With the completion of the ORC license, soon we'll begin building campaigns, adventures, and supplements for Tabletop RPG's. It's an exciting time for gaming!

“The whole point of the ORC is to give the gaming community comfort, confidence, and certainty."

01/28/2023

Wizards of the Coast (WotC), a company owned by Hasbro, is backing completely off of their plans to create a new OGL after the massive backlash from fans.

What this means for Shield Blade Publishing? It doesn't change the latest plans for designing materials and games under the ORC license that Paizo is developing. The ORC will be a great addition to the table top gaming community, as well as offer Hasbro an honest challenger for keeping fans attention. Since the ORC will be owned by a non profit neutral party, it'll forever be safe from greedy suits. And all of the largest 3rd party designers for D&D are still moving forward with their plans to publish under ORC.

WotC is also adding more of their material to their Creative Commons and returning to their original OGL that has been in place over 2 decades and been part of the reason D&D has gone mainstream. This means that Shield Blade will also restart the plans for creating D&D materials with new adventures, classes, monsters, etc. As well as a setting or 2 based on writers that are published or in the process of publishing through Shield Blade Publishing.

If you're a fan of role playing games, this might be the beginning of a golden age for the gaming community. And the lesson learned here is, don't fix something if it isn't broken on the first place.

Wizards of the Coast cancel plans to reauthorize OGL 1.0a after immense backlash from fans since attempting to change its rules for DnD creators.

01/15/2023

Although Shield Blade Publishing has not published any material in the Table Top Role Playing Game world, that is going to be changing soon as Hasbro has caused a break away from their famous Dungeons and Dragons fanbase by attempting to remove their 20 year old open gaming license that allowed people and companies to create content for D&D and profit from it.

The community and many large companies that make up those content creators have rebelled and now are working towards creating their own open gaming license, . Shield Blade Publishing stands with these companies and will be working with writers to promote and publish content under this new license moving forward.

Good luck to all those who have joined the community and hopefully Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast will see the error of their monetization of a game that only requires pencil, paper, and imagination.
