Makes me wish they'd include HU the next time they do something like that.

yeah is kinda embarassing that they don't put HU in the list...

Oh, you mean the one that keeps him from facing trial for copyright issues?

What they mean is that the policy is too strict, and takes away fun opportunities to do things like this.

Not at ALL. That's why I brought it up. <looks at his copy of Nightspawn> But it's because of threats of law suits just like that that forces Palladium to have the 'too strict' policy.

That really has no bearing here. Clearly this was published with the permission of all parties. Not that Palladium would have given that permission if asked.

Yup - that little project was done with the permission of marvel and the relevant game companies - so no chance of a lawsuit. Actually - this isn't the only multi-system cooperation I've seen - there are several supplement books that can be used directly with several different types of superhero games (typically Hero and one other like SAS, MaM and so forth - they have full stats for both systems).

Maybe Palladium should look into producing a book in cooperation with another game company. Might increase the popularity of HU and Palladium in general (or at least non-Rifts Palladium).

Hmmm......I wonder if they did something similar concerning the new Spidey movie....hmmm
