[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 4243746, member: 326"] Hi Alzrius mate! :) While never having played Exalted or even owned or seen any of the books, I am aware of it. But something as trivial as naming a tier I don't see as a challenge to their copyright. As for the naming of any future books, I won't be dropping the Immortals Handbook, because I don't plan on selling 3.5 material after I launch my 4E stuff. I'll stop the sale of my 3.5 pdfs whenever I launch my 4E material. Immortals Handbook is the brand I have created, it may not be much, but I like it. While technically you can create another brand and keep selling the old line, I don't think there is sufficient difference to make that distinction, so I can definately see problems arising if I try that stunt. You can't make a 3rd Edition Conan the Barbarian book and then change the 4th Edition name to 4th Ronan the Barbarian and redo all the same material, which is basically what you are suggesting. I think by the time I launch a 4th Edition book the existing 3rd Edition Immortals Handbook pdfs will have run their sales course. So the question is what 3rd Edition stuff I want to release between now and when I do something with 4th Edition. That may simply be the Gods portion of Gods & Monsters with elements of Grimoire, the Dimensional Magic rules and so forth as well as anything else I can think to squeeze in. The first 4th Edition book I do will be called simply the [B]"Immortals Handbook".[/B] [/QUOTE]
