[QUOTE="Henry, post: 5132557, member: 158"] According to one source, OSRIC was released by poster PapersnPaychecks about the middle of 2006, and was in the works with poster Mythmere about a year or two before that. Solomoriah over on Dragonsfoot had released BFRP before that, and Castles and Crusades, maybe the first that could earn "old school inspired" status, was around, what, 2004. in the works since 2003? So the Old School stuff had really gained momentum by 2007, before 4E was officially announced later that year. Really, Swords and Wizardry was the only "old school" system I can think of announced after 4E's, announcement in '07. How about "old school" more refers to any product predominantly similar in mechanics to any edition of D&D prior to 3E? I'm sure there's some disagreement, but it's the only objective factor you can point to with all the fantasy games that are in consideration in this thread. [/QUOTE]
