Continental Baseball Association

Cole98 · 04-06-2018, 02:24 PM

Seeing all the custom major leagues inspired me to make my own. So I came up with the Continental Baseball Association, it starts in 1972; it is a rogue league like the WHA and ABA, all teams are in Markets either vacated or untouched by the MLB (with a few exceptions).

As a rogue league, it has many differences than the Traditional MLB. It has no subleagues, rather it has two six-team conferences. Draft picks can be traded, the league has a salary cap, and the Designated Hitter is applied universally. It also has a different minor-league system, with two levels; Minor-Pro A & B. There are a total of 5 minor leagues, 2 A and 3 B.

I will release a quickstart after I complete 25 years worth of seasons.

Here is the structure of the CBA in its Inaugural Season
EASTERN CONFERENCE

Brooklyn Jazz
Charlotte Colonials
Hartford Minutemen
New Jersey Devils (Newark)
Toronto Leafs
Washington Senators

WESTERN CONFERENCE

Arizona Desperados (Phoenix)
California Cougars (Sacremento)
Colorado Miners (Denver)
Portland Timbers
Seattle Aeros
Vancouver Whalers

Onto the West

Cole98 · 04-06-2018, 02:47 PM

(Colorado is my favourite from this project)

I just like the Whalers nickname, it's my goto for Vancouver

Those are amazing jerseys, especially love the Toronto Leafs one.

Glad to hear you are going to release a quick start too. In the meantime could you release these graphic files in usable formats?

Certainly here's the Download link, I'm currently working on the minor teams (4 out of 24 done), but all of the CBA teams have graphics up until 1997 (the league added a patch for the 25th season, but it will go away for 1998 in the final version)

Awesome job!! Thanks for creating and sharing with the community!

Just a suggestion, but as well as your 25-year QS it would be cool if you released one from the beginning, for those who like to build their own history.

Looking forward to giving this a go.

Sounds really cool so far, I like those uniforms for the initial season, too. I'm looking forward to trying it out myself.
