Message: <blockquote data-quote="Whizbang Dustyboots" data-source="post: 8323693" data-attributes="member: 11760">He intends to sell a new edition of Star Frontiers. I mean, he won't, because he has shown no ability to get out games in the past, but it's his repeatedly stated intent. TSR 3 has used an image of a previous edition of the game, which is WotC property, at least once in the past already. They took action to block Black Hat from selling Star Frontiers in the past. I don't know why people are assuming they will let this one go.Your understanding of defamation is hazy, like you say, but WotC would likely have to prove that TSR/Ernie financially damaged them in some way in their complaints about the company to win a claim of libel or slander. I don't think that's a winning strategy, but I also don't think WotC would view their attacks as a problem. If anything, I'd expect a statement reinforcing their commitment to diversity and making everyone feel welcome at gaming tables. Ernie yelling that they're too diverse and care too much about people's feelings is a win.</blockquote>
