Dear EA,
I would like to know if you could give an input about this topic:
http://cncreborn.planetcnc.gamespy.com/for...topic.php?t=513The question is : Will CnC Reborn require the original renegade to work?
We would like to know if we can make it standalone (we have the knowledge for it).
It means that people without any EA cnc games could discover the CnC Universe trough our mod and more.
We would like also know if we could include the EA tiberium logo in front of our mod when we launch it and maybe
we could add a short advertiser for EA First Decade and CnC3 and its expansion.
Well you know more than me what would be the best solution and what is possible at this point.
I just want to keep the good contact with you and make sure what we do is legal and has been agreed by you.
I am waiting your reply.
Best Regards,
Renaud Sury (aka Renardin), CnC Reborn's Mod Co-Lead Producer.
The answer is nice:

Hey Renaud,
Everything you have described is 100% fine and your intentions to freely advertise our C&C games are very appreciated. If you’d like to pursue this for your mod, I think it’s entirely fine.
The only “illegal” area that you cannot pursue when modding is creating a mod which you look to profit from on our “likeness”. You can mod and create to your hearts desire and do anything to encourage people to check out the C&C universe or cross-promote our EA C&C games as you suggest, as long as you don’t have any method to profit from your mod. That infringes copyright issues, but I’ve never seen or felt you guys would head that direction.
Keep steering your path and you’re good to go, we’re very excited to see what you have cooking.
Cheers,
Apoc
So you don't need Renegade to have Reborn. It will be standalone and it will be for free of course!
