Forked from: Is OSRIC the new in print "defacto" D&D?
This is a wonderful question. What can be done to get OSRIC into FLGS and other outlets. And why haven't some (all) of the bigger self described "old school" publishers started using OSRIC as a publishing platform (now that the legal question no longer exists)? Just calling something "old school" doesn't give page number references out of OSRIC or the OGL (a gold mine of goodness). Also, can anyone publish OSRIC or just Lulu?
Dire Bare said:I've heard good things about OSRIC, but "strong brand" is pretty relative. Within the nichey niche world of D&D clones, I would say so. But outside of that, no, not really.
Walk into your average FLGS and start asking for the OSRIC section or ask if anyone wants to start up a game using the OSRIC ruleset, and you'll most likely get a lot of blank stares.
