"Marking" a target is a pretty generic term, for instance, and is used in a lot of games -- including the dreaded MMOs.I also don't know that WotC would particularly care to fight over someone trying to create a 4E version of Pathfinder any more than they worried about OSRIC -- they'll be focused on the new hotness. And since it seems likely that the online 4E support will be going away at some point, even the best 4E hard copy clone is going to have a harder road ahead of it than Pathfinder and OSRIC did.</blockquote>
