[QUOTE="Alzrius, post: 2415496, member: 8461"] Personally, I think that's a good idea. As you mentioned above, just having the names, stat blocks, combat information, and new mechanics (virtual size categories, density, feats), should be enough. On a personal note, I'd really like the new epic spell, new materials, and new weapon properties and artifacts to be OGC also. They're just too cool not to be. Even WotC made their artifacts OGC. CRGreathouse was right when he said that d20-compatible material constitues what I termed "non-original work". The fact that these monsters are d20 at all means you need to have this be at least OGL, if not d20. That alone though would be enough to fill the 5% minimum in the d20 License. I also think that having it be open for the official PDF release is a good idea. I don't mean to throw stones, but at the current rate of progress, I seriously wonder if 4E won't be out by the time the print IH arrives. That said, I really agree that "crippled content" is not at all the way to go. The IH is (I think) going to seriously set a new standard for epic gaming in d20, and it seems a real shame not to let the community take advantage of that. None of your IP would be taken, and they would have to credit your work. I'm honestly somewhat confused about why you wouldn't want this to be OGC? Realistically, almost none of the OGC out there gets used anyway. On a final note, did you get that email I sent you with some parts of the Bestiary that I felt were wrong (or was otherwise unsure about)? [/QUOTE]
