Matches are ALWAYS dictated by the momentum or 'Heat' one wrestler has over another. The mechanism for lifting always has to be there, and so does the pinning/submission rules. It's the IMAGINATION of the people playing is what makes it, however. I don't expect this to be appealing to someone who's not into wrestling. It just won't work. You need to have some sense of what you're doing for the game to flow properly.That being said, I think a level-based system works as it can reflect the time spent as a character working their way up through the ranks. A Veteran Prestige Class works very well, and I suspect Hardcore and other more niche types will be either standard classes or something similar. I'm assuming a ranking system to qualify for a pay-per-view match or title shot will come into play as well, perhaps based on Reputation?Genysys, were those classes your own doing or extrapolation from what we've seen so far? Btw, the official eight-page promo material flows well in the read, for mine. And there's no tables for moves, though -a- list explaining a nice range of moves would help. To wit: <a href="http://www.deathvalleydriver.com/bbbowm/bbbowm.htm" target="_blank">http://www.deathvalleydriver.com/bbbowm/bbbowm.htm</a>is a comprehensive if somewhat outdated set of pages regarding wrestling moves. That was something I liked about the early 90's game. It was a good grounding for moves. And....TONE COLD! TONE COLD! TONE COLD!! Sorry...I had to do that. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> I was a bit of a fan of Steve Austin in the day....but you mentioned that some things have changed since the original rules you outlined in that forum link? Is that what's gone into the preview PDF I found at Comic Images, or has there been some tweaking? I'm very interested to see if I can place an order soon with my store (I'll buy it for background and 'history book' purposes if nothing else) and I'd love to know more about it, especially multiclassing, etc. Not that I'm wanting to know everything before it's released or anything like that....*chuckles*S.</blockquote>
