Year Zero Engine Free Tabletop License (version 1.0)
Fria Ligan AB (“Free League”) has created the attached Year Zero Engine System Reference Document (“YZE SRD”). You may use the YZE SRD to create your own tabletop role playing game, subject to the terms of this license agreement.
By using the YZE SRD, you agree to these terms.
- LICENSE. Free League hereby grants you a worldwide, perpetual, non-exclusive right to copy, use, modify, translate, and distribute the YZE SRD in printed form, as a PDF, or as a virtual tabletop module (“VTT”) as part of your own tabletop role playing game, modules, and expansions (your “Game”). VTTs do not include NFTs or video games, only virtual tabletop modules. So long as you comply with the terms of this agreement, this license is irrevocable. If you breach the terms of this agreement, this license terminates automatically.
- EXCLUSIONS. This agreement applies only to the YZE SRD. It does not permit you to use any other artwork, text, or other materials created or owned by Free League or to use any of Free League’s brands or logos, except as set forth in section 5, below.
- OWNERSHIP OF THE YZE SRD. You agree that Free League owns all rights in the YZE SRD and that you will not contest those rights. Free League expressly reserves all rights not expressly granted in this agreement.
- OWNERSHIP OF YOUR GAME. You own all rights in any Game you make under this agreement. Free League may not copy or use your Game without your permission.
But you acknowledge that Free League may independently create something similar to your Game and that it is not prohibited from doing so unless it knowingly and intentionally copied your original work.
- LOGO. You may, but are not required to, place the Year Zero Engine logo (the “Logo”) on any Game you create using this license. If you choose to apply the Logo, you must use the official version made available here and follow any other guidelines Free League provides for use of the Logo. Free League reserves the right to require that you stop using the Logo on a going forward basis at its sole discretion.
- NOTICE. You must include a notice on your Game, or any website or advertising material associated therewith, that states that your Game is not sponsored or endorsed by Free League and that you are using the YZE SRD under license. We recommend, “This game is not affiliated with, sponsored, or endorsed by Fria Ligan AB. The Year Zero Engine System Reference Document is used under Fria Ligan AB’s Free Tabletop License.” You must also include a copy of or link to this license agreement with each publication of your game.
- RESTRICTIONS. Except as expressly permitted in this agreement, you may not state or imply that Free League endorses, sponsors, or is affiliated with your Game.
- REPRESENTATIONS. You represent and warrant that you have the capacity to enter into this agreement, that your Game does not violate or infringe the rights of any third party, and that your Game complies with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations in every jurisdiction in which it is distributed.
- DISCLAIMER. FREE LEAGUE IS PROVIDING THE YZE SRD “AS IS,” MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT, AND DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE. Free League has no liability for your use of the YZE SRD and, in addition, you expressly waive any claim for any indirect, punitive, special, exemplary, incidental, or consequential damages.
- MISCELLANEOUS. This is the entire agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and you agree that you have not relied on any terms or representations other than those expressly stated herein. Free League recommends that you review this agreement with your own lawyer and you acknowledge that you have had an opportunity to do so. Free League may update this agreement at its sole discretion, but you will continue to have the right to use the YZE SRD under the terms of this agreement or any subsequently published version of this agreement at your sole discretion. No joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and Free League as a result of this agreement. Free League’s failure to exercise any right or provision in this agreement shall not constitute a waiver unless expressly acknowledged and agreed to by Free League in writing.
