It's similar in that way to RC or slot car racing - competitive sport, expensive to participate, mimics a real life sport in minature, requires hands-on activity (no video gaming) and strategy, and allows modeling and tweaking. EF is closer to these hobbies due to the tweaking nature of the game.

In D&D or Warhammer you can't tweak or gain an advantage with the equipment. If you tweaked one of the dice it would be called cheating. However, in RC cars or slot car racing, modifiying and tuning your ride is part of the program.

Perhaps we might want to buy some banner ads on some of these other websites where potential coaches may gather... Wargaming sites, RC cars, Model Railroading, Fantasy Football, etc. It could really allow us to cross pollenate.

great observations and very good suggestions.
