Barry Pepper played Roger Maris, Thomas Jane played Mantle. It's a 10 year old or so HBO or Showtime or something film. The idea of a 61* was to differentiate Babe Ruth's mark of 60 homers in a 154 game season and Maris hitting his 61th in the 162nd game of the year. If Mantle had done it there wouldn't have been an *, but Maris wasn't well liked by fans. BTW, I understand there will be a fan get together at Gen Con for 'Battlefield Earth' and the new CCG based on the film. Prowler, you better reserve your ticket before they're gone.

V... Now THAT was awesome. I still have my VHS tape of the original airing of the original V mini-series. (Mazda truck commercials for $6795. Those were the days...)

OK, I refrained for a couple of days anyway but..."Knock Around Guys" with Pepper and Vinny D. Now that was a solid Pepper movie(actually better Diesel movie). kurganfan BUT, this still doesn't make him a GOOD actor or a GOOD immortal. Now, on to GenCon decks... You should play Michael Christian Geoff?!

As for the original V mini series.... The TV series starred a younger General Katana along with Caleb Cole.

VHS?? God I feel old. I did play a MC deck a few years back, 2HG with Fasil. I thought the synergy was solid but I should have tested it for more than 2 hours. I still haven't built a Gen Con deck, but I have the ideas floating around my noggin. BTW got my new cards Monday, the new paper looks great. Well done guys. The wording on Connor's ability gives me some fun ideas. Whatever decks I bring to Indy will probably suck to new and previously unheard of levels of sucking, but I'll be there anyway.

If your going to suck, at least do it spectacularly
