Yea i was wondering if it was illegal to make a mod thats called NodvsGdi where it would be the same units from C&C but nothing would be like called things from C&C so it wouldnt be breaking a copyright code or something. If lets say i named a unit called a Light Tank could i be sued or like is this legal. Ive made a huge C&C mod combining renegade with some other C&C units.
I don't think you could be sued for making a unit called "light tank." Tons of games and other things use the term light tank and don't seem to have much trouble.
As long as you don't use their models I think it's fine. We have Super Smash Bros, Halo, DBZ, yadayada maps all over the place. Then Mephs map has blazblue music which is actually against the rules. Guess he couldn't get someone to make music for him like SCU.

I'd think it'd fall under "fair use" as long as you're not profiting from it.
