The PC Replay Baseball game plays just like the
Replay Baseball board game!

  • All official game rules and options have been included, so you can play the PC game using your favorite options from the board game.

  • The current Chart Book and full Rare Play Book are built into the game and you’ll see the same results as if playing the board game.

  • We include both 6x6 and 1x6 (tall) pitcher cards to play either way, as in the board game (including a unique new "hybrid" style of play that displays the familiar Tall Pitcher Cards behind the Batter Cards, but the pitcher's grade changes with the roll of the blue die (with the 6x6 card ratings in background mode).  This option, only possible with a PC, combines the simplicity of using the tall pitcher cards with the added precision and variety of outcomes of the expanded 6x6 pitcher grades!
 

  • See the batter and pitcher cards on the screen.

  • "Roll" the dice on the screen.

  • See the Chart Book results on the screen, including any additional results (Bunt Charts, Third Base Coach Charts, Action Charts, etc.) when needed.

  • See the ‘Replay-style’ Line-up Cards and Ballpark Cards on the screen.
 

• Play solitaire, making decisions for both teams, as in our board game.

• Play solitaire, making decisions for one team while the PC game manages your opponent.

• Allow the PC game to manage both teams while you watch the action.

• Play face to face with an opponent at your PC... or play online against a fellow Replay PC gamer anywhere in the world!

As you play at the PC, all pertinent stats are tracked, so that after the game you'll have a complete box score and player stats.
 

l

Subbing screens allow you to make informed in-game decisions.

• When choosing a reliever, you’ll see the opposition’s next 3 scheduled hitters’ cards, and clicking on each reliever’s name will display his card.

When choosing a pinch-hitter, you’ll see the opposition’s current pitcher’s card, and clicking on each player’s name will display his card.  You’ll also see your team’s current defensive lineup.

l

Plays will play out logically, just as if rolling the dice!

Here’s a view of a play using the ballpark effects option.

Beyond playing the game straight-up on your screen, we also include these flexible options to let you enjoy the game in any way you choose:

• If you want the tactile feel of 'rolling the bones', you can roll real dice on your tabletop and easily enter each dice roll into the program with a few key strokes, then watch the action unfold!

...OR...

l

• You can play the board game as usual with your cards and dice at your PC, and use the PC game as your personal statistician!  We've built in a simple-to-use play scoring system so you can roll the dice, look up the charts manually and key in the play results (or key in the play-by-play later, after manually rolling the game).

• With this option, the PC game compiles all your stats (and even play by play) while you enjoy the board game as always!

...OR...
 

l

• You can play the board game away from the PC  by using the PC game to set your pre-game lineups and print out a pre-filled Replay-style scoresheet, complete with players and ratings (a great time-saver)!  After you play the game, you can come back to the PC to manually enter the box score (including fielding stats, if you track them).  The program then updates all your players' stats after each game!  You can even do this for a series of games, first printing out your pre-filled scoresheets, playing the games, then coming back to the PC to enter player stats and game summaries for a series of games.
 

No matter how you choose to play or enter your stats, you’ll have access to several statistical reports!

Each season has its own “notebook”, with pages for many statistical categories, so you can ‘flip’ through the pages and check standings, league leader boards, and many team and player stats...
 

l

Each team has its own section of stats within each season, organized for super-easy viewing so you can ‘flip’ through the team pages and check each team’s current roster, leaders, player usage, and many batting, pitching and fielding stats...
 

HTML Capability
You’ll also be able to save, share and print much of the info throughout the program, with a simple ‘click to HTML’ button on each screen.  Sample

Version 3 - New Features!

Replay Network and Game Simulcast

•   Play a day’s games simultaneously

•   Replay Network scoreboard shows scores from all games during play

•  Switch between games at the end of each half inning,
     taking control if desired

•   Pause games to view/play after current game is completed

•   Replay Radio calls the game switch

This feature has gotten the most "wows" from our playtesters!  Before beginning a day's games, you can select this option, which will display scores of the rest of the day's games while you're playing a particular game.  At any point in the current game, you can click on any out-of-town score to "check in" on that game!  The new game will appear on screen and you can begin to roll the dice and play as though you had been at that park all along.  See another game elsewhere on the board that looks like it's at a tense moment?  Just click on that score, and you'll be instantly transported there!

Replay Report Goes Daily

This is a nice enhancement that provides a daily summary on screen-
a daily version of the weekly Replay Roundup!  Whenever you first load a season, this will be the first page on screen, so you can see at a glance where your replay left off last time you played that season.

•  Report is now the default opening screen after loading a season

Adjustable Player Usage

For gamers who like to create their own what-if scenarios, this optional screen available from each team's main screen allows the gamer to alter playing time parameters from actual.  For instance, you can place Roy Oswalt in the Philadelphia rotation all season (adjusting other Phils starters' starts as well) to see how he'd fare.

•  Adjust the usage of players on team on new usage screen.  Trade for a starter mid-season?  You can now control how often he pitches for the remainder of the season

Improved Manager Profile Instructions

This area has been greatly enhanced to allow Replay managers (including draft league managers) to set many different aspects of player usage and in-game strategy for their teams from each team's screen.  This is a big step toward easy-easy-easy and very customizable road instructions for league players.

•  Individual player instructions for in-game strategy and substitution usage

•  New single screen display for batting, pitching and fielding instructions

Improved League Management Tools

This area is specifically meant to make a league commish's job much easier!  (As well as simplifying the "paperwork" for all league players!)

•  Import profiles or commissioner files and the season will update automatically

•  Season can be password protected

•  Specify where profiles are imported from and exported to

Import individual Players into Season

Gamers who like to create their own solo fantasy projects will like this one! 
In Version 3, when creating a new league, you'll be able to bring into
your project any player and/or any team from any season you own.

•  Import any player from any season to the unattached player list

•  Import any full team to the unattached player list
