Print-and-Play

One problem I have is finding time to play games.

A further problem is preparing print-and-play games for play.

Case in point:

I originally purchased this game during PLAAY.com’s 2018 holiday sale, and even printed out the game and the expansion team set that was sold separately.

The original teams:

  • Houston Hombres
  • Los Angeles Lunatics
  • New York Nukes
  • Detroit Rippers

The first 4 expansion teams:

  • Minnesota Chill
  • Seattle Droids
  • San Francisco Heroes
  • Cleveland Stevedores

I let the game sit on a shelf, and every time they released another expansion, I’d get it and print it out, but I only ever cut out the original 8 teams.

By the time I collected the rest of the teams they had released the game as a boxed edition.  And since I already had everything in print-and-play format, I decided against buying the boxed edition.

I finally did get around to cutting out the 16 remaining expansion teams, and have yet to cut out the international expansion teams.

  • Vegas Bada Bings
  • Miami Maelstrom
  • Pacific Dreadnoughts
  • Phoenix Inferno
  • New Orleans Big Fun
  • Chicago Binge
  • Boston Malcontents
  • Denver Wild Blue
  • Dallas TNT
  • Gulf Coast Splash
  • Kansas City Drifters
  • Atlanta Gems
  • Milwaukee Buzz
  • Washington Panic
  • Philadelphia Mongrels
  • Nashville Twang

I did manage to print and cut out the coach cards, and assigned a coach to each of the 24 teams.

Now I just need to figure out a play format, and a league format, though 12 teams per conference and 4 teams per division makes the most sense, I suppose.  At least until I introduce the International teams into the mix.

And I suppose I should play an exhibition game or two so I can learn how the game plays.

Stay tuned!
