Filsinger Games Roll Up

We continue our journey to GalactiCon with the owner of the streak, the "Undertaker" of the 'Con himself, Mike Fortune! Mike has great stories beginning with the very first GalactiCon all the way up to present day. Plus, great tales of Canadian wrestling, booking strategies, house rules, and so much more.

We also go over the latest teasers, news, and notes from Fed HQ.

In this episode of Roll Up, we get an in-depth chat with Rob Beaubien on the creation of the latest FTR expansion. Hear about the psychology behind a moveset, the logic of choosing specific choice charts instead of others, and the balancing of talent to create epic matches. We'll also go over story notes from the booklet and throw a spotlight on some of our favorite moments. In addition to the main event, we get Rob's thoughts on card mechanics - his response may surprise you - Galacticon memories, and more.

We've got a big episode that kicks off with some breaking news about Future Shock CWF 2117. Then we dive into Uncharted Territory's LOW Draft for some analysis on the team's picks. What surprised us? Who reached? Who got the biggest value? Which roster holds the most promise? And which classic wrestling bookers does Sam think our UT promoters align with based on their picks? All this and, of course, so much more.

Check out Uncharted Territory's LOW Draft episode [here](https://filsingergames.proboards.com/thread/22477/uncharted-territory-episode-27).

Follow @FilsingerGames on Twitter for all the latest and @kopw72 for Sam's wrestling related news and notes.

We are back with a jam-packed episode! We go over the recent teasers, but the real meat and potatoes of this extravaganza is our in-depth look at the FTR roster with Rob Beaubien. We go from the very first set all the way up to the recently released FTR: Suspects from COTG Prime 2021 Q1. Rob lets us in on his creative process once again to talk about the highs - and, believe it or not, lows - of the roster. Who needs an update? When should a character get an update vs. a story refresh? Who are our favorites from the cards released thus far? How can you get your hands on a certain special edition card that not listed on the store?

**Of course, Rob didn't just come on to talk characters, he also dropped in to unleash 3 big bombshell announcements on the Filsinger Games Universe! What can we expect from the Q3 releases? Who's getting an update? And, stay tuned until the very end, to hear the plans for the future of FTR when Rob retires from the creative side in 2022!**

All of this, plus so much more.

We also touch on our upcoming episode as universes collide and we begin our first crossover with Uncharted Territory!

Sam, Todd, & Mike are here to recap the weekend that was Road to Galacticon! All the announcements, reveals, tournament winners, and more. Plus, we put the Spotlight on "Ringside Personnel" cards through the years. We discuss our favorite authority figures, interviewers, referees, and more!
