Isn't Blue Chip in Kronos as True Blue? Or is that a Blue Chip from a different timeline? I’ll have to double check to see exactly how it was explained in the Battle Lines handbook, but I believe it’s something along the lines of Johnny Rocket scouting Blue Chip in FTR, seeing his great potential, then bypassing the opportunity to train him instead traveling through time and tracking down Blue Chip in his prime in an alternate universe as True Blue. Johnny being impatient and a little shady, he brings that prime version of Blue Chip to Kronos. So technically two different guys the same way Mayhem and Mayhem Unleashed or Wolf and Lope are the same guy, but still different being alternate universe versions of each other. Hope that helps. Edit/update: From the book “Nobody knows where Johnny Rocket found True Blue. The real story is that Johnny Rocket was scouting FTR in Dimension K for the arrival of Sonny Rocket when he discovered a young wrestler who Johnny personally labeled as “The Future of Kronos”. Anxious and impatient to manage the improving wrestler and wait for him to become a star one day, the always sneaky Johnny Rocket finds a loophole and scores the blue chip athlete from his prime in an alternate universe instead.” So there you go. Officially two different guys. |

That does help! I could actually bring Blue Chip in my play because I started out with True Blue! LoL 🤣 |

FTR just looks like....fun!!! Love the new wrestlers, especially love Blur! Just a well designed story, and some great feuds to boot. The Blur-Workrate feud looks like its gonna be a great one to explore, and really liking Forge's decision to try and win back his belt!
Just a great job all the way around. Promoters, pick up this set if you haven't already, it looks like a lot of fun (and that's what this hobby is all about!).

Well since I didn't buy Legends 8 (Memphis), I'm posting this here: I got all that I ordered today, yay! That's the Shimmer Intro, Shimmer Sets 4 & 5, FTR Complete Bundle, and the Women's International Set! Whew, that's a lot of cards!  I need to get the paperwork done to start all this up and running, so it may take a bit... Got the package here in MA safely though! Who thought I could have a Filsinger Games X-Mas if I hurry up processing the paperwork? Fun times indeed!  Later! Todd C WTIC |

Well, since we found out officially that they're two different guys, Blue Chip might make a debut! Lol

In case you missed it, the FTR Screwjob podcast is up here: filsingergames.proboards.com/thread/23509/roll-ftr-screwjob-rob-beaubienTurns out I do a pretty deep dive on Screwjob (among the rest). Already excited to finally wrap up his story in the near-future. |

So I received my order today. However, I did not receive a booklet for the FTR set, I only received the cards. Did everyone else receive a booklet?
