A few mistakes here. 1. There is no way they are doing a reprint. The product didnt sell and I am sure they are crossing their fingers that they sell through their current print run. 2. Weighing of time equation you propose is wrong. You say "time defending my declartions" versus "time to fix it" weighs in favor of fixing them. I would say their time "defending their declarations" is ZERO and the "time to fix it" is more than zero (though perhaps not much). Thus, the weighing you propose actually (as was my intial point) comes out in favor of not fixing things. > Better safe than sorry should ever be the watchword, > if we're to avoid costly and time-consuming > litigation, whis is, after all, the entire purpose > of the OGL. There will be no litigation over this specific Chaosium book ever. So that is a non-factor as to this product. However, if a product were possibly the subject of litigation there would be NO DOUBT that the publisher would fix whatever percieved problems were there (or at least attempt to do so in some way; for an example see Mongoose and the Feats book).
