[QUOTE="Tigris, post: 9371277, member: 7043270"] Just some comments: 1. On the D&D 4E discord you can find a lot of working fanmade digital tools, so even if your laptop crashes you can get for example a character builder again. 2. There are also several fanmade implementations for 4E for virtual tabletops which you can find. Of course some fanmade tools is not the same as an official SRD. As for an SRD, its not the same, but Orcus the 4E retroclone is quite close to an SRD, although it uses different classes. The base mechanics had sometimes to be renamed but at least for the rules it works as SRD: [URL="https://github.com/Sanglorian/orcus"]GitHub - Sanglorian/orcus: Orcus is a retro-clone of 4th Edition[/URL] As for an official SRD: What I would want more than that, would be just a good license, which makes it easy to make actual 4E material without jumping through too many hoops. (For me especially for revisions for weaker classes which I made, but which I cant put into any really official or working for, so they only exist on reddit) On what would be needed for an 4E SRD [LIST] [*]The basic rules, what is already in the Orcus SRD [*]The 4 core classes from the 1st Essential book up to level 20 [*]The base races from the 1st Essential book [*]The feats and paragon paths from the 1st Essential book [/LIST] At least that would be my guess, that if they make an 4E SRD, they would just make the first Essential book "Heroes of the Fallen Kingdom" into the SRD. It has what you need to basically play and not really more. (No rituals, no character themes, simple useable feats). I would definitly not expect a d20 or foundry module drop. They really dont care enough about 4E. Several books on Drivethru which could have print by demand dont have it... [/QUOTE]
