So, with what limited free time I have, I decided it would be fun to start converting Heroes from Sentinels of the Multiverse decks to SCRPG character sheets, guessing at what their charecteristics would be. Obviously, I am only converting the ones not released yet, or the ones that never will be released (<cough> Nightmist, Scholar, Ra <cough>).
So, my question is: will I be allowed to share these conversions on these Forums (once I'm done with them)?
I understand that it could disallowed, as it is essential giving out a (much lower quality) version of future products for free. So I wanted to ask before sharing.
Well, yay or nay?

GIven past rulings on this kind of question, I would suggest posting them on sites like Board Game Geek to avoid potential issues with another company's IP showing up on GTG sites. :-\ That's not an official decision -- I'm just a Mod, not an Admin -- but it's consistent with how they've approached this kind of thing in the past. :-(
Alright, I understand. I'll refrain from posting them on here. : (

I am confused... isn't Sentinels of the Multiverse a GTG product? What am I missing?

Oh!!! My apologies!!! :-o I completely misread this! :-(
Yes, conversions of GTG characters is great -- even welcome! :-) (I thought you were asking about other IPs like Marvel or DC, hence my comment.)
Sorry for messing that up, and thanks to KJ_Max for calling me on it! :-D

I also thought the initial post was asking about other IPs as well Rabit
Nice! The converting shall begin! : D
To clarify, I did mean only >G owned Sentinels of the Multiverse characters. (like Haka, the Visionary, Tempest, etc.)
Thanks KJ_Max for helping Rabit find his error.
Look forward to me posting them at irregular intervals!

PS -- the Wikipedia page for Sentinels doesn't mention the RPG.
(E: Wikipedia, not "the wiki" -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentinels_of_the_Multiverse. Just mentioning it because I noticed when looking for any possible ownership quirks on the SotM property that I wasn't aware of, before I posted my first comment... I didn't think it needed its own thread, or a chain of threads afterwards asking why I posted it. I'm adding clarification here as an edit, as well, for the same "why waste more posts" reason.)

The first paragraph on the wiki mentions the RPG as one of the games. There's also a link on the front page for the Sentinels RPG board here on the wiki. If you want to have wiki discussions that's better for a different thread.
Yeah, that's probably because it doesn't meet Wikipedia's Notability Standards and/or it technically isn't out for the public yet.
Like Powerhound_2000, I'm not really sure why you're mentioning this in this Thread.
Edit: Oh, okay, then.
