Legends Online Roster - SPOILERS

[jasonjaconetti]

Well, it would seem that if you want the game to grow more, you have to hit the wrestlers that most people would have some connection to. I mean, this game is being aimed (mainly) at a crowd that started watching during the 1980's and 1990's. I'm not saying that the older guys (turn of the century) are not important, but guys like Andre, Bundy, and The Road Warriors are iconic wrestlers that people remember.

I agree. My legends fed is primarily composed of guys from the 80's and 90's. I do have a 'Hardcore Legends' team of wrestlers that strike my fancy from the older eras though.

I am not arguing with you, Jason, but you have to have Gotch & Londos in this release. Those guys are so important to the history of wrestling. I understand if Hackenschmidt, Pesek & The Terrible Turk come later.

I am actually pretty pumped to see Buff as part of this initial release.

I might actually buy a few of the CAW cards to make sure that all of my favorites are in right off the bat. I plan to run my fed almost exclusively Online now. I love playing with the dice but I just can't seem to find the time. It is so much easier to get through a full card in one night using Online.

Pike, I didn't think you were argueing the point. I just makes sense to use the more current guys to hype the game to a new audience. The shame is that the LOTF guys will not get a release (yet) here.

I was happy to see Konnan and Al Snow. I love their cards and using them in my fed. Now, I am not speculating here, but there are 2 pretty recent guys that would be great to have...even more recent than the guys who wrestled in the '90s into the turn of the century.

It was also nice to see that we got the Kangaroos and Road Warriors, because they will have some wars!

[pikemojo]

Agreed. Getting the Kangaroos & the Road Warriors will be great. There are a few more tag teams that would be great to see.

You know, the great thing is, even if some of my favorites are left out, that just leaves some great names to come for future LOW Online releases.

I wonder how long we will wait in between LOW Online releases. I also wonder how often there will be new pdfs released with the Promoter Online.

[jasonjaconetti]

Both good points. The Chris Hero pdf was a nice surprise. I already had the Bock card, but still a great add in.

I have been trying to think of whom I could tag Andre with to create the team like the one Haku and Andre formed in the WWF - the Colossal Connection (obviously I would need someone to replace Haku). I guess it will depend on who is announced in the next wave tomorrow, but as of now not sure.

[inquisator]

How about King Kong Mosca ........for your colossal connection.....

Good cross section of talent so far..........i really do want to know about the extras (the manager (could it be the Dark Menace himself?), and the so called fun card.....)

3 days and counting.....
