<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "About writing a rebalance of a current, existing codex..."]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/16.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net About writing a rebalance of a current, existing codex... GW feels about this, particularly when there is an approximate 65% overlap betweeen the new rebalanced codex and the old codex in terms of rules and point costs.
The reason I began the rebalanced codex was to experiment with game balancing, myself. I just don't want to get in legal trouble or get my account banned for posting my work without knowing if it's acceptable.

Thanks for reading, please let me know if it's OK for me to post my rebalanced codex.

TL;DR: Can I post my rebalanced codex if there is a 50-65% overlap with the original GW codex?

I've personally posted 3 or 4 rebalanced codices here. It's not a big deal. No one here actually thinks that you're attempting to infringe on GW's IP, but a short "Fan-made, GW owns everything forever" disclaimer won't hurt.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/670079/8251150.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/670079/8251150.page GMT Re:About writing a rebalance of a current, existing codex... GW hasn't lawyered up on them. I simple disclaimer at the top of your rules couldn't hurt, but GW only really gears up when model suppliers start to infringe on their IP because that's all they think they are in the business of.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/670079/8253021.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/670079/8253021.page GMT
