Mini Six: Bare Knuckle Edition Release

Today's the day! Mini Six Bare Knuckle Edition is ready-ish. You can get it here . This exists (for now) as a Google Docs text-only file. The future of BKE has no timetable. There is still playtesting going on (especially in the magic system) and refinements, additions, and changes, will come. That's why I've called this version of BKE "0.7 RC1." It's out there now. You can tinker with it, tear it apart, use it to power your own creations or laugh at it. Planned changes for later versions: Adding a "grimoire" of rote spells. Until the current magic rules are playtested further, it's too much of a moving target to try to nail this part down. Possibly adding (optional) more detailed vehicle rules. Where is the print version? I probably won't be releasing BKE itself in print at any point. What I may do is release a more complete game, including art, one or more mini-settings, GM advice, etc. that is powered by Bare Knuckle, but as its own sepa

BKE and Licenses

I hate all of the license stuff. I believe that you can't copyright mechanics , so there's nothing in the concepts within BKE that you even need a license for. The CC-BY-SA license gives you the right to cut and paste the text, as I have written it, and use it in your own work. As has been pointed out by others, there's nothing equivalent to the old Product Identity section of the OGL to easily build walls between the stuff you want to retain exclusive rights to, and the stuff that is "community content" in that license. I'm not a lawyer, and I'm not giving legal advice. It seems like I've seen references to designating certain portions of a work under CC-BY-SA and other portions under other licenses (or retaining full rights), but you need a clear way to designate stuff, and it can get really messy... it's a headache that I don't want to bring onto anyone. That said, I have a plan to release my own game. This wasn't part of my original

Mini Six Notes

I've flirted with the idea of producing a Mini Six Revised for half a decade now. There have been personal issues and issues regarding my coauthor, Phil, which have hampered the project. Here's the thing. Mini Six accomplished its primary goal. At the time that Mini Six was published, Phil and I felt like we were racing the clock to preserve a legacy. The (former) owner of West End Games had grand ambitions to release the D6 system under the OGL, but the last vestiges of WEG seemed to be rapidly crumbling. There was a plan by WEG to release the OpenD6 Trademark License, which was the last legal minutia which was required for third-party publishers to carry on. Early summer turned to Gen Con time, then fall came, and things seemed bleaker at WEG by the week. By December, we had a plan. Mini Six was published because we feared that the Trademark License might not end up being released before the lights went out at WEG forever, leaving D6 / OpenD6 in limbo. So, we thought
