I have not seen the game itself, however, from your description of what was
and what was not OGC, that is what I have always thought to be what the OGL
was for, exactly as you use it. In that way, I can include your Leucrotta
without fear of being trampled upon.
Good luck and god bless,

> In doing that free module, we spent over two months in

> publication and converting to pdf. plus, we hired a
> professional artist to do some awesome line art. The
> total project cost was well over $1000 (not counting
> my or Bill's time which would have been astronomical).

> Guess what. If anyone thinks I am going to open that

> Now we did offer some open content: npcs, monster
> descriptions, etc. plus, we created the Leucrotta
> (which will not appear in the 3E MM) in 3E terms and
