Nor do I hold the whole Open Gaming gig dear.I am disapointed that the GSL is apparently worst for exactly the kind of module it's apparently supposed to enable: namely it sucks for adventures, and campaign settings. You can't reproduce stat blocks and you can't reference half the monsters; and you can't even reference by page number (albeit for good reason). I can just about see why they wouldn't want monster stat blocks reproduced, but why - on earth - won't they allow you to reference all the monsters? That just makes no sense.And I think the terms of the GSL are actually abusive; in that they give a completely uneven and unreasonable balance of power. This would not be hard to fix: a guarantee of six months grace on non-violation termination, a guarantee that any product already in production will not be revoked under changed terms of the agreement, simple things like that.The OGL killer stuff is pure sour grapes thinking, and completely unneeded. Probably even harmful. I think 3/4 dual stated products from 3rd parties would help bring more gamers to Wizards fold.Still, it's a minor side show to the central game. And 4th Ed in general is most impressive.</blockquote>
