An email was sent out to the PG&S Editorial Board this morning regading B1 Legacy of the Unkown. If you did not receive the message and have previously emailed/pmed me about editing, please drop me a note. The rough draft will go out to the editorial board tonight.
Playtesters have a beta version and will also receive an updated version.

Black Blade Publishing imprint of OSRIC is not only the most definitive printing of OSRIC to date, but also the single greatest resource for old school gamers since the three original hardbacks written by E. Gary Gygax.

About three to four weeks. It has turned into a much larger project than I originally planned. I can't legally call it a super module, but it will be as big as one.

Does WoTC have a trademark on "Super Module"? Doing a search on the US Patent and Trademark Offices website's Trademark Electronic Search System (http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/gate.exe?f=t ... 6v38g4.1.1) shows no results for "super module". Looking at a couple covers of the TSR "super modules" (T1-4 & B1-9) I can't see where they called them super modules. Maybe its something that we (the fans) started using in reference to them?

Still can't wait to get my grubby hands on it....if you call it a super module or not

Why can't you call it a super module? :?:

I was under the impression that TSR trademarked it. I guess I am mistken on that count.
Super Module it is!

There was a list of TSR trademarked words floating around the internet...I couldn't find it so I went straight to the trademark and patent office. The phrase didn't show up there. Maybe someone on here still has that list bookmarked?

Something tells me a common phrase like "super module" cannot be copyrighted or trademarked. Could be wrong, I guess. Just does not seem likely.
