I was kind of sad to see Slack retire. He could have won a number of fights even at 'end' with the dismal field that I had. Thankfully, bodies good and bad are starting to re-populate the field. The late 1750s were nearly the end of this universe for me with the drought of new faces. Things really will ramp up in the 1760s and even moreso thereafter as the recorded fighters increase.
