Looks like an interesting game. Added to my wish list. In real life, in soccr I only have 4 problems: * I am terrible at receiving the soccer * I am terrible at keeping the soccer * I am terrible at kicking the soccer to pass it to someone else * I am terrible at aiming to score So I guess my only option is tabletop soccer.

Still learning the game and just from quickly scanning the rulebook, I already noticed a big mistake in 'The Draft' : the outfield players need to be drawn face UP. Otherwise what's the point of picking cards in the first place, when they're face down it's totally random and you could as well have dealt the cards in 1 go.

Yep, you're absolutely right. Think I was just in the rhythm of doing it face down after the refs and keepers and just didn't pick up on it when I was editing...

Really found this video useful but I'd like to ask your view on some gameplay if I may as I can't get a definitive answer in the rules or forums: If a player is choosing to shoot, say 5 hexes away from goal, and then 2 hexes on the path of the ball, a defender is 1 hex next to said point on the path. This means they can deflect the ball and should they be successful, do you think the deflection count starts from the point of the shot path the ball was deflected from, or from the hex the defending player who deflected it is on? The reason I ask is because I had a situation where this happened and it was assumed it'd be from where the ball is on the shot path, but the direction was back towards the player who deflected it, and a distance of 1 meaning it'd be deflected to this player. We felt this didn't feel right as a ball can't really deflect as such to themselves so we thought maybe the rule would be to deflect from the player instead, meaning this wouldn't happen. What's your view?

Sorry for the late reply, haven't been very well recently... I believe you were correct with your interpretation of the rules even if thematically it may not ring true. I guess, you just have to think of it as a blocked shot, rather than a deflection. With that said, it looks like they've updated the rulebook now so, on a deflection, you roll a dice to determine whether it goes at goal, out for a corner, etc so maybe check that out.

@@theboardmasters5800 interesting you mention that rule as I think I must have found the same book as you before I started playing and that confused me due to the board having the loose ball direction markers. I asked the maker of the game and they confirmed that the book I had wasn't relevant any more so perhaps that rule you mention is an old one?

@theboardmasters5800 Жыл бұрын

@winorbin8478 possibly but that is the up to date rulebook on the website so I'd be surprised if it was out of date...

@theboardmasters5800 Жыл бұрын

@winorbin8478 think the one I found is the old rulebook so disregard that. Reread the rulebook and it states that deflections are measured from the hex the ball was supposed to pass through so, if it had passed through the defender and he deflected it, it would start from him but, as it was an adjacent hex, it starts from that hex. Of course, if you don't like the rule thematically, feel free to change it.
