==Editions== The first version of Hackmaster the game was released in a joking way as "HackMaster 4th Edition" in 2001. When Kenzer lost the AD&D license in 2007, they rejiggered Hackmaster into a full-fledged and legal [[retroclone]], focusing exclusively on self-designed mechanics so they wouldn't need to pay WotC any more money. This "revamped" version of Hackmaster was released in 2009 as "HackMaster Basic". In 2011, a 2nd edition of the HackMaster Basic version of the game was released as "HackMaster 5th Edition". Whilst still a comedic game, it had lost much of its previous "grognard mocking parody" ideals, succumbing to market realities and smoothing out its gaming crunch to make a still-complex (for example, combat happens in real time and is based on rolling attack rolls vs. defense rolls) but more easily played game.
