remake of gorgons?

[fued]

has anyone attempted to remake birthright into a computer game?

was one of my favorite games of all times, and i am actually looking it up to help me work on another similar computer game i am making(set more into the future tho), and was wondering if there is any more modern versions of it?

there are various downloads to upgrade the game - several on this site. The game is however still owned by Sierra who, as I understand, are somewhat keen on copyright - they might not be interested in releasing any more BR-style games but they don't want anyone else to either.

yea i didnt think they would


oh well back to my "similar mechanics but different storyline" game

They tried to make a new Birthright the Gorgon's Alliance as freeware in this forum,but the project stopped....

But Sierra owns the Birthright game copyright,or the copyright for every game based on BR?The second case is a shame...is like only Sierra is allowed to make pc game based on the WW2...but lol!

I think that sierra has the rights to do 3 BR games, but gave up after #1 as they wanted to focus on mass-market games.

I don't know the details of the deal, but would figure that anything too close to the game itself would be risky - particularly if you tried to sell it. There are several D&D games out there though so something should be possible.
