Any ideas?

I don't think it's worth that much but I'd go for Alien Legion, oh, and Dreadstar.

I've love to see a tabletop version.  It's a shame the d20 version was canceled way back.  The free version floating around is just a tad too clunky.

Booyah! Call it Giant Floating Head Games and get some of those little cocktail spoons as promo giveaways. Motto: "The game that puts hair on your chest."

The X-Files

Just for the pleasure: Either "The Middleman" or "Hyperion/Endymion".

With a commercial intent... The "Stargate" universe could be developed well beyond the boundaries of the TV show ("Well, Major Carter... We have established that 'The Color Out of Space' actually came 'out of here'. What now?")

I would buy the rights to Mr. T. He's due for a resurgence in popularity.

A-Team.
Then get a Savage Worlds version out on the market.

Final Fantasy
Halo
Castlevania
Fallout
Bioshock

On a more modestly budgeted note, Malazan Book of the Fallen. I could probably get the license for relatively cheap, and pimp the fuck out of the book.

Bas Lag or Malazan Books of the Fallen. Both are highly popular with built in audiences, derive from RPG campaigns in part and are therefore conceptually easy to reconvert to campaign settings, and both have a lot to do.

Adamant IIRC has (or had, I haven't heard anything really since) Bas-Lag.

Thanks for the nod to Malazan Book of the Fallen, I'd been looking for the "Black Company for a more mainstream audience series", but couldn't recall the name at all.

For 100K I'd blow it on producing full color, uncensored, playable out of the box Tekumel for MRQ, Savage Worlds and whatever else I could. Along with a Atlas / Creature book ala After Man (or series of books). Yes this is similar to Mongoose's nixed plans for Conan post-d20, on purpose. Add in Jorune as another world in the same 'verse, whatever world BLAME! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yl9GGiwtD98) is in and if I still have money left over license Zothique, Hyborea, The Night Land and Cordwainer Smith's Instrumentality of Mankind.

Your philosophy is sound, sir.

Quote from: Casey777;355253Adamant IIRC has (or had, I haven't heard anything really since) Bas-Lag.

So far as I can tell, this is vapourware. If it's not, it's overdue by a year and a half, with no advance promotions to indicate that it's coming out any time soon.

For myself, Fallout. To make money, Twilight.

Already mentioned, but Halo or Twilight.

I also reckon Harry Potter would be a winner if Rowling would be less precious about her IP (many disagree (http://www.enworld.org/forum/general-rpg-discussion/156697-no-harry-potter-rpg.html)).

I think Metal Gear Solid could be primo for a fairly complex modern/cyberpunk system.  The stories in the games incorporate high powered "hero" characters without seeming cheesy or jumping out of the genre (IMO).

A Ghost in the Shell type cyberpunk game would be awesome though im not sure the rights would be that cheap considering the manga and anime rights go for silly money according to various sources within the anime and manga biz.

This is only a semi-educated guess, but i reckon you'd probably need to sell more than 10,000 units to break even if you're paying that sort of money for a license. Of those mooted so far, what has the legs, popular appeal, or wiggle-room for expansion to sell those kinds of numbers, i wonder?

Quote from: Hairfoot;355278Already mentioned, but Halo or Twilight.

.

Harry Potter's universe is big and could fill a big number of supplements (exp. if one is allowed to expand from the books - i.e. how schools of wizardry in other countries are, etc.). But I would be hard pressed to fill more than four pages for a "Twilight" game :huhsign:

(Yes, I read the first book - no excuses involved. Around page 300 I had this sudden feeling of falling into a void and I never finished it...)

Quote from: beejazz;355261For myself, Fallout. To make money, Twilight.

I'm planning a Fallout game right now using BRP right now. It'll be one of two pitches I'll make to a new group about which game we should play come about February. BRP does Fallout really easily, btw.

The coolest part of it, IMHO, is I went out and bought a map of Toronto, took and sharpie and a highlighter, and started making my "campaign map" as an IC document.

The idea is that a relative of the PCs discovered it in the Scarborough Development Museum a decade and a half ago behind glass, pulled it out and started using it on his travels because all latter map versions (after 2015 or so) were digitized. so you've got this map that was already sixty-seven years out of date by the time the apocalypse happened, but that is also your only useful guide to the geography of the city. I think it'll be a super-fun campaign aid, and it makes sandbox play a lot easier.

Iain Banks' "Culture" universe.

PCs as starships, mebee.

