Gentlemen:

The role-playing version of Title Bout is still on the drawing board. The question isn't whether or not it will be done but more a matter of when. Due to Andreas' committment to the baseball game, Title Bout has been put on the back-burner, as far as a major re-design goes.

My goal was always to have two clearly defined titles: one being a strict simulaiton with NO role-playing features to speak of; and another being a role-playing game exlusively (with the ability to port over the "real fighter" database).

However, the "push" by so many of you to include this and that (like aging) has made the game into something that inches closer and closer to a combination.

We are currently looking at a way to add enough modules to turn Title Bout into one complete package, allowing owners to use it strictly as a simulation, strictly as a role-playing game or pick and choose from both types and come up with a game that includes the elements they wish.

More on this issue later. I just wanted to provide all fo you with the latest thoughts on the matter.
