Fallout PnP Tabletop Game: Cease and Desist

Glutton Creeper Games has updated their official website with news that Bethesda Softworks has slapped them with a cease and desist order in an attempt to put an end to their Fallout PnP d20 project.

May 8th, 2007: ZeniMax Media/Bethesda has threatened to file an injunction against GCG for damages, should we not cease and deist production of Fallout PnP d20 products. They are stating that Interplay never had the rights to license a Pen and Paper to GCG under their license of Fallout from 2004 before the purchase of the IP, and makes claims against GCG that it may damage the Fallout brand and forecoming Fallout 3 release by linking the two. So for now, we have removed the page, until a resolution is met. If you want to see Fallout PnP d20 releases, please let the people at ZeniMax Media/Bethesda know, but don’t send them hate mail or flames.

Our first product was being sent for review this weekend to Interplay, and still will be, as we hope Interplay will get this sorted out with Bethesda.

Considering that Glutton Creeper signed a contract with Interplay for this project way back in 2004, I don’t see how Bethesda can shut it down.
