Football Legends board game - base set
After two editions of Friday Night Legends (the high school football board game) and one edition of Saturday Legends (the college football board game,) we present Football Legends - the first ever combination high school, college and professional football game. With Football Legends you can play any level team from any year based on their real statistics!
Players act as the coach for the chosen team and make decisions as such. Both players select which play to run (in secret) and reveal them simultaneously. The players then look up results on their team sheet.
Football Legends (FL) allows you to play historic teams of the past with team results based on their actual stats. The core of the FL game engine is based on hours of in-depth and meticulous hours of research.
The game system is elegant in its simplicity that allows you to do what you want to do coach and play games with your local gridiron heroes. Players act as the coach for their chosen team and make all the critical decisions like their real life counterparts do. In a matchup between two players, you each simultaneously select which play to run (in secret) and reveal them. FL's elegance comes from its years of development, using a system of a few simple die rolls and simple math of the addition and subtraction of results when the players look up those results on their respective team sheets. Team tendencies in terms of their breakdown in running vs. passing plays are tracked on the simple game day pads. The easy to use individual team chart replicates the strengths and weaknesses of each team.
The flexibility of FL allows you to play whichever games you want. If you just want to play one level of play, you choose the starting pack or the combo pack if you want to try any of the game levels.
