The California Pacifics travel east to take on the Pennsylvania Bucks on opening night of the AEFL.

Hey guys, finally got down to writing out my solitaire rules. I hope this is something the community finds useful or at least gives the group some ideas that they can incorporate into their own gameplay. For those familiar with my videos, you will find a couple of differences with the gameplay in my youtube rule series. I have tried to further streamline gameplay(specifically the pass play). 2024 AEFL SOLITAIRE RULE BOOK.pdf

If you’re playing any touch tackle I would say the qb is tackled regardless of the blocker engagement

Hi Greg I just use my iPhone on a tripod. I recently purchased an extended arm mount for the tripod so I can get the camera over the field

In my league each team gets one play to score a td from the 20 (red zone). If they don’t get a Td they can still kick a fg. If the first team up scores a td then they must take the xtra pt, and if the second team up scores a td they have to go for 2 unless the first team missed their xpt (trying to avoid mult overtime’s). Of course I will still have mult OTs if both teams get a fg or if neither team scores anything.

Hey Greg, I’m going have 100 bases for 88 roster spots and I’m going to do a random draft lottery selection.

Hey Terry, Bruce actually does have 2 videos on his method and I just looked at it again, checked out the comments and he replied that he uses 2, 10 sided dice. I’m with you, using stats to guide the game is not the way I choose to go. However some folks enjoy playing that way.

Terry, Shawn, thank you so much for your feedback and kind words. One of the great things about this hobby is that it allows a great deal of creativity. I have learned so much in the last year by watching and reading how others play the game. The FAT8 zone passing scheme inspired me with his ball on base method, I just went in a little different direction to match how I like to play solitaire. I also watched a video from a guy named Bruce Tripp who had designed some transparent game pieces that he uses with(I think )a dice passing system. I am glad you like the videos, I enjoy making them. I am hoping to contribute in any way I can!

Hey guys, this is my spin on an alternate passing method for those interested.

Hawks now 0-2 and looking for answers. Nice bounce back game for the Lancers

It sounds like some of those Lancer defensive players may be in danger of losing their starting gig. When you let up 275 yds on the ground some heads are bound to roll…yikes!

Jim, you have said in another post the Lancers are your leagues version of the Ny Yankees (due to all the championships). Who is someone that we should look out for in the upcoming season? Is there any clear front runner?

Thanks Terry and yes I keep stocking up (mostly with ITZ bases) I’ll tweak some of the new ones and if I like how they look in scrimmages then some of them will get mixed into the draft pool. I love threads like this, it’s so interesting to see all the different approaches folks take.

Hey Terry, good question. In my system all the teams have to feed the draft lottery with some players off their team. I haven’t decided how many players off of each team but let’s just say it was 3, those 3 would be chosen at random so they may be the teams stars or JAGs or a mixture of both. That draft pool will also be supplied with new talent that wasn’t on a team the season prior. Then the draft itself is a random lottery draw. Using this method there is no telling if the good teams or the poor teams will improve or decline and I like the randomness aspect of it. You could get a dynasty, or there could be major power shift, or maybe it will just produce parity. I hope this helps explain my process😀
