I know I said (nearly a month ago) to watch this space. For those of you that have, thank you. I apologize for not actually giving you anything to watch.
The big news, I suppose, is:
REDBRICK LICENSES D&D 4E UNDER GSL
(AUCKLAND, New Zealand) June 20, 2008—RedBrick Limited are pleased to announce they have successfully concluded the signing and acceptance of the first Game System License for Wizards of the Coast’s DUNGEONS & DRAGONS® 4th Edition Roleplaying Game.

I think this is pretty cool. Not really sure exactly where we're going to run with this (and at this stage I can't talk about it even if I did), but what I've seen of D&D4 has intrigued me, and I can't wait to actually get my hands on the books so I can get into it in a bit more depth.
