2011-12 EPL

Posted on by

Since I tend to play more Dice United than any other of my soccer games, I’m going to start the 2011-12 Tottenham Hotspur English Premier League season.

That season came with the game in the first place, or more specifically, 4 top teams from that season, and the remaining 16 were available as a separate purchase.

My first sample match, Spurs v. Arsenal, which was actually the 6th game of the season, resulted in a 2-nil win for Spurs.  I’ll throw that result out and play it in the correct order.

First up for Spurs:

edit: Away against Manchester United.

I see that this is listed as the first played game, but round 2 of the 2011-12 season.  Everton was supposed to be the first match, but for some reason it was actually the 20th.

Stay tuned!

1962: Formula 1

As much as I enjoyed playing Lacorsa, I felt the pull back to the first Formula 1 racing game I played.  But I wanted to stick to the same era as Lacorsa.

Behold, Shapeways with the solution!

These are 4 of the teams/cars that competed in the 1962 Formula 1 Grand Prix season.  Left to right:

  • Porsche 804
  • BRM P57
  • Ferrari 156 “Sharknose”
  • Lotus 25

I’ll paint them up in proper team colors and use the Formula DE boardgame to play out the season.

The teams/drivers:

Stay tuned!
