Orcus Update on GSL & 4E

Can't really say I'm that surprised even though he is one of 4E's biggest boosters. I only hope this means we eventually get some more 3.5 / Pathfinder goodness.

Damn,

Sorry to hear Clark's stuck in Limbo. As much as I want 3/x necromancer stuff to continue, I hate to think about the bottom line of necro as a whole being in limbo.

[Haldir]

It sucks that you can't do both. Have one of your lines do just 4e stuff & then a separate line do 3.5 stuff. That would make sense to me. I guess Wiz doesn't want companies intermingling systems & such. Sucks really.

Just curious....was anybody else the 10,000th visitor?

[Bill Mead]

Necro is not in limbo. I read the entire post and Orcus was very clear more than once, either there will be a change to the GSL or he will support Pathfinder when its time comes. Either way, he was attempting to notify the fan base that Necro would not be producing anything until one of those two conditions were met.

Hey Heath, I am frequently the 10000th visitor to many sites, especially if I am visiting for the first time....hmmmm...

This is interesting...

Good for Ari, but I thought he was working on that (or something similar) for Necro?

Clark talks about the Advanced Players Guide here, linked from the Necro board.

I gave the manuscript back to Ari for the APG. Since we cant use the GSL as is, I wanted him to have the chance to publish it elsewhere. He did me a favor by writing it, I wanted to return that favor.

That said, you may have caught wind that WotC is going to revise the GSL. They havent tipped their hats as to what they are doing, but I have been talking with them and if they adopt the things I have requested, it will likely mean that Necro WILL support 4E. Which would likely mean that Necro and Paizo will team up for some juicy 4E goodness.

But we will have to see...

For Curiosity's sake, Clark... If the revised GSL allows for it (the way I've been led to understand it wouldn't in v. 1.0) would Necro also be looking into supporting Pathfinder after it releases next year?

You're not the only one, Heathy. It happens on all the Yuku boards. I hang out a lot at Monte's site and I've been the 10,000th visitor 4 times. I feel so special.

A Xmas gift it would be.
