Wow, shitty. :( You gotta feel for Brazilian players, not to mention (and especially!) Redbox and Meeple BR.
It seems a little reminiscent of the hullabaloo that went on between Gygax and his erstwhile cohorts at TSR for control of the company and D&D license back in the 80's, albeit on a larger scale. What a cluster-****.
If you read the business press, this sort of thing happens. The Wall St. Journal is the scandal sheet of the wealthy and business powerful.
