    im getting batter at paints stripes but use decals for detail on helmets makes them look so much better

    Walt, I agree decals look much better for helmet details,  but I just prefer the "Classic Tudor Look". I am just "Old School" like that (or more probable, just to cheap to buy decals, LOL!!).

    WK4 Standings and Game results in the TnPEFL

    Yeah, I prefer the metal fields also. Was not a fan of the PVC when they first came out. But that was kind of the trend at the time. I think David Roller designed the new game boards for Tudor when Doug Strohm took over Tudor Games. His Rollerboards, with PVC playing surfaces, were gaining wide popularity among the custom board builders at the time. David works for Tudor in Development, still now, I believe. The boards I am choosing to play games on in this solitaire league are from my personal collection of game boards. For the most part this is the first time I have even unpacked some of these gameboards and attempted to play on them. Wasn't sure they were in working condition. SO FAR, I have been very pleased with the way each of these boards have performed. They have produced some very exciting game play action and results.     

    Punts?

    The cards only provide a distance and placement on the field for Kickoffs, Onside Kicks, Punts and Punts from Inside midfield. I also use them to get Field Goal Attempt results and PAT results. I set up kickoff and punt returns much as you do but have the receivers actually run to the ball to make the catch and then adjust and pivot all remaining players to block for the return and cover the return. This system works for me and is very entertaining and adds the excitement of kickoff and punt returns to my solitaire game play action. I plan on making some videos of how to use them in the future. But they are not for everyone and I never try advocate this system over another. 

    Playing the game of electric football for me is just about having fun and playing the game. There is no right or wrong way to play it. The main thing about playing in a league or with a group of fiends is to find a way to play it that everyone can agree on and enjoy the fun and fellowship.

    Chasing the Tweak

    in Base Tweaking

    Posted

    Adding baby oil to boiling water. It alters the chemical composition of the plastic the base is made of. Banned by most  leagues and tournaments. I would not recommend doing this at all!!! it is a quick way to remove flash but the base retains the oil for a very long time and you still have to tweak the prongs. The reason they were banned is they would leave an oily residue on game boards. I have some examples given me by a coach from California over 20 years ago. Vince Petros was the master of this technique.  Pic is some examples of boiled bases next to some regular tweaked bases. DSC00960.thumb.JPG.96e554492c55ee2c25307c32cb4e9f2a.JPGDSC00961.thumb.JPG.c7c4e75a626008796fdfebfba8968b54.JPG
