What made me genuinely worried about the Mandorian/Mandalorian bit was the similarity of the names alongside the similarity of the race to what we ultimately learned ol' Boba Fett was himself, combined with the fact that I hear those guys are REALLY litigious. I don't think they're a direct rip-off or anything, so hopefully the worry's needless.

HA, honestly I never made the correlation, actually Mandorian name came from the Dredan Artist. Wasn't meant to be a ripoff, because I totally forgot about the Mandalorian. The Mandalorian homeworld, do you know the name of it? I am researching it now.
I'd like to be able to print mine too.

I was working on a comic with a Sci-Fi/Fantasy mix in 1989. This story had three dominant races within a galaxy/realm. One home world called Mandor was where I derived Mandorian from. The work was called TRIAD and is now known as DREDAN - long story. My motivation was to create a world where there are no boundaries. RPG is the best place for this, not my idea of a world where adventures take place, but yours. We just wanted to lay out the ground work. This is where Bryan came in. - RW
What about the Mandorian race did you find in conflict with Lucas Arts? Now you have me curious?Sounds too much like Mandalorians, I suppose. (?)
That's one of the first things I thought of when I started reading that race.
The free copy review has completed, we (Metal & Myth LLC) appreciate all the feedback we have received so far about our product and look forward to reading the reviews that have not been posted yet.
I wanted to thank the community and everyone that is involved with Pathfinder and the 3P's out there for continuing to provide quality products to enhance your own tabletop game.
A few notes about Dredan Realm of Metal & Myth:
We are not a full time publishing company and do not have the resources as some of the other 3P's. Having said that, Dredan was originally produced for the OGL 3.5 system and converted to Pathfinder when they released their compatibility license (much thanks to the Paizo staff for doing this wonderful thing). There are a few minor glitches that I did not catch after reviewing the full 235 page book for the umteenth time =). The wonderful reviews we received bad or good is helping us produce a much cleaner product for the community. Keep in mind, many statements were this book lacked the Pathfinder compatibility flair. This is trully a first attempt at combining Sci-Fi and magic in one complete setting. This isn't Pathfinder Modern, or Pathfinder Future, this is Pathfinder DnD with rules that we have created and playtested in our small area. Some corrections are being made (wonderful suggestions from the community) with a few details of the book I missed, and since I am designer, layout, formatter, editor, publisher and marketer on a part-time basis I will not get everything right, but we are striving to give you a ton of useful material to be used in your game. If you don't like a few of the rules in the setting great (that's what DM's are for), we just provided different options. This is a Sci-Fi tech heavy setting and does follow the Traveller20 (T20) system of rules that we have played for years. This project took us (Artist and myself) over 6 years to complete and it is definately a labor of love. However, at the price of $9.99 for a full blown PDF with over 235 pages of material to us it is well worth it.
One final note, we are not a full time publisher, but we love this community and if anyone likes our setting and has ideas, wants to become involved, send me an email, we would be happy to work with anyone to give you exposure to your ideas or put your talents to work, we are working on many small Dredan based projects in 2010. I have worked with full-time publishers and self-published myself so I would be happy to work with anyone who has ideas or wants to put their creativeness to use with us.
Sincerely
