Description

This is a print on demand copy and is not an original copy.

Inspired by the gritty baseball of the early 1900s, Deadball: 1909 is a lightning-fast game for one or two players that uses real stats to bring the ballpark to your tabletop. It is a standalone expansion to the bestselling Deadball: Baseball With Dice. You do not need the original game to play.

This expansion takes Deadball back to an era when home runs were rare, scores were low, pitchers were demigods and the stolen base was king. Featuring new rules for the hit-and-run, the suicide squeeze, and environmental factors such as low light and bad balls, Deadball: 1909 is faster, dirtier and meaner than the original game.

As always, Deadball uses real statistics that every fan knows and understands, like batting average and ERA, allowing new players to pick it up in minutes. The game's rules are easy-to-learn and endlessly customizable, letting you remake the game as you see fit. And Deadball: 1909 is fully-compatible with the original Deadball, making it easy to pit modern players against the legends of 1909.

This book includes basic rules for ultra-fast play, advanced rules for a deeper game, and the complete rosters for the eight team Southern Circuit, an eight-team fictional league whose star players are truly larger-than-life. It's baseball at its rawest, right in the palm of your hand.

This book contains:

  • Rules for hitting, pitching, baserunning, defense, and everything else that can happen on a baseball field
  • An introduction to baseball scorekeeping
  • A random player table that allows you to roll up a new team in minutes
  • Guidelines for creating and running your own league, including rules for new prospects, high-stakes trades, catastrophic injuries and player aging
  • Detailed rosters for the legendary Southern Circuit
  • Period-appropriate photos and color illustrations

    Grading System

    Every item in our inventory has been inspected, very strictly graded, and bagged for its protection.

    SW

    Shrink Wrapped. Still in the original factory shrink wrap, with condition visible through shrink noted. For example, "SW (NM)" means shrink wrapped in near-mint condition.

    Mint

    Perfect. Brand new.

    NM

    Near Mint. Like new with only the slightest wear, many times indistinguishable from a Mint item. Close to perfect, very collectible.
    Board & war games in this condition will show very little to no wear and are considered to be punched unless the condition note says unpunched.

    EX

    Excellent. Lightly used, but almost like new. May show very small spine creases or slight corner wear. Absolutely no tears and no marks, a collectible condition.

    VG

    Very Good. Used. May have medium-sized creases, corner dings, minor tears or scuff marks, small stains, etc. Complete and very useable.

    Fair

    Very well used, but complete and useable. May have flaws such as tears, pen marks or highlighting, large creases, stains, marks, etc.

    • Boxed items are listed as "code/code" where the first code represents the box, and the second code describes the contents. When only one condition is listed, then the box and contents are in the same condition.
    • A "plus" sign indicates that an item is close to the next highest condition. Example, EX+ is an item between Excellent and Near Mint condition. A "minus" sign indicates the opposite.
    • Major defects and/or missing components are noted separately.
    • Boardgame counters are punched, unless noted. Due to the nature of loose counters, if a game is unplayable it may be returned for a refund of the purchase price.
    • In most cases, boxed games and box sets do not come with dice.
    • The cardboard backing of miniature packs is not graded. If excessively worn, they will be marked as "card worn."
    • Flat trays for SPI games are not graded, and have the usual problems. If excessively worn, they will be marked as "tray worn."
    • Remainder Mark - A remainder mark is usually a small black line or dot written with a felt tip pen or Sharpie on the top, bottom, side page edges and sometimes on the UPC symbol on the back of the book. Publishers use these marks when books are returned to them.

    If you have any questions or comments regarding grading or anything else, please send e-mail to contact@nobleknight.com.
