[QUOTE="paradox42, post: 4661071, member: 29746"] The GSL doesn't allow it- and among other restrictions it's why the majority of companies that have produced 4E material to date haven't [B]used[/B] the GSL. It's too restrictive and doesn't offer a publisher enough flexibility to be worth the trouble, and this is why WotC have been revising it, though apparently it's taking them a very long time to get the revisions out. Many companies producing 4E material have been using the OGL, which is what Alzrius suggested UK use; Goodman Games is one example he cited in the suggestion post. Some companies are also just using the fair-use provisions in standard copyright law (which being government-mandated is something that WotC- and more to the point Hasbro- can't stop no matter how much their lawyers might want to). Kenzer is apparently one using fair-use. [/QUOTE]
