Description

Fury Hardball is a fast-playing alt-sport strategy game designed for one or two players. Arrange your team to suit your play style, and call your plays to outsmart your opponent. And when we say fast playing, we mean it— Fury Hardball can be played in as little as ten minutes, perfect for playing through a league or season! Available in both hard copy and print-and-play formats, its the perfect fit for any game collection!

Fury Hardball has elements of baseball, cricket, and plastic vent-ball. Set up is simple. One or two players select a slinger (pitcher), two fielders, and four batters for each team.

The game only lasts for one inning of nine outs for each team. The visiting team bats first and scores as many runs as they can before the home team comes up and tries to outscore them and win the game. The slinger can throw heat, junk, stuff, or try to catch a person on base who is stealing. The batter chooses between no swing, a reach swing, or a big swing. A roll of a d10 determines the result of the play either from the main game card or from one of the players: slinger, fielders, or batter.

There are ways to score multiple runs on the same play and to record multiple outs. The action is fast and furious. If the home team can score more runs in the bottom half of the inning than the visitor managed in the top half, they win the game.
