Ah, that old chestnut. To explain, Eyebeams is thoroughly ignorant of the fact that Mongoose staff are among the best paid in the industry. He is completely unaware that, being based in the UK, they _have_ to be.

You need a section 15 for each entry, for best effect - surely it is easy to have a link on each page that points to an OGL page, with a custom section 15 on each that relates to the entry in question? No web site wizard, but it seems to me a that a simple database can handle that :) Oh, and...

Cute :) Not too fussed about the name, not too fussed about hosting, though the offer is there. The only real stipulation is that (aside from the usual section 15) there are links back to our site. Also, a big picture of me on the front page would work well on the ego front, but then we can't...

Okay, then chaps, it looks like we have a direction of sorts :) What I would like to happen is this. . . Get together and figure out who should be leader/main point of contact for us - we will need to funnel files to just one person, so we can watch what is going on. That person can change...

I can't imagine the storage requirements would be particularly large, if it was all kept text-based (we can talk about art if this gets off the ground :)).

This Saturday (the 21st) is Free RPG Day. All over the world, gamers will be able to go to retailers who have joined the programme, and pick up exclusive RPG swag - absolutely free! As part of this worthwhile initiative, Mongoose Publishing has produced Book 0: An Introduction to Traveller...

We have - the Ultimates contained a great deal. The 1st Edition B5 RPG had its space combat system based on FFG's Dragonstar. . .

I am going to call you up on that one :) The sheer amount of OGC material released by third parties could sink WotC's Open Content boat. The OGC material of some publishers alone (say, us :)) could have a serious go at that. I'll go one step further. Some publishers are _still_ producing...

But you can't have it both ways :) On the one hand, you have raised an opinion that the PPH was rude and disrespectful. On the other, we have been talking about 3rd parties hoarding their own Open Content. So, which is it? :) If 3rd parties should give up their Open Content (and , yes, they...

Being candidly honest (!) for a moment, when we first heard this idea, we weren't wild about it - but you have to understand the position of the publishers at the time. The D20 market was very competitive back then, and there were companies literally fighting for their lives. By way of example...

Yeah, they did - at least, well enough for publishers of our sizes. And well enough for us to do the same with Traveller at some point (but then, there is the whole Little Black Book thing going on anyway).

Thank you, Lizard. It was that quoted line that kicked us off on the project - the kind of thing that makes you sit down and wrack your brains thinking 'right, just _how_ can we do this?' :) I was amazed that no one else had done it up to that point. Still, as they say, the simplest ideas are...

Hi guys, There is (predictably) a lot of talk at the moment about 4e and the GSL. At Mongoose, we are currently going through the fineprint to determine whether the products we planned specifically for 4e (no conversions of older books are planned) are still viable. However, I wanted to...

I am sorry, but I could not disagree more. WotC stated, on their web site, that a publisher could, in effect, reprint the PHB and, if they could find a profitable way of doing so, more power to them (in effect). We found a way. On a wider front, I would be _amazed_ if our pocket book had any...

We just wanted to make a quick note as to the current mail order situation with Mongoose, for both miniatures and books. MINIATURES The last call for Babylon 5: CTA miniatures was huge. Not just large, but an order of magnitude or more than we were expecting. We guessed we would receive a few...

Perhaps no title in the Conan range has been as long awaited as this one - the Bestiary of the Hyborian Age. Packed full of the worst nightmares Conan himself ever faced, this book provides a repertoire of beasts, animals and monsters with which to challenge players and foil their ambitions...
