The Wide World of Baseball -- NEW DOWNLOAD

By the 2080's, baseball's stranglehold on the world of sports has only grown. Welcome to the newest edition of the Wide World of Baseball, featuring big changes for OOTP 27.

Disclaimers: Many of the teams and logos used in this save were not made by me; that credit belongs (but is not limited to) txranger, knuckler, hurricanekevin, 20_range, and other brilliant users of this forum. I have not played this league extensively as a GM, so I can't guarantee anything about that experience. Any feedback is welcome. Some translations (i.e. team names, city translations) may be a bit off, I'm not a linguist, I'm just a guy who can type stuff into Google Translate. This is a pretty large file, make sure you have plenty of disk space before proceeding. Hope you enjoy!

Save it in your quickstart_games folder, then create a new save by starting a quickstart game. It should automatically pop up then.

Aside from skins, nothing is ever on Add-On Central. Just click the download link and if it is a quickstart, move the file to the quickstart folder.
