    Pressure sticks size

    in Passing and Kicking

    To answer your questions:

    1 - Yes, use the blue stick if the distance (helmet to helmet) between the QB and receiver is greater than the red & white stick.

    2 - No, you can place the ball wherever you'd like and angle the receiver in that direction.  Typically you do this to move the receiver towards open field.  Some may do it differently.

    Bases - Tudor outlook

    Thanks for your input guys.  yes, bases are and continue to be the game's, and the hobby's, achilles heel.  There almost certainly can be a better design but I am sure it comes down to cost.  Very good point about people not buying the product and/or giving it up due to what they experienced as a kid when the figures would run in circles and turn around all the time.

    The fact that people had to create their own new rule sets is due to the poor performance of the bases to a great degree.  I do hope Tudor does a deeper dive on this and comes out with even better products in the near future.  The game is still popular and I believe will continue to grow especially as we are relegated to spending more and more time at home these days.

    Video games are getting old and truth is, everything comes full circle.  Older guys want to recapture their youth and everyone had EF.  I look forward to Tudor's improvement in this area.

    Until now bases have always been soft, malleable plastic.  They can be tweaked, but because of they won't always stay tweaked, or at least not they way you want it.  How about experimenting with other materials?  There has been experimentation with board surfaces.  What about a hard plastic base similar to what the figures are made out of?  Aluminum, high gauge sheet metal?  Better yet, how about a radio frequency controlled based that you can maneuver on the fly?  Just some random thoughts.
