Why not take out all the Tolkien names and use the game engine for a new
fantasy game similar to Middle Earth PBM? You might get a lot of new players
for a less expensive game which was not Tolkien-oriented.

This is something that has been discussed with GSI but something that we
could bring up. Lots of players like it and it certainly brings in the
players.

I for one play the game because it is a Tolkien-oriented game.

Its illegal ? Someone had to spend the time and money
to create the middle earth pbm game. Pinching his game
engine and cutting off their income stream isn't going
to go down well with any other PBM designers.

I don't mind giving whoever created M/E every dollar
they have recieved.

And I hope that other people take the time to make
their own PBM games. Most will fail ( so I don't
expect people to make a living out of it), but they
deserve the money if they succeed.

Its also good that companies like Harly run different
games.

thanks
