I hear that. Our group played the same characters in several campaigns from 1979 through 1983. Some time in 1980 we found out that one of the players started his cleric at 7th level. His best friend played a magic-user and fighter of 8th level or so when the cleric was created and I suspect...

We played in the late 70s, early 80s with the LBB. It was a hoot. We rotated GM responsibilities. We all rolled characters until one of us rolled up an octegenarian (ok, that's an exageration) who mustered out with a scout ship. Lots of characters died during character creation. It was a...

Welcome aboard.

I did an actual dual class human. Did 10 levels of fighter, then changed classes to magic-user. The character was hard to kill.

They pay designers to write the stuff. If the stuff doesn't sell, you change your staff and until you have a team that does write stuff that sells.

The way you fix that is to write better adventure and setting books.

I guess I better get crackin' on writing some stuff using the original OGL.

That's where Americans go to get their US news. :)

Yes on trademark and not copyright, but there is a statute of limitations on bringing a lawsuit.

Agreed, but it's not like WotC vigorously protected that IP over the past 20+ years.
