That's a damn good deal.

Those look like buildings by Miniature Building Authority. Like this one: Miniature Building Authority Guild Hall, 25mm European Buildings, 10182

So, while I was at school today I popped into the law library and grabbed a copy of Epstien's Drafting Licensing Agreements (Drafting License Agreements, Fourth Edition - 0735533792 - 9780735533790 - Kluwer Law International) hoping it would shed some light on why the clause is included and...

Hmm if parties can derogate from the common law rules around choice of venue or choice of law, why can't they also do the same thing with another common law doctrine? I can draft a contract there that sets the venue as BC but the choice of law to be UK or US or French if I like - I've...

That's a very good point. A quick google search though shows that this appears to be a standard clause in the US. I wonder if this has been litigated. Could it possibly estop a party from raising the issue in pleadings?

Yeah, it sort of evolved out of the OGL / OSRIC licensing discussion. But I can swing the conversation back round that way by looking at the GSL - there are clauses in the GSL specifically designed to prevent another OSRIC jurisdiction issue and to circumvent the common law doctrines around...

Up north here the test we use is: “Where a claim is made that a bargain is unconscionable, it must be shown for success that there was inequality in the position of the parties due to the ignorance, need or distress of the weaker, which would leave him in the power of the stronger, coupled...

I have found that the pathfinder srd having all the rules content online or in pdf has made me more willing to purchase print products. I prefer reading books but hate carting them around to game.

The way I had it explained to me is that there are two competing currents in the law. The first is that people are intelligent rational beings, deserving of respect and independence. If an adult makes a decision or takes an action, they should be held to the consequences (good or bad) of their...

I'm fine with regulations that offer a level playing field in consumer interactions - requirements for plain language in a contract, contra preferentum, making shrinkwrapped licenses that you can't review until after you pay money non binding etc.. But as long as the terms of a deal are clear...

British Columbia. @tenkar - yeah he was being very open and informative in that thread. S'mon "an unfair term shall not be binding on the consumer" -- Gaaaah. Unfair in whose eyes? Nanny-statism!

Stuart Marshall talks a little about OSRIC's strategy around jurisdiction, tables and formulas and the OGL in this post over on tenkar's tavern. I've linked to the most relevant one, but you can scroll up and down and see more. Tenkar's Tavern: Is Wizards&#39 Latest Cease and Desist an...

Pathfinder beginner box is not a loss leader: [Poll] Are you interested in the Pathfinder Beginner Box as a seperate line? [Archive] - RPGnet Forums " Erik Mona 10-25-2011, 06:55 PM We plan to make a profit on the Beginner Box. While we have a slightly lower profit margin on this product to...

They've never said the 4 minis were going to be in the box, its been tokens since the start. Also, they announced the beginner box well before they announced the wizkids minis - they've been very careful to avoid the impression that the box came with minis.

"Familiarity with Wizards products a plus particularly Duel Master" What does duel master have to do with the D&D brand? Is this a copy paste error from an old job ad?

Thanks for the follow up!

Could you expand on this for those of us not in the publishing business? The bookscan people claim they have point of sale coverage for the major book chains and (probably more germane to rpgs) Amazon, two of the areas that the ICV2 survey does not cover. It would be really nice to see what a...

Another available point of data is one company flat out stating that their sales are higher. Again, not perfect information, same sort of things can be discussed (how do they know, are they mistaken, how long will they, release cycle, yadda yadda yadda).

Paizo uses Bookscan to track their sales (and the sales of competitors) through amazon and through other retailers. Apparently they have very good data on sales numbers. Lisa Stevens and co don't have to rely on amazon rankings and a summary of ICV2's report when they that say they are...
