I had a nice phone conversation with David Pearce, the new owner of All Quiet, last night. I'm not at liberty to reveal any details, but it sounds like he has some very exciting plans for the game in the future. We talked about keeping future developments consistent with what I've written in my novels and I think that should be possible. Good things are coming!

So pretty much the same game as far as the alternate history mashed with the somewhat plausible science and industry of the time?

I'm hoping so. We shall see what can be done. The only thing I know for sure is that I can't go back and change the novels which are already published

Mr Washburn's history for AQMF is in place already.

No legal connection or obligation was intended to be implied. You do, however, hold precedent in the storyline development second only to Baker/Cavatorri/Priestly. In fact yours backfills a lot of territory within their construct.
The new owners can accept, adapt, or abolish the storyline as it suits their business interest. Your work gives them the possiblity of a running start.

When a town has one lawyer, she will starve. When a town has two lawyers, both will get rich. Most people are shocked when they learn some of the stupidity that infects their lives which exists only to reduce liability. Enough lawyer jive. I'd rather face a Tripod with a pointed stick.
As far as history goes, get 4 people who saw the same event to give an account. There will be discrepancies and discontinuities. Or, in game terms, wiggle room.
Personally, I will take Scott's work as official, and any lawyer that says otherwise can suck black dust. (That's a joke, son)
I am happy Scott's work, and Scott, is involved.

Looking forward to seeing what they do with this game, and hopeful that they don't go all steampunk!
