Hi,

I'm new to the forum and I've noticed that the "other" FF game and it's maker aren't mentioned by name.  Is this a legal thing or just a matter of disdain?  Just wondering.

Great minis by the way and Elfball looks like fun.

Both.

One of the owners once worked in a paid position for them and has interesting things to say about that when questioned.

One of the owners is credited with being the Rules, Background and Handbook editor for the last edition of one of their games and has interesting things to say about that when questioned.

In 3 1/2 years we've only had one phone call and one email from their legal or licensing groups (not related to these forums) and we like to keep it that way.

I see. Thanks for clearing that up. Now I can avoid sticking my foot in my mouth.

Your welcome to stick your foot there if you wish! I doubt anyone would complain too much!
