, and now Savage Worlds have become my RPGs of choice. I still like 2E, though.

:confused: Are we remembering the same event? :hmm: :-S

The Pathfinder PDF was the best ten bucks I ever spent on gaming. Now, hard copies of everything has become a necessity for me simply because I like the system and want the hard covers.

I may be younger than you, but I started playing three years before you did. :P My parents didn't pay any attention to the games I played. When some parents went crazy over kids playing D&D, my mom figured I must be doing something good.

My parents didn't play, but I started when I was 14. I'm 46 now.

That is a bit of a drag, but I believe the intent is to support only core rules of the game with the character builder. This keeps a common framework for the database and since this is an internet based offering, it would be difficult to allow such customization without a lot of work on the base...

It was uncool in the 70s, too. That's okay, though, because wargaming was uncool in the 70s, too. I did both and was an uncool total geek.

Games Workshop is much much larger than WotC. The marketing model demands support of over 300 retail stores globally where they realize approximately 50% of their sales resulting in 1000+ employees worldwide. In 2005 it was reported to be 3200 employees, but they've closed omse stores since then...

Wargames Foundry has several civilian lines for several different periods.

City System and Castles, both great products.

Neat flowchart, but diaglo breaks it at "Which Edition?". :D

Dwarvenforge has some pre-painted stuff, but really, if you want a wide variety, you'll ahve to learn how to paint.

Other. I walked into a hobby store in 1977 and saw this little white boxnamed "Dungeons & Dragons. Asked the store owner what it was and he said "a game" The box said it was for Fantastic Medieval Wargames Campaigns, and I was into miniature wargaming at the time, so I bought it (already ahd...

I can certainly understand why WotC doesn't define the line. All it means is each fan with a fan site has to decide how much work they are willing to put into the site when they weigh it against the risk of being sent a C&D.

There's a definite problem with this line of reasoning. Sure, it's okay up to a point, but there is no known definition for that line. For example, should a fan develop some innovative technology to aid in game play and it's on their 4E site being given away for free for use with 4E, WotC could...

In 2E we call those "Wizard Spell Cards", "Priest Spell Cards", "Deck of Psionic Powers", and "Deck of Magical Items". Heck, I even use the two sets of "Deck of Encounters" whenever the players go off track from the adventure I prepared and I need to DM by the seat of my pants.

I was entering data into the Core Rules 2 CD-ROM + Expansion software just last night.
