[QUOTE="Cergorach, post: 49543, member: 725"] This is exactly why i started this thread, in my experience CC always presented itself as a conversion site. Never using the OGL or D20 liscence, but instead using the words of Jim Butler to publish their conversions as a fan effort. Now Necromancer Games is going to publish part of the CC as it's own product, part of that product is converted from WotC copyrighted works, i think that's going against some copyright law (should look into that one). On the other hand, if we are talking about original monsters/rules/stats, that's a whole different story. I really want this to work, but i see so many sinkholes along the way. If Necromancer Games sets a dangerous precedent it might let loose some more unscrupulous publshers... This alleviates some of my worries, two companies that big actually communicating... WOW!!! I don't know if you can talk about it, but what's WotC's take on the CC? Kinda curious... I just wish more companies had the altruistic ideas as Necromancer Games has. "Don't care if this makes any money, it's just so kewl!" Damn, i want that ;-) [/QUOTE]
