No offense, but don't you think the owners of Warhammer 40K might get a little miffed about someone designing a Mud game based on their game? While I have seen a bunch of Muds based on D&D, Wheel of Time, Star Wars, & Shadowrun, etc. Do they exist because the owners of the original work have chosen not to sue? Or do they not care? Didn't "Shadows of Isildur" have a problem like that for awhile with the Tolkien heirs? Seems if I had invented a popular tabletop fantasy game, & someone decided to base a Mud on my game, I would want to be paid some kind of royalty for the use of my ideas and/or trademark, even if the Mud was free.
