And I'm not serious, btw.

Hmmm..interesting though. I wonder if the actual managing aspects as far as in game strategy is concerned might actually be deeper than OOTP.??

My bet is that the tactical choices - in the running game, in the bunting game, defensive choices, fielder positioning choices - will exceed that of OOTP, which has never been that strong tactically.

We'll get a good idea of how niche this niche market is.

Earl Weaver Baseball had a lot of sales, is in the gaming Hall of Fame, and helped in the establishment of EA Sports. Things could get interesting.

This looks interesting. I will follow it. Thanks for the heads up.

That game was the mother lode to me.

TLR 3 is my 2nd favorite baseball game of all time behind OOTP 13. If it has graphics it may be worth checking out at some point, but I am fairly committed to Markus and Co.
