I have a blast playing this game. For me, it's just like watching a game on TV inside my head, with no commercials! That stats have come out solid for me when I keep them for a 1974 Steeler project I have started. I use the automated Run/Pass call and the automated "who gets the ball/or the pass" - unless it is 3rd Down and 8, then I have a House Rule that the play will be a pass play unless inside the team's own 10 yard line. Fun, fun game.
I really like this game, though I play it quite different than the rules say. I modified the order of things to make it more like a football play. This is a confusing game, and I made a bunch of mistakes in this video, but you should get the idea on how it plays. It's fun.
OK, I know this is way late and way off topic, but I gave your podcast a listen after you mentioned it here and have to give major thumbs up to the Metal Church bumper music. I love Metal Church!
Great job, Dave. I’m glad that you are showing off some Downey Games. I really like them, but I feel that they are overlooked. I have a bunch of their games and enjoy them a lot. I don’t know if you play basketball games, but I like Downey’s Player of the Game (POTG) Basketball. Keep up the good work.
Thanks William. They do have some fantastic games that are largely overlooked, that's why I've been doing these videos. I don't always play by the rules exactly as written, but I think you can get a good feel of the game from what I do with them. That's all I'm trying to do.
Hi dave sorry dont mean to bug you im still trying to figure out the fast action football game ebook set any will the fac card have to move somewhere on pc thank you dave kenny
Great job Dave, love the video. Question, have you ever played Solitaire Pro Football by Mike Keeley? And if you have between this and SPF which do you prefer?
@@DaveGardnervideos FA FB is smooth playing. Todecrease wear and tear on the FAC, the gamer could use appropriate die or dice. if using the timing mech every 20 seconds (if there aren't 15 or 10 second plays. Changing the subject. I gotta get a Seals jersey. I am surprised you don't have a Southern California Sun WFL jersey.

Hi dave sorry being a pest dont mean to lol can you tell me the different between the fsst action football games what is e book game mean i want the game like you do is that e book where the fac cards on the pc like your game on youtube thank you kenny
the ebook gets you the pdf files for the games by email, and you print everything out. It comes with the excel helper that flips the cards for you so you don't have to print out the cards. If you buy the printed version they mail you, I'm not sure if you get the excel helper or not as they will have sent you the printed cards and teams.

I was a little too young to be a fan at the time (I was 4 or 5), but picked up on all that stuff in the early 90s.

Hi Dave. Do you need to by the ebook parts to get the Excel helper or do they send it if you buy the physical FAC cards?
Carmine actually I think it does come with the game when you buy the PDF
Thanks!. Do the seasons from Downey come on cardstock or regular paper?
Carmine it’s heavier than regular paper but I prefer to print my own.
Which game better fast action football or mean gene matchup foitball game thank you kenny
Kenny Price fast action is simpler. MG has more options but more complex.

I got my FA fb game today. The fac deck has more than 60 cards in it. I bot 1976 season along with other seasons. Looks less fiddly than Mean Gene fb.
I like FAF
