Topic: Castlevania: Nocturne of the Tabletop

The game creator didn't want money for this did he? If he did then I can understand Konami's C&D. If not then the Konami heads need to lighten up a quite a bit. Really this should be no different then any other fangame and treated just as such others that Konami let pass.

The Project is for free and He didn't take any money for it. It was a Print an Play thing that he wanted to do. Its a shame that Konami suddenly cares now?.....This game has been up for years and now they have a problem?..This was also up on TTS which I have to remove due to Brandon's Request.....All 8,000 Subcribers from Tabletip Sim all of that...gone...

Damn. Talk about rough

It's disturbing to me that Konami would go after a fan made CV board game now after it's already been out 4 years.

This is sad news.

It's also a sign for anyone working on a CV fan project to be very cautious these days.

This is the big thing I see from all this. They probably didn't care about fan projects when they let the series live in a freezer, but now that they're working on the IP again they're probably going to go after anything they aren't producing. Makes me quite worried for one of the more famous projects here. ;w;

Oh man, I could only imagine the meltdown here if Umbra gets a C&D from Konami.

What I can get from this incident is

- They have no rules -

I wouldn't be much more surprised if they chose to hunt down every single Doujin product/fan made games in the History after this case.

Well I've figured out why Simon got a C&D from this Boardgame....In his own words from the Discord server

"Sorry. I'm done distributing it, someone who claimed to be a fan of the game is the one who turned me into Konami so he could rip off the idea after they shut me down, so I'm done, he or someone like him could be anywhere, waiting for me to start sending it out privately so they can run and tell Konami again and get me sued out of existence.
About a month ago"

Still that is pretty messed up that someone will rat on him to get Konami to do something.....

If that's the case then this particular incident should be reported to Konami in as much detail as possible. That way if it happens again they can investigate it. That's if they want to of course.
