Description

A unique game based on the early (c. 1860-1890) days of baseball. Games can be played with generic players or with the ratings for the 1876 National League.

Game play is simple, with each player rolling a die, applying individual player modifiers for the pitcher and batter, and then consulting a chart to arrive at an outcome of the at bat. If a "hit ball" results, then another die roll comparison is made between the batter/runner and the fielder the ball is hit to.

In some cases, a play will be resolved after consulting a card that also describes an event in 19th century baseball.

The components are of high quality.
