Uz rhymes with Buzz.

Having worked closely with Issaries on licensing, I cannot recall them ever turning down a request for a website license. I can't recall Issaries turning down licenses for doing magazines or fundraiser publications either. The biggest problem has been that few people have asked. To clarify the...

Greg Stafford once told me that part of every Gloranthan licensing deal he makes, including the one with Mongoose, allows him full concept use. He can't use copyrighted text (without permission), but he can basically build on any Gloranthan idea without limitation. Hope that helps, Rick

I don't know what is possible with licensing from Issaries. Mongoose has an exclusive license to use the trademark Runequest. That would leave me to believe that Issaries can't license anyone else without Mongoose's approval. I'm not a lawyer for these sorts of things, so I can only go by what...

Here is the OGL section I was referring to: 13. The use of the term Glorantha or any material directly connected to the Glorantha setting is expressly prohibited by this agreement. Thus, no Gloranthan Runequest by third parties. Sorry, Rick

If you look at the Mongoose "OGL" policy on third parties (like Unspoken Word) publishing Gloranthan Runequest you will find that it is prohibited. You can publish something for Runequest, but not if it is Gloranthan Runequest. Publishing something Gloranthan (but not for Runequest) also...

Actually, the latest theories are that there is more than one. One of the biggies I have discussed with Greg is: The godlearners started changing the cosmos so much that the cosmos decided to snap back to its original state and instantly (well, overnight) destroyed the godlearners in the...

As the publisher, I can confirm that the page count is 56, which is shorter than all the other Unfinished Works in the series. It ended up that way because that was all that was written. Over time it may get expanded and the page count will go up accordingly. After all, it is "Unfinished". Hope...

Faelen comments on someone jumping forth to defend Glorantha... I'm not sure if you are referring to me as that Defender, but whether you are or are not doesn't afftect my take on Runequest. I'm sorry that you are saddened that "Glorantha continues to be the flagship of the line", but I fail to...

Niall, In short, I'm not sure there would have even been a D100, or Runequest system, at all without Glorantha. I realize and respect that Glorantha is not to everyone's (or even most people's) tastes, but without Glorantha, Runequest and the whole percentile based system of derivatives...

Hi all, Greg Stafford wrote a great piece in Different Worlds magazine about how dwarfs (dwarves) were pretty boring and not a great RQ subject for big supplements. In some ways, some people feel that way about elves, although I think they are barking up the wrong tree. Any cult that teaches...

Yes, I want to do a map set, but have no set date for doing it.

Hello all, Slightly shameless plug: What you might want to consider for a starting adventure campaign would be either the Griffin Mountain or Borderlands campaign books. Both are available from Moon Design Publications as part of the four volume Gloranthan Classics reprint series. They cost...
