Returning To LOW

[lobo]

With COVID, I have more time on my hands & have dug out the LOW cards & resumed playing again.
The sets i bought years ago were the first 7 Legends sets plus Legends of the Future. I can see that I have a lot of catching up to do.
I'll likely get the remainder of the black & white Legends before they become out of print & then consider the color sets.
I have a couple of questions about the color sets.

When comparing the lists of both the color & bw sets of the initial LOW sets, I see some wrestlers in both sets, such as Bobo & the Road Warriors, etc.
Are the ratings in the color set the same as the ratings in the bw set ? Color aside, are the color sets worth the extra dollars ?

The LOW color starter set sells for $27. The LOW color intro set sells for $25. What is the difference between the 2 sets ?
They seem to have the same wrestlers.

I'll likely have more questions later. If the questions I asked in this post have been discussed before, please post a link  & I'll check it out.

The color cards are overall more accurate than the black and white cards and absolutely worth the money.

The difference between intro and starter set i thjnk is one comes with the rules and charts and the other one doesn't?

that is the main difference. Charts vs no charts.

The Color versions are better. There has been a massive amount of footage that has become available and easily available over the last decade and the game has benefited greatly. The Chicago Archive on YouTube alone has probably given us more 50s footage than we ever thought was available.

The game itself has also evolved a lot since then. They have playtested out mechanics that help guys feel more accurate.

Make sure you grab the color cards for Marty Jannetty, Madison Rayne, Brutus Beefcake and Greg Valentine now though. Those are limited numbered cards and they could potentially sell out.

I want to thank all of you for your responses to my post. I definitely will buy the LOW color starter set & check out the charts & rules for the updates.
I've always liked the art work on the bw sets & look forward to seeing what the art work on the starter set looks like.
Thanks again everyone.
