Glazier Chalk Wars - Need Recommendations!

1. OT, HS rules

2. 2 Min drill, 1:35 left offense needs TD 2 timeouts -40. Offense how do you score, D how do you stop them

3. Coming out, offense has ball on 2, :35 seconds left and defense has 2 timeouts. offense how do you get the 1st down, defense how do you stop them

I want to see football DnD. Start with a 2-minute still from the -20, down 4. O declares a formation, D declares a front, both call plays and submit them to the dungeon master. He adjudicates the result of the play. You’d need to think through the logistics of it, DM would probably have to be the HC and his OC and DC would be playing, just so he can understand his own O and D without needing a lengthy explanation. You’d also need to have a ready list of available calls from both before the game so they’re not making stuff up in the fly. But I think there’s something workable there.

explanation of the though process of a play call based on a given scenario ... not just "I would do this." but follow up with "generally vs this we think in terms of _____"... otherwise, it can turn into a pissing contest. my guy may be better so point is moot, or vice-versa. but, i think the "why" is way more important than the "what."

so, rather than just say, "we would throw the smash on 2nd and medium" say WHY they would run that play... i.e. we like it because it gives qb this option vs zone or that vs man, etc etc etc

That game was the equivalent of Madden for all us over 50 guys. My friends and I played the sh*t out of that game in the 70's. We would have whole seasons with playoffs, Super Bowl, the works. Lol. 

coachwoodall The NFL strategy game was similar to that jimmy the greek game, but I think it (in its presentation) it was a bit more detailed. There were maybe 45  Offensive play cards (Running plays, Passing plays, Screen, draw and trick plays) and maybe 15 defensive cards plus a kicking game card.  


The gameplay was as Chris Clement described.   Offensive would pick a play (Offensive card with 80 different sets of results-each set having a result for left, middle, and right hashes ) Defense would pick a defensive card (which had cut out windows for various die rolls , that would reveal various sets of results from the offensive card)   

The defensive cards had 5 different windows on each card, with various probabilities for each window   (one if you rolled a 7 or 12, one if you rolled a 3, one if you rolled a 9,10,11, one if you rolled a 5, one if you rolled a 2,4,,or 8--with 2 being a penalty). 

Based solely on observation, these probabilities did correlate well with the drawn play selections.  For example if the offense selected a screen or draw play and the defense selected a blitz then the some of the higher probability windows had some big yardage plays, and some of the lower probability plays had some big losses.   If the offense selected a basic lead run play and the defense a basic reading defense then most of the potential results were modest gains or losses.
