I’m confused, years ago they released the game for free. Then openra came around and built a modern ish game from it. Then they did a remaster and the source code was available. Now they say you can do just about anything you want? How did openra work without this license ?

OpenRA was written from scratch and just uses the assets from the free game.

This is the source of the original game
