Hi guys, I was looking at COTG wiki and saw in 2126 roster a character called Skwish. Who is he? Obviously something to do with Plethador but wondered why he enters the roster.
Looks like he was a promoter SE but as far as I can see there is no way to get him unless anyone knows? I play only the digital game table so prob even less chance of grabbing him for that. I wonder if anyone can share a brief bio, maybe stats so I can maybe plug that hole in my Fed
Also does anyone have a list of pre 2087 characters that may of been special edition/limited release? I do have early classics and all the classics set releases so have the roster to play those years which I’m doing at the mo (roster is a bit thin at times]. But wondered if other characters exist from that era that are cannon (maybe special edition release I may of missed). I don’t subscribe to promoter so prob a few things get past me.
Cheers, Wayne

Skwish was never an official card. He did have a small chart in one of the booklets. There was an unofficial card released at one of the cons.
No pre 87 characters that are "official" Jack Hood did have a card that was part of the Genesis book but I doubt it's obtainable in any form at the moment.

Ok thanks mate, understood. I’ll re review the booklet for Skwish.
That’s good re pre 2087. I’d just be a bit bummed if I play it all out only to find more official cards lurking out there. I have that Jack Hood card somewhere that came with Genesis

Hey Wayne,
I can't help you with anything on Skwish, as I'm still playing the EC era (life gets in the way, LOL).
As for the EC-era, a couple things that might interest you...
-In 2016, a GWF 30th anniversary 6-pack was released. 4 cards were re-imagined versions of Lord Nexus, Killer Queen, Comrade Terror, and Commander Sam. The other 2 cards were new characters, Red Talon and Duke Of Destruction. "Officially" they were only around for a few weeks in 2087 but I plan to use them in 2086 just to get more use out of them. I'm not sure if this 6-pack is still available or not.
-In 2008, former board member LWPD put together a set called 'Lost-Found Stars Of The Classics Era" (L-FSCE). All the characters are promoter creations and the purpose was to use the characters to fill out your EC fed. I believe there were about 25 characters in all. I have a Word doc containing all the art and stats if you want it (it was a free set so I have no problem sharing it).
-On that note, I also play a WGX fed and use a few of the L-FSCE characters in that as well.
-I used the Jack Hood card for one year in my GWF EC fed. Pretty fun but he either got DQ'd or dominated the roster so one year was enough, LOL.
I hope that helps!

Hi mate, thanks so much. Yes like you I am playing EC and trying to connect the dots to my modern Fed which began in 2087 (now reached 2100) to have full history. I have the Talon, Duke set but had no idea about the lost found stars and would absolutely love to see that if that is ok. What is best to get this, PM email?
Cheers Wayne

the LFSC-E characters were extra character for classics that were sold through the original GWF Digital Promoter still available for purchase.

Ok thank you. I think on that basis it’s best I look into making a purchase of this

Sorry to revisit guys. I logged into COTG online to look at promoter prime. What one do I order as could see links for 2014, 15, 16 but the card previews don’t look like they are anything to do with lost found EC guys
Cheers

Its the online promoter issues that the card are on. They are cards to print out and is not on the online simulator
