Thank you all for the replies and suggestions!

I also forgot to ask if any of the following wrestlers are available in a pack as I didn’t see them on a roster?

Kamala the Ugandan Giant
Hulk Hogan
Ric Flair
Ricky Steamboat
The Junkyard Dog
Ron Garvin
Ron Wright
Ron Fuller (Tennessee Stud)

I’ve subscribed to the YouTube channel and checking that out now.

Unfortunately none of those wrestlers have official cards that have been released by the Filsinger Games. Each and every card that has thus far been released has an official signed release from authorizing the company to make the card. This is kinda spectacular, as we have some HUGE names in the game (Piper, Thesz, Rogers, Stevens, Bock, Brody, Hansen, Angle, Backlund, Hodge, Brisco, Vader, etc.).

I’ve made my first purchase and don’t think it will be my last 😀

I’m going to watch videos and browse here until my order arrives.

I’m sure I’ll have questions once I begin to play.

I’ve got a couple now.

Do folks create any fan-made wrestlers that they make available?

Also, I saw in the video that he was playing on a computer. Is there a computer version as well?

There are SCADS of fan made cards out there, several you can find in the "It's Up to You Promoter" section of the forum. Most of them you'll find as PDF files, a few folks have fan made sets for sale as physical cards, just look around and keep asking questions.

And yes, there is indeed an online version of the game, sold separately, that you can access from the main website.

Grant plays physical cards and dice on some of his videos, such as the Memphis ones.

Just remember that when you play - "It's up to you promoter!" - there are no set rules on how to run a fed. Everyone is great with offering insight on what they do, but make it your own.  Just one example, I roll the PIN rating 3x's to simulate the 1-2-3 count from a ref. Others just roll the PIN rating once.  No right or wrong way to do it. I just like the heightened drama of a 2-count kickout.

Here's  a link to my ancient website where I did a lot of black and white cards. It hasn't been updated in 8 years and some of the cards have mysteriously disappeared (Scott Hall, Hollywood Hogan, and all three Von Erichs), but most are still there in easy to print pdf. 


www.angelfire.com/wrestling3/legendarystars/

The buttons for specific eras also seem to have broken, so you'll need to click "see a listing of all available wrestlers." to get the cards that aren't linked on the landing page. 

....still confused as to how all three Von Erichs could disappear like that. I never got any sort of takedown notice, but I guess it could be. Files for all of those are missing from the web shell entirely and I didn't delete them.....

That's a great idea.   I may actually use that idea.  Make's it more fun, and some matches last longer.

To build on that, due to the shoot nature of this game, DQs can just ruin a match. One option is you could have a limit per wrestler. Like 3 strikes you are out kind of thing. Again, it is up to you!

If you give it a shot, let me know how you like it! It USUALLY will remove the chance of an early successful PIN as well. Having guys kickout when the PIN rating is at 10 on that third roll is actually pretty exciting too. I also allow run-ins & distractions during the PIN attempt. I can roll the PIN twice and before I roll it a third time I will use run-ins and distractions before the third roll. Anything to make the match as good as possible.
