[QUOTE="aramis erak, post: 8170690, member: 6779310"] Funny, but FFG is making enough off theirs to keep the line going. Hero isn't exactly doing great, but it's not doing nothing and is still profitable. EABA has a niche audience that loves it. Nocturnal is continuing to publish WEG's 3 flavors of d6 system electronically. Chaosium (which overlaps Nocturnal leadership-wise) still sells BRP at a profit. Savage Worlds is paying the bills. Apocalypse World has supported dozens of adapted cores. Palladium is still selling adapted cores and rifts sourcebooks. Fate sells widely in adapted cores, plus has a generic core. Cortex Plus had several adapted cores, and a monolithic core; Cortex Prime is a universal core, but will have adapted cores for licensed properties... It's also a direction they could not go, because of prior contracts between SJ and Howard Thompson... GURPS was literally built to be as close to TFT as would not get Howard suing SJ. (See [I]Roleplayer[/I], Issue 1) It's only become available since the copyright recovery was added in 2014. Howard didn't put it back in print between notice and the recovery date, and so SJ was able to reclaim his own works - that's a few of the solos, plus Wizard, Melee, ItL and ITL. The best solos IMO are not his, tho' [/QUOTE]
