Legends Expansion VII Discussion

[TTX]

Correct. Technically Tragos and Lewis aren't necessarily trying to injure their opponents, they just might.

Some thoughts on the game:
Gotch: slight improvements to defense, just enough to help him tear through threats. Also like the little boost to power.
Hackenschmidt: Offense is slightly improved. I’m looking forward to how his new finishing rule works.
Irslinger: could score sone surprising wins, if he can reach Level 3 Offense. Also best art of the set.
Turk: Defense is slightly better.
Evan Lewis: Defense boosts make him a credible threat.
Ed Lewis: Defense boosts make him a monster.
Gama: Already a monster!
Fenton: Going to be a fun card, but like Turk, I’m not a fan of his DQ move. At least it’s based on moves and not weapons like the hardcore wrestlers.

Oh and while I do love this set, there is one thing I don’t quite understand.
1. George Tragos locks Bob Roop in the Arm Lock and Scissors. Roop taps (I know he didn’t tap out back then, but I’m just using it for the example), and the match is over. But Tragos refuses to let go and Roop ends up with a dislocated shoulder.

2. Evan Lewis locks the Stranglehold on Roop. Roop taps but Lewis refuses to let go. Match is over but Roop suffers an injured neck.

3. Terrible Turk locks the Stranglehold on Roop. Roop taps but Turk refuses to break the hold. Turk gets disqualified; no injuries.

Is that right?

What did Bob Roop ever do to you?

[Shon Maxx]

Lol I was waiting for that. Truth is I just chose him because his name’s easy to write repeatedly.

[TTX]

Seven letters is easier than some of those other names for sure.

The dice appear to have decided they hate Gama, Hackenschmidt and Gotch. All are 1-2 for me right now. Ed Lewis has lost two matches, one to Destroyer and the other to the LWA Champion Buddy Rogers and even the latter felt more like a fluke than Lewis conclusively losing.

[Gunslinger]

Got the new sets in the mail today!

[topdollar]

Nothing in the mail today. Hopefully they'll come on Monday.

The coolest thing about this are the old timey themed charts. That was such a good touch.

[TTX]

Its the look of 605 that totally makes that picture.

The charts are great though I think I may need to get physical ones to use online unless they figure an easier way to use them.
