Deadball: Baseball With Dice (Second Edition)

Deadball: Baseball With Dice (Second Edition)

2022·W.M. Akers

1 - 2 players
15 - 30 min
Medium weight: Teach it in one sitting

From BoardGameGeek

Welcome to the second edition of Deadball: Baseball With Dice! Based on simple real life statistics, Deadball is a fast-paced tabletop game whose straightforward mechanics have made it a hit with baseball fanatics and new fans alike. This fully-revised new edition of the core rulebook makes the game easier than ever to learn and play. Even better, it's nearly finished-it has already been sent to the printer and we are only awaiting the first proof to make it final. A 1-2 player game, Deadball takes about 30 minutes to play and can star players from history, present day, or your own imagination. Since its release in 2017, fans have used Deadball to replay classic World Series, to create dream teams, and to design beautifully crafted fictional leagues. Whatever you love about this sport, Deadball will bring it to life. For a taste of how it plays, check out the free quick start guide or grab a pay-what-you-want copy of the first edition. And once you've pledged, check out the first backer update to get a look at the new rules. This book, which replaces both the original Deadball: Baseball With Dice and Deadball: 1909, contains everything you need to play the game, including: Complete rules for the game's Modern and Ancient eras, allowing you to recreate games played any time from 1900 to today. Instructions for team generation using real or fictional players. Updated rosters and player descriptions for the legendary Southern Circuit, an eight team league of misfits and eccentrics whose story is being told in 2022 and 1913. Two new campaigns for Nine Game Pennant, a fast-paced mini-campaign that drops you right into the heart of the fight for the Southern Circuit title. All the digital supplements you need to get going, including blank scoresheets and the invaluable quick reference guide. -description from the publisher
