It would not be an exact replica of what you were going for, but it would allow you to continue work on the project, and finish it after this lawsuit resolves.
Not enough. You cant use their Data. For alot of thinks you need to mod the client. You are not allowed to do that.
Thats why u have to code everything from scratch. Create new models, new textures, new gui.
You need to create a whole new MMORPG from scratch. Because alle the data, the client, the names, the story everything is under the trademark of blizzard.
