Re: (TFT) Ideas



I loved Strat-o-matic Baseball.   I had a league set up and slowly played
out the games .. I think I had 6 or 8 teams.  One of my players, Ken Boyer,
was actually batting .809

With enough practice, you could get pretty good at predicting where the
spinner would end up ... which is why dice are better at those kind of
games.
Still, it was a great deal of fun.  I think expansion packs are still
available
for the baseball game - eBay would be the place to start looking.
