New update : I created a blog on internet :

http://sportsurtable.blogspot.com/

this blog will speak about all table sports : miniature football of course, but also table soccer, table hockey, and certainly some table racing too (h0 scale slot car racing ) or even carrom (indian wood billard)

the goal is to purpose some french speaking content, with easy to understand sports (hockey, soccer) to bring them ALL on miniature football !!!

But the real real goal is to create interest LOCALLY and CREATE A MINIATURE SPORTS CLUB/LEAGUE. I'm having fun with you sharing and chatting on the internet, but I really want to make real gaming in real life, not only solo scrimmages and casual gaming with family or not really interested friend.


In the future I'll certainly share some articles with the MFCA : translations of my english articles, mainly.

Hi,

I added some links to MFCA FRANCE, the section Weirdwolf created for french articles.

http://sportsurtable.blogspot.com/20...ca-france.html



I think it's a better idea than copying articles from one website to another one. I believe, for miniature football, that I'll continue to create articles mostly for the MFCA (mfca france, mfca.org, and tweak) and I will just put "teasing" articles on my blog.

I believe in MFCA purpose, so I think making it as international as possible is the best solution.

Default demo teams

Keeping the french crusade in mind, I re-worked my Niners offensive squad (+optional players), and added easy to read positions names.

Here's the current results. You can see that my Steelers squad is not ready

I continue my french crusade, wit an article I wrote on one of the best football blogs here in France :

http://elitefoot.blogspot.com/

I also created a topic on "Trictrac" community forum. That forum is dedicated to all the boardgames. Not only the fantasy and scifi figures wargames (wargames boards where I didn't find really success in my attempts to make the game known...), BUT all the games and simulations you can play on a table : racing, sport, historic, fun, etc...

I already found a lot more interest than in any other (us football, wargames related websites) place, and interesting questions about the game.

Now cross fingers...

Good luck Dimitri!

What we do when demonstrating Subbuteo over here, is just make sure we have an extra table or two set up, and when people come take a look at it we get them to physically try it out.

We never worry about the specifics of the game (such as timing etc) all we do is let them play around with the game and get a feel for it, and if they ask questions we answer them and we also give our contact information so that we can get them all the details.

Have fun showing it off!

We'll see, there is already a lot of curiosity, but curiosity is not enough especially to enter such a hobby in a country like France

But I have to try.
