When I got home I checked my mailbox and Legends International was already waiting for me! I still have to sit down and really examine the cards and read the handbook but I can't wait to start using the cards- especially Tiger Mask
minor spoiler (if you want it)
(Tiger Mask has his own out of the ring chart included on the back of the handbook and who I think has the best agility in the game so far- unless I am forgetting someone) and Jushin Liger
minor spoiler (if you want it)
Liger has his own finisher chart on his card. They also both have both regular heavyweight stats and junior heavyweight stats on their cards just like Danny Hodge.
Also, thanks once again to Tournament Master for including the other 4 replacement cards that I needed to continue my LOW fed!

I didn't know that Sir Oliver Humperdink was billed from Reno, NV. Since my LOW fed Major League Wrestling has all its shows now in Las Vegas, I'll have to use that in my fed. Perhaps Humperdink can help manage The Vegas Haters.

But I just wanted to convey my enthusiasm for getting Legends International today by mentioning in only general terms some of the really cool stuff about Tiger Mask and Jushin Liger. |

I just got done reading about Pepper Gomez in the handbook for Legends International. I think I am going to put him on my RAW brand and redo that ladder angle with him and Ray Stevens.
We also sometime soon need to start a thread here about what moves on which wrestlers' cards won't work on Pepper Gomez due to the stipulation on his card.

Perhaps Humperdink can help manage The Vegas Haters. I messaged Humperdink for information when we were working on his card. He said that a few times he was billed from London or other parts of England, but that Reno was primarily his place. I think in real life he's originally from Minneapolis. Glad that it works out for your fed, Vegas! |

At some point, I'm also going to create a House of Humperdink faction. |

Vegas, can Mosca win titles? Atleast secondary titles.
Are the Mongols contenders or pretenders?

He has great power, decent chart ratings, and a possible Add 1 move depending on a die roll stipulation with his elbow pad. He also is the heaviest wrestler in Legends International, although Bepo Mongol is only 4 pounds lighter. But it all depends on dice rolls of course. I'm not sure how The Mongols are going to do. They're of course definitely not on the same level as the Road Warriors, Fabulous Kangaroos, or Midnight Express. I'm about to have an exhibition match between them and The Vachons and I'll let you know who wins. . |

I just had a series of exhibition matches with The Mongols. They defeated The Samoans (Samu and Alofa) by DQ and then defeated The Armstrongs (but they had some trouble, it was a good match). The Mongols also defeated Operation:Pimp (that's the tag team name I use for Hardcore (Danny) Hodge and Steve Corino). But they lost to The Vachons.
I really like The Mongols moveset that was created by Tim Dalton and Chad Olsen. The Mongols always seem to hit their double clothesline move in every match I had with them so far.

I'm pretty sure he started as either a ring crew member or referee (or both!) with the AWA. Glad you like the new card mechanics Mr. Vegas. Get well soon! |

That is correct. On the Mid Atlantic gateway website, SOH talks about this in an interview.

Although I have to go back to the burn unit instaed of work tomorrow morning, getting Legends International in the mail today really made me forget all about my damaged/burned left hand! |

I'm not sure how The Mongols are going to do. They're of course definitely not on the same level as the Road Warriors, Fabulous Kangaroos, or Midnight Express. I playtested them against the Road Warriors a few times in COTG Desktop. They lost more than they won, but their matches were very competitive. |

Yeah, I really wouldn't be surprised to see The Mongols winning a tag team championship in someone's fed. I actually just got done having them wrestle The Fabulous Kangaroos in an exhibition match. The Kangaroos won but only after having lots of trouble against The Mongols. Before I go to sleep tonight, I'll have to do a match between The Road Warriors and The Mongols. |

I did not get priority mail, but live in MA and did not receive mine that quick... Mr. Vegas did you order overnight shipping or something? Hope I get it for the weekend, though! |

I did not get priority mail, but live in MA and did not receive mine that quick... Mr. Vegas did you order overnight shipping or something? Hope I get it for the weekend, though! Yeah, I had some extra baseball cash at the time so I ordered overnight because, unlike some people who have been bagging (criticizing) this set, I honestly was eager to get the next LOW edition Legends International. Also, in addition to having the money for it, the reason I ordered overnight wasn't because I wanted to get my set first but instead because a few of my LOW cards accidentally got ruined and I had to replace them in order to get my LOW fed going once again and I included those replacement cards in my order of Legends International. Edit: Although I did pay overnight, to me Legends International is really worth every single cent that I paid. |