Ultraverse
Crossgen

Maybe Transformers, sneak it into a Monopoly box and get it on the shelves before the next movie comes out. Possibly a Simpsons / Futurama game.

Are there any details on how much the Doctor Who license was?

The Elder Scrolls. It's a computer RPG with the depth and detail of a TRPG - And the setting background can easily stick your brain in a blender set to high.

Just try figuring out what Aedra and Daedra *actually are*.

Quote from: GeekEclectic;355416Ultraverse
Crossgen

Sounds like someone likes my kinds of comics.

I miss CrossGen...I got hooked on their digests...=(

Which probably means I helped kill them...=P

For me?  I dunno...Ravenloft or Midnight, for a Savage Setting?  License Buffy or Angel (since Fox keeps the licenses separate now) and the Cinematic Unisystem system license to revive the line(s) properly?  Especially if I could secure publishing rights to the dead playtest manuscripts...

I say lines, because if, say, Buffy paid off, I'd bring back Angel...

IF, and its a major If, it was doable for that amount - the STAR TREK license bought on behalf of Steve Jackson Games and GURPS. The license would be for all versions of TREK, with a debut book focusing on the recent movie with TOS references adapted to it.

Also, somehow write the license contract that the term is at least 10 years. (NOT 3 or 5 years)

Nope you dont have to read them. Just take Dawson's Creek and add sparkle fairies, eco-wolves and your done.

The Secret Saturdays is my dream license right now, so I'd go for it in a heartbeat if I had the ability.  Of course I've always wanted to say to the SWRPG designers "you're doing it wrong!" so that wouldn't be a bad license to have either. :D

Harry Potter

If feasible I'd spend the $100K on a license to release Thundarr the Barbarian on DVD.  If the DVD made money then I'd talk to them about an RPG license.

The rights might be tied up in a Jack Kirby lawsuit somewhere - possibly. Thought I read somewhere that his family was still trying to get monies and royalties that he was owed from back then.

Ok, this may sound crazy but an ultra violent A Nightmare on Elm Street boardgame/rpg hybrid with the GM playing the role of Freddy ! Kids would dig it. Vincent Barker should design it.

I don't know about the royalties issue, but the notion that Kirby created the show is false.

Kirby did a great deal of production work on the show, but principal visual design was done by Alex Toth, and the show was primarily created by Steve Gerber for (and with the involvement of) the two guys behind Ruby-Spears.

Here's some more info on it:

http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2006/11/23/comic-book-urban-legends-revealed-78/

The Kirby lawsuit is directed at Marvel.

Quote from: Hairfoot;355488Chick Tracts: the RPG.

Oh no...Don't burn it, the money they gained would be used to make Hawt Dudes, the RPG.

Quote from: Narf the Mouse;355512...Burn it with fire.

If it was for my own satisfaction, I suppose I would either get Amber (so that we'd actually get the game living again) or the Legion of Superheroes.

If it was to try to get a game going that was likely to be a financial success? I think it would probably be Avatar. Hell, it could be either Avatar (Cameron's godawful film, or The Last Airbender), for that matter... though I was thinking of the latter, because I actually like that one.

RPGPundit

The original question is interesting; but for what it is worth, I would rather have 20 times that ammount of money, get the license from Marc Miller and head off to Japan to hire an animation studio to make a Traveller Anime series.

"Dai go furontia sensō no Monogatari" has a nice ring to it.

That, right there, is my business model for ZardoZ the LARP: Costume Set.

Quote from: ancientgamer;355509I would buying the license for an show on the rise like Sanctuary, Warehouse 13, Demons...

Ironically, those three shows were all ones that came to my mind too :)

Two past games I'd love to license are Dark Conspiracy and Millenniums End. The settings for both games would need a major overhaul (the danger of setting your game in the "near future" when you publish - you quickly catch up to the timeline), but I enjoy them both and can see lots of potential in both.

If Demons is that british show i wouldnt bother it got axed after about 8 episodes due to being utter shite, you could get the rights for about £50 though i reckon if you really, really want them :)

The Fantasy Trip.  Rules light + complete + old school all the way.  Just reformat, polish and refine a bit and your good to go.

While we're dreaming, raise that amount again and get DGP's now ancient IP off of Roger Sanger or convince him to put them on PDF, CD or back in print. Even that may not be enough money. :(

And I'm not even that fond of DGP's stuff, never seeing it back in the day and not fond of their tendency towards higher tech or detailing everything. But it was well made, the only older Traveller material of worth not legally available.

Reservoir Dogs.

