I wouldn't tell anybody I was a Yankees fan. Just kidding,thanks for playthrough. Good job. 👍
"No, no I can't. Me smart."
I think I'll use this line for so many things in my life from now on!
Great explanation.
Thanks for the video. I'm going to go play a solitaire game right now.
I'm late. 3 days ago I knew next to nothing about baseball but had just watched a video about a pdf game on Drive_Thru rpg called "Deadball." Bought the game before I'd even got to the end of the video! In England, a popular game is Rounders. You have a batter, a thrower/bowler and 4 bases to run around. That is all I knew about baseball. Since then I've consumed many videos on the rules of baseball and watched an entire World Series game from 7 years ago.
As a boardgamer of 25 years (purely solo), My collection includes many Sports and/or sports replay games. having watched your video, i'm now hooked on a, to me, brand new sport and game. Currently trying to learn all the lingo...surprisingly hard as baseball videos and those about baseball board games all presume that the viewer knows what all the terms mean. Thanks for your upload. Really well explained and I'll definitely be getting this!
I'm so glad you're enjoying this awesome game! (And also the wonderful sport of baseball.)
@@BeyondSolitaire Yes. Really looking forward to learning all about MLB and it's history. Since commenting though, I could only find Baseball 2045 in one place and they wanted the equivalent of about 160 USD for it! Wish I'd bought it when it first came out. Disappointing but maybe it will be reprinted someday. Thanks for replying.
Enjoyed the video. Makes things much clearer. 2 Question: when doing the 2-3 buy rounds before the World Series, does the card you buy become the first of the next 6 you draw towards the next buy round? And does the card you used for extra innings count towards the buy round, giving you seven cards?
Thanks for the rules explanation and runthrough.
Boy, I think the game designers made a mistake in setting the base runners' colors. Red and blue often symbolize Hot and Cold. I would have therefore set the runners colors as follows:
Fast: Red;
Average: White;
Slow: Blue.
Their color choice is so strange to me that I stupidly even double-checked you. Of course you had it right though.
I never thought of this! Thanks for sharing. Also, it's totally reasonable to double check me-I make stupid mistakes all the time. :P
Thought the exact same.
so after initial buy rounds you simply shuffle all cards into the deck?
Instead of that mini-game market round, why not just pick a better card to add to your team to make the team stronger. It just seems like extra work and artficially extending the game doing the market steps to beef up your team. The only part of this vid that seemed clear is on the field play. However, the idea of solo mode in this game in general is weird; its 2 teams hitting, on 2 different field boards. No concept of pitching, strikes, balls, outs. Its more like a “hitting derby” game.
Thanks for watching! I'd say that the market round forces you to build your team more strategically because often the "best" cards in terms of gameplay won't do enough for you on the market during the next buy round-you are forced to choose between acquiring a superstar or two and building a more balanced team. The "streamlined" approach to baseball, with only hits threatened and outs achieved, applies to both the solo and multiplayer versions of this game.
New York Yankees...eww...😉
I DO WHAT I WANT! :P
