Tales of the Valiant by a Kobold Press is a  “remaster of D&D fifth edition” and has launched on Kickstarter, has gone by many names during development. It was first introduced to the world as ‘Project Black Flag’, as an RPG system that uses D&D 5e as its foundation, replicating and revising many of the features Wizards of the Coast made usable through a Creative Commons license. It’s its own game, but the system promises to be fully compatible with D&D books. While Kobold Press’ title was in development as early as summer last year, the world first heard about it during the height of the DnD OGL scandal, when proposed changes to Wizards’ third-party licenses threatened to change how companies like Kobold Press operated.

A release date is too many the least of our questions, since we don’t have any real idea what the rules will be like. Well this week GW did give us some more info, and opened up a ton of new questions, about the factions. However the information wasn’t met with approval, but instead confused and befuddled a lot of potential players. Let’s take a look at why.
