At some point, I intend to pick up the Savage Worlds Fantasy Companion, Savage Pathfinder (and the Advanced Player's Guide, Companion, and Bestiary), and Fantasy Age 2e. Afterward, I'll probably pick up some more 5e 3pp (including 5e Midguard books) and then the three 5e D&D core books.

Which also caught the attention of at least one major shareholder.

I wonder if Alta Fox's reaction to what was going on also had any influence. Was it last night or within the past few days (?), they were publicily mocking Hasbro/WOTC damaging M:TG and, now, D&D and alienating fans of both. So, who knows what was happening behind the scenes prior with...

Is there anything preventing WOTC to attempt deauthorizing the OGL v1.oa in the future?

Glad to see Kobold Press doing Black Flag. I wish they would also work with PEG to do something along the lines of Savage Pathfnder, but with regards to the Midguard setting.

Definitely Lord of the Rings. Thankfully, the only time it has been like Guardians of the Galaxy with any group, with which I have played, was back in 7th and 8th grade.

I found sitting through the trailer to be punishing enough.

Then, there is the excellent third party support. Agents of Oblivion, Beasts & Barbarians (Sword & Sorcery), Thrilling Tales 2e (Pulp), Mars: Savage Worlds (Sword & Planet), Fort Griffin (traditional Wild West), and Gaslight, to name just a few.

As a GM, when I run D&D, I tailor spell lists for clerics of each deity in my homebrew setting. As a result, most clerics either do not receive healing spellls or are limited in their ability to cast healing spells

Luke (?) at The DM Lair gave, in my opinion, a good explanation of what is going on. WOTC's strategy all along has been to get rid of the OGL. The initial "draft" (as WOTC refers to it) was designed to be completely unacceptable. They used it as an "anchor" (a psychological technique) to set...

@sigfried, is the "deauthorization" of the OGL 1.0(a) going to affect Everyday Heroes?

Hopefully, Ad Infinitum (Steve Kenson), Barrel Rider, Gallant Knight Games, Mage Hand Press, {OAP}, Kibbles Tasty, Sterling Vermin, Taron Pound, Tribality, Walrock Homebrew all join.

Dancy, the architect of the OGl, stated that the OGL 1.0a applies to more than just table top. If they did not want it to, they would have stated so back then.

But with the current OGL, nobody can use Wizards IP under the OGL. Using WOTC IP requires a different agreement (currently, the agreement to publish on DMsGuild).

Well toward the last portion, she does state that we need to keep the pressure on WOTC by cancelling D&D Beyond accounts and that we cannot trust anything WOTC says until they produce a written licence.

I have never run a WOTC adventure. I have not run a published D&D adventure since the early to mid 1980s.

I already had a list of official rules options, third party material (new classes, subclasses, a few spells , revised mechanics, etc), and a few of my own house rules prepared if I run 5e (same for 3e if I were to run it again). However, given everything going on with the OGL, I might be able to...

Classic, Plus, or Prime?

He can't. Spelljammer is IP and not Open Content. Thus, it can only be sold on DMsGuild, because WOTC has given permission to use Spelljammer for products sold on DMsGuild.

I have not run 5e, but my future plan was to use plenty of third party material from Drivethrurpg, DMsGuild, r/Unearthed Arcana, GM Binder, and some websites. As for non-core books by WOTC, I only planned to use some new feats and Fighter material (no new sub-classes) from Tasha's. This...
