Star Wars' Images Question - Page 2

Information gathered, thanks JB.

Well, so where do we go from here?

Star Wars is out, maybe we could find or create something similar.

Question Images Wars Star

Well, my question was answered so Image usage for Star Wars is out along with their names, music, etc.:

Also, since this is not an issue anymore we can keep Discussion of your future Role-playing Game to here: Malcolmshaw's Star Wars Role-playing Game Review rather than spread it across the three Star Wars related Threads.

Understood. Thanks for letting me at least put out my ideas and analysis of each of the systems.

Sorry that we could not make Star Wars here a reality.

Comments: Well if this is the case then Wookiepedia, numerous fan-based websites, meme maker sites, and any number of various individual non-profit sites are all in trouble. If they believe it is worth the effort to attempt to track & close down each and every one or take them to court over a legal dispute such as using images then they really don't have anything better to do with their time. Personally I say go for it! Just make sure you not charging anything otherwise you may draw down the hounds of hell upon yourself!

Question Images Wars Star

I rather not. I have done something like that in the past and a disgruntled player tried to cause trouble. So while LucasArts may not want to 'attack' any fan sites I rather not attempt anything that will cause me to have to remove it later.

Star Wars' Images Question

There are Star Wars Fansite Kits for Star Wars games, most notably The Old Republic. That would give you legal images you could use, and the Old Republic Era is one of the best to set games in, because it's the Wild West. You don't need to worry about canon looming over your head and everyone can swing around light sabers if they wish.

Then it's just a matter of system. D20 and West End Games versions are dead, so you can't get permission from those companies. FFG is fan friendly (And the best game for Star Wars thus far) so you could reach out to them. That said, Star Wars is such a strong setting, you could run it with whatever system you want. Fate Accelerated, for example, is Creative Commons and can run any darn thing you want. Savage Worlds is a popular game and has numerous Fan Made Star Wars hacks.

I do not know if they can give permission to use in Play By Post though and Malcomshaw attempted to contact them about it but they did not respond.

I will have to read the exact terms for that. You can please use the Contact Page to send me whatever info you have on it.

Malcomshaw has been threatening that a long time but has not made it a reality yet. This is the specific Thread you can use for variants in other systems: Malcolmshaw's Star Wars Role-playing Game Review.
