I have to be honest. The Razorball game is one that if we were debtless and had profit to play with ... I'd talk to SF and see what it would take to roll the game out.
My guess based on Elfball .... the board and the packaging cost stopped the project. There is a reason that Elfball is a pizza box game. The packaging to do a finished Toys 'R Us style box was $50000 USD when we got bids. That alone could have scared them off.
We will I think before the end of the year be adding another fantasy sports game to our store along with miniatures to support it. Two teams of 5 players (unique poses for each player). If sales justify it ... we'll expand to include other teams.
Ramsay and I started discussing with the sculptor seriously yesterday about starting the sculpting for the 10 figures. I also just sent off my review comments on the rules for the game this morning and some suggestions I had for modification.
So we do have another sports game coming hopefully by year end ... and then we go from there.
When (not if .. when) Impact! has the partner and credit card debt paid off ... we definitely will have more options to play with for expanding the store.

With the new Zug model I thought we would see Ro Sham Bo rules coming out anytime now. Maybe Impact could jump on that. _________________ Zlurpee Forums

I get the cannon fire, and the island, but what do chariots have to do with pirates, and where did they get horses from?
It would be better with shipwrecked pirate captains in rickshaws, pulled by crew members. Dodging mortar fire on a deserted island. _________________ "I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody."

What about a Mini re-enactment version of TVs Deadliest Warrior? I realise that it's not a sports game and there are dozens of dozens gladitorial games out there, but a brand named game would seem to have a broader market appeal. _________________ Thom. . .