It is and I did not know about the cancellation.  I was hoping for a good vamp/freak show:(

Spacemaster and Rolemaster

Then I could release the Rolemaster on a 1d10 system I wrote.  And a new edition of both and a nice line of miniatures.

According to Wargames Factory they're running $20k to make mould.  So I'd try for an evil races sprue with skelletons, orcs, goblins, hobgoblins, and trolls, a good races sprue with elves, dwarves, halflings, and humans, and a spacemaster races sprue with Falar, Oorts, Tulgar, Xanotasians, and Kagoth.  I'd try to have some compatible bits.  Human, halfing, dwarf, skelleton, goblin, tulgar, oort and elf hands could all be compatible allowing weapon swaps.  Similarly Hobgoblin heads and human bodies would be compatible, as would halfling and goblin heads and bodies.  Just for fun the troll and kagoth heads and hands would be swapable though a kagoth body with a troll head would be straight out of where the wild things are.

Quote from: David Johansen;355641Spacemaster and Rolemaster

Quote from: Tetsubo;355470Gamma World, Thundarr the Barbarian and Herculoids. The mutants are going to rule!

I'd totally go for a Herculoids game... not that there is much to the setting, just a vast bestiary of 'monsters of the week'.  Maybe it'd make better as a skirmish wargame?

I don't have much faith in licensed games... so I'd take the money, buy up something cheap like 'Plan 9 From Outer Space' (a supplement for Psychobilly Retropocalypse?) and use the rest of the money to pay some really good writers/designers to make a great Harry Potter RPG under assumed names and then distribute it free on the webz.
This might annoy Rowling into greenlighting a 'real' HP RPG... thus bringing in loads of kiddies to RPGs and saving the day for the future of gamer humanity.

I know the folks who wrote The Lost Room (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lost_Room) on sci-fi network, and could probably talk them into giving me the rights for free to make an RPG out of it, provided it was good :)

Random Idea! Fraggle Rock: The RPG

Quote from: Dirk Remmecke;355642That sounds like such a huge deviation that I guess you could do it anyway. As long as you don't want to call it RM.

To clarify I wrote a d10 game called The Rolemaster's Apprentice that is set up to introduce the concepts in Rolemaster as an introductory freebee.  It's largely a response to the nonsense out there about Rolemaster being complex.  The rules are Rolemaster's rules or derived from them directly but the character sheet is about half a page and the charts are reduced in size and scope.  ICE hasn't given me permission to release it and without the name it becomes something of a pointless exercise.

The new edition would be more RMSS than RM2 but it would certainly be a d% game with lots of charts, open ended rolls and so forth.  It would indeed still be Rolemaster.

As for other media properties.  Please understand, I don't run liscenced games and never will.  Nor do I believe they are at all healthy for game companies or the general health of the hobby.  Create something new please.

Quote from: Hairfoot;355718Hmm.  What's the current name?  No point paying you to upgrade.

Alternately "Der Pisshund" and "Mr. Widdles".  All too often he goes by "Rot-ten!" and "Shithead!"  I'm never sure what to call him from one day to the next.  I figure being under contract to call him "Rolemaster" would simplify matters greatly.

Yeah, but I have had little direct contact with the concept/TV show. Hence, why it's a random idea.

The Avengers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Avengers_(TV_series)). Currently, it's probably not worth the whole 100k, though, so I'd use what was left over to buy the rights to the Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain_Scarlet_and_the_Mysterons).

Ooo! Space:1999 or UFO might be good options too.

*If* you could get either for $100,000 or less I'd go with Marvel or Harry Potter.

Otherwise I'd go for Amber, His Dark Materials, Twilight, Primeval, maybe True Blood, The X-Files, and a host of others :p

Those two shows, Captain Scarlet, Thunderbirds, Stingray et al are similar enough if not vaguely in the same universe you might as well get a general Gerry Anderson license. It could be so fun. Add in the Avengers, Prisoner, Toho films (including the oddball scifi stuff that isn't Godzilla and friends) and you'd have one crazy 60s/70s scifi jam.

Not to mention one killer soundtrack.

That'd be so excellent! I'd totally go for something like that... even more so if it wasn't a license but was instead just a very well done 'homage' to those settings. Open ended to avoid having to adhere to 'canon' and such.

I always thought that the Science Patrol in Ultraman were kind of like a Japanese mashup of Thunderbirds and U.F.O.

It was still far below $100K just before the film was released and is probably even cheaper now that the film didn't do so well at the box office.
