Diamond Legacies 1955 > Likes and Comments

Hello, recently purchased all your baseball books and I’m fully engaged int he world you have helped recreate. I don’t know if this is an obvious question but is the plan to cover 80s, 90s etc or are you staying within the bygone eras?

Once again amazing product

Thank you for your interest in Diamond Legacies! I appreciate your kind words and I'm very happy you are enjoying the game. The next volume (coming soon) will cover the 1969 season. For the one after that I'm thinking I'll cover a season in the 1980s. After that I haven't decided. Do you prefer more recent years or the earlier eras?

P.S. Sorry about the delayed response. I did not see your comment until this evening.

I really engage with the legendary names of the various eras that the seasons you have picked have managed to collect together and I’m really looking forward to Willie Mays in San Francisco in 69 alongside Fuentes, Marichal and McCovery.

Sadly seasons 1955 to 1969 skips Roger Maris’ entire career so maybe that would be something to correct in a future edition.

I think any season you pick from the 80s should have a strong Ricky Henderson as I love your base stealing mechanic.

I’m looking forward to the possibility of more optional rules i find these pages extremely engaging and felt your pitchers -5 points rule a perfect addition and really made the game come to life more.

I would be interested in your thoughts on trades if you are playing a full season. A dice based system to see if a trade is on the cards would be a very interesting addition.

I'm happy to read your positive comments about the new (-5) pitcher rule. I've been pleased with that one too and the dimension it adds to the game. I'm also glad you are liking the base stealing mechanic. Some seasons do not have many base stealers, but that aspect of the game was big in the 1980s. Henderson will be a dynamic player in whichever season is covered from that decade.

Yes, there are some sizeable spans not yet covered by Diamond Legacies. I will be looking to address those gaps in upcoming volumes.

I had not thought about adding trades as an unusual event in the game. That is an interesting concept to consider for future inclusion as an optional rule.
