I dont like using them but when I do you have a choice to use the chart options or the move on the card Why should I roll to see if I hit a level 3 movie when I already have Ex:Spike Piledriver-3 and I am already on 3 If I am on 2 but can try for level 3 then I might go for it This is exactly my thoughts on it & exactly how I play the game at home. Way to go Jim Steel!!! Nicely done!!!

Why should I roll to see if I hit a level 3 movie when I already have The original move is for basic rules, the options are forthe "advanced" rules, that is the difference. Yeah, it's not like you have a choice of 3 moves there. If there were only basic rules printed on the card, that move would be all that was there ("1. reverse knife-edge-3"). But if you only had advanced rules on the card, then instead of "1. reverse knife-edge-3 (ch G)" it would just say "Choice G." But I'm sure Tom wouldn't want to print two sets of cards, one with basic and one with advanced, so that's why they're crammed together on the same card. Make sense? Hope so.

And while we are on this topic, there is something I think CAW fans might want to consider: I have heard people who have their own CAWs say that since they don't use the charts, then they don't put chart options on their CAWs. That works fine if you just plan on being the only one to use the CAW. But, when you then share the CAW and have hopes that others will use them in their feds, you might want to take into consideration that some people want to have the charts. And thus, if you do not include them, you take that option away and some people may not use your CAW because of that simple reason. There are many, many famous CAWs out there that I don't use in my bootleg fed just for the simple fact that they don't include the choice charts (or horrendously violate other guidelines of creation to the point where it makes them IMO unfair and not fun to use.) I'm more likely to use mid-card level CAWs that follow the rules of creation than main event CAWs that don't use (ag)/(pw) designations, or choice charts. I may be the only one but I prefer that all the wrestlers be on the same playing field as far as game rules are concerned.

From a slightly different perspective, sometimes I consider the choice charts when putting together the wrestler stats.
For LOW, I try to consider if there are any "built in" feuds a wrestler might have or the type of wrestlers he would normally face. That could make the difference between a C/F or D/E choice on the card.
The problem is, I never consider what the listed moves on the choice chart are, and Chad or Cory will give me hell for using a choice where one of the possible moves is either (a) already on the wrestlers card somewhere else or (b) completely unrealistic for the wrestler in question.
I guess my point is, the choice situations are part of the overall design and strength of the card.
