IANAL

[You may reprint anything] published under the OGL/d20 licence that is strictly rules-related published by any company other than WotC (because part of the Open Game License explicitly states that all game mechanics are automatically Open Game Content).

From the OGL (emphasis mine):

)"Open Game Content" means the game mechanic and includes the methods, procedures, processes and routines to the extent such content does not embody the Product Identity and is an enhancement over the prior art and any additional content clearly identified as Open Game Content by the Contributor, and means any work covered by this License, including translations and derivative works under copyright law, but specifically excludes Product Identity.

I think this means that rules mechanics are OGC by default, but can be closed as PI. This assumes, of course, that the mechanics are entirely yours and not based on the SRD.

You can use the name "Sword and Fist" it's a quote dammit. And it's free publicity.

If it is for your gaming site, who cares.

I would not think that anyone would go after you. If you create downloads with improper information that starts to get around the web, then someone might say something. There are too many fan sites for them to care and it is good to keep people excited about your product.

Do what you want and pull it off after you get the letter telling you to get rid of it.
