Fallout d20 no more

[ Game -> Update ] - More info on <a href="#Fallout d20">Game: Fallout d20</a>

I just wanted to pass along a quick update regarding <a href="http://www.gluttoncreeper.com/" target="_self">Glutton Creeper Games</a> and Fallout d20. From the GCG <a href="http://www.gluttoncreeper.com/page3.html" target="_self">website</a>:<blockquote>June 19th, 2007: We have finished the conversion of the Fallout d20
project to another Post-Apocalyptic PnP setting that encompasses the
South-West of the United States (to include New Mexico, Arizona,
California, Northern Mexico, Utah, Nevada. We have let this generic
enough to use in any setting, but have added a new storyline that is
based off events that started in 1939, altering the history of the
world ever so slightly until 2012, when the mother of all wars begin,
and man is forced to retreat from his own destruction... 


We have commissioned new art to replace the Vaultboy images and
screenshots from the Fallout games and the cover is being altered to
remove the Fallout IP. With some luck, we should have everything in
place and ready for print by August.



When our new site is up in about a week, we will anounce the title, as the logo is being created during this stage.


As for the Bethedsa/Interplay issue, our laywer is still awaiting
the validity of their claim that our Fallout PnP License is invalid.
Neither provides us with 100% proof, just giving us their statements
are truth.


We are 90% done with the conversion (just the background history is
left), staying in that general PA feel of the Cold War. Our history
starts in 1939 (War World 2) and major events take place during the
Cold War to shape the history until the end. More to come, as we are
fleshing out the history. We have also named our changed product, which
will be announced on the update of our website in the next week or two.



Post Apocalyptic d20 (working title) - Coming Soon



Since the fallout of our prior project, we at GCG are converting that
project into a Post Apocalyptic d20 title. We are creating new IP as we
convert the book toward a new goal.</blockquote>
Thanks to LongNosePete for the tip.

I'd rather have d20 than V.A.T.S.

I'd rather have no combat system if those two are the choices.

How about a grammar check game?

This is really the best outcome, imo. GCG can sell their D20 post apoc game and Bethesda can sell their Fallout 3 game.

As for the Fallout PnP invalid claim, since Bethesda now owns the IP, Bethsoft's can stop this, imo.

If Bethesda's FO3 flop, then GCG will be glad not to be affiliated with Fallout 3 - in any way, shape or form.

Indeed. GURPS tabletop Fallout ftw!

If they win the lawsuit maybe they'll impliment V.A.T.S. into D20?
