Copyright issues

Hi all

I would like to make a scenario on a film, taking units and names etc.. I know the dev's did a star wars rare units day on 1st April (Suprised Lucas Arts did not use the force to shut Afterwind down!!) but does anyone think there would be ramifications for the site and me personally??

Thanks for your time!

I believe this would fall under fair use...

Well, hasbro didnt sue the devs for putting RISK and ALIIES AND AXIS in the page name, so im guessing it wouldn't be much of an issue- but I guess its their call.

I dont work in a legal field per say. I work in the audio field and when i was in college the big thing it seemed to me was where the mony goes. Law suits generaly start because your either gaining cash or causing another to loose cash. I dont see how using a picture in a game would cause alot of commotion Unless your senerio all of a sudden was played millions of times and makeing lots of revinue or Slandering the folks where the image came from costing them face. But i also feel its better to get permission thats the best route.
