Well, Lejendary Adventure gamers just got word that one of the pillar's of the LA community and one of its publishers, Chris Clark has had all license rights pulled and "will have no association with it in the future."
There are folks that despise the retro-clone games, but all of them that I am aware of have Trademark Licenses that allow others to freely publish using their system. Nobody get shut out. In my eyes, they are perfect for those who game as a hobby.
Retro-Clones may not be the game of origin, but they are close enough for many of us.
So, thanks again to all you retro-clone creators for providing us with games that cannot be taken away from us (well, hopefully not!).

curious...it mentions Castle Zagyg. I thought TLG was releasing that for the C&C system.

Personally I find the idea of Gail Gygax holding the reins of Gary's cart a wonderful thing and think if anyone will be true to the man and what he was all about, it will be her.

I am inclined to agree. I know some people had been working on projects that may now never come to pass, but I like the idea of getting Gary's legacy under one roof, and think in the long run it's for the best. |

Hopefully many if not all of those projects can migrate to that one roof. |
