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 Play
Board and full Rare Play Book are built into the game and
youll 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!

manage both teams while you watch the action.
Just hit the "play" button and watch the game unfold!

In-game
substitutions are a snap! Pop-up screens provide all the
pertinent info you'll need to make decisions.
To choose a
reliever, click the pitcher spot on the field. Up pops a
window that shows your available pitchers, and you can also
check their usage over previous games and upcoming starts- at
a glance.
Clicking on any potential
reliever will place his card in the pitcher's spot so you can
see if he's the right man for the job, before bringing him in! |

To
choose a pinch-hitter,
click the batter spot on the field. Up pops a window
that shows your available bench players, their main stats and
their replay usage to date.
Clicking on any potential pinch hitter will place his card in
the batter's spot so you can see if he's your best choice,
before putting him in the game! |

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

|
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,
youll have access to powerful and sortable statistical
reports!
Each
season has its own screens for many statistical categories, so
you can click through the season screens 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 click through the team screens and check
each teams current roster, leaders, player usage, and many
batting, pitching and fielding stats...

EXHIBITION GAMES- Just for fun!
Playing a casual game or series couldn't be simpler,
with a one-screen exhibition
setup which allows for playing a game or series between any
two teams in your collection with a few quick clicks.

The
easy-to-read schedule screen shows you the day's games,
so you can decide which games
you'd like to play
or manually score, or
autoplay, or simulcast...

If you're looking for a more open-ended
"what if" replay, you
can now allow the computer (and luck!) to determine injuries
and make roster moves automatically, instead of using
real-life lineups and transactions. In this mode, you
set the roster size limits before starting the replay and the
computer follows these guidelines for the season. You
can still control one or more teams' roster moves, deciding
call-ups and roster moves on the fly, in response to injuries.

Replay Network and Game Simulcast
Play a days games simultaneously...now with batter to batter
updating!
Replay Network scoreboard shows scores from all games during
play
Switch between games at any time, taking
control if desired!
Pause games to view/play after current game is completed
Replay Radio calls the game switch |

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! |
