3PP products under the 4E GSL...

[Daniel D. Fox]

Have any third-party products been published under the 4E license? I am looking for some examples, as I am in the process of finishing out my first publishing release, and would like to see a few examples of companies that have successfully published under the current version of the GSL.

Thanks in advance!

Anything released by One Bad Egg, and all (or most) non-adventure stuff by Goodman Games and all by Blackdirge Publishing iirc. Advanced Player's Guide by XRP. Also some of the stuff released by Alea (like the Noble multiclass).

Alluria Publishing have also released a few products in their Remarkable Races line. I believe that's GSL. Some companies use OGL to publish material for 4e like Adamant Entertainment, Mongoose (I think, with their Quintessential Wizard and Fighter), and LPJ Design.

Thanks for the mention, Jack. We at OBE are striving to be at the top of the 3PP mountain for 4e. We want to be this edition's Green Ronin. I should also mention that we take requests.

Not to be confrontational, but I assume that's only because you are not on their radar. The encounters, though very cool, a patently non-compliant--not the least of which because it is explicitly non-sublicensable. Can't tell whether you were aware or not, but I thought I would mention.

Those are free downloads, the GSL applies to sales, not fan distributed stuff.

I don't see anything about requests in that link. But I am tired and have a headache, so it might just be that.

No, Jack. The GSL applies to any published material. It is not limited to for-sale items. Granted, they may be lax with regard to freebies, but the license itself does not have that limitation.

Well, generally, it's our business philosophy, and specifically this: "We welcome the public, and want to collaborate with you." It's more clearly laid out in our products, all of which include the following:

We Are Listening! We want your feedback! This is a living document that needs quality feedback from fans of Dungeons & Dragons like you.

If we think we need to change something here in response to the feedback we get, we absolutely will, and we’ll post updates to this document whenever we can. Working together with fans like you is important to us. Come be a part of the Egg!

Rob's working on it. Though he did just have a baby -- yip! -- so that has delayed it just a bit. I've seen a draft of the full version. It's awesome. As a teaser: There's a level 29 daily power called collision cascade that basically lets you play pinball with your enemies. Soon.

Shows how you should never take advice on the interweb. I thought for sure published implied for sale. My bad.
