With HardBall Wars, the decisions as a manager are all yours. You decide when to steal bases. You decide when to Hit and Run or Sacrifice the runner to the next base. You'll make the call when to intentionally walk the opposition’s slugger, or when to bring the infield in to cut down a runner at the plate. You'll make the call as when to attempt a squeeze bunt or play for the big inning. You'll make the call to bring in the lefty specialist to face the opposing left hand slugger, or stick with your right hand throwing slider. With HardBall Wars, you may even be ejected from the game! Nearly every situation that faces a major league skipper is replicated in the game.

The primary strength of GOAL! Football is it's ease of play. GOAL! Football was the first tabletop game with individual players that could be played in an hour, while keeping stats. The game also featured a unique audible system for quarterbacks. As Dr. Steele would explain in the rule book, "Every quarterback, pro or college, is more than just a line of statistics and for this reason GOAL! Football rates quarterbacks for their ability to read defenses and make big plays under pressure". As a coach, the GOAL! gamer has 3 unique rushing plays (Inside, Off Tackle and Sweep) and 3 unique passing distances (Short, Medium and Long) on offense. On the Defensive side of the ball, a coach can call for a balanced defense, a defense aimed at stopping the pass and a stacked defense to stop the ground game.
Fast Action Football, as the name would suggest, uses a Fast Action Deck to resolve games. The game is a full-featured, play-by-play game. Don't mistake this for a quick play or drive-by-drive game. The game is tailored to the solitaire gamer, plays in under an hour, and features individual players.
In GridIron Wars, every skill position player is rated to perform as they did in real life. You'll be able to compile full statistics for every offensive player. On defense, you'll be able to track individual player stats for interceptions and sacks .

With the 2020 Year Book, you can complete a replay of EVERY 2020 Professional Tournament. If you choose, you can also play the intended schedule for the season.

If you play the 2020 season as it played out this will not be a factor, and you will get realistic results. If you play the schedule as it was intended, you will also get very plausible results. Given the nature of the unprecedented season, we wanted to let you, the gamer, have the best of both scenarios. No other tennis game comes remotely close to offering that kind of flexibility!

Each season is 1 printed page, so we recommend the E-Book version. If you do require a printed season set, we do offer the 2020 and 2021 season available as a package.
Ultra Quick Pro Basketball is really two games in one.
We offer you the familiar method employed in Ultra Quick College Hoops, which resolves a game in two rolls of the dice, and a quarter-by-quarter method, which closely resembles the method employed in Ultra Quick Hockey. The Quarter-by-Quarter method has provisions for "Big Games" as well as "Bad Games" and features a very unique and simple season normalization process.
We added the quarter-by quarter method as it provides a little more drama as the game unfolds, and only adds a slight bit of gaming time. The quarter-by-quarter method also allows you to play cross-era match-ups efficiently and accurately, with our season normalization ratings, so you can easily match-up teams from yesterday and today and get unbiased results.
Both methods are accurate and as the name implies, both methods play ultra-quick!
