I have recently downloaded the windows version of PMFB to run a simple league with some friends, in which the GM aspect is accentuated through some out-of-software rules.
Ideally, I'd like the owners of the six teams to be able to choose from standard playbooks though - for example, someone who drafted a power run offence to be able to pick a "Run Heavy" playbook, while the guy who picked receivers and a pop-gun quarterback to have the choice of a "West Coast" playbook, containing suitable plays.
My newness to the games means that I'm not yet capable of designing these playbooks myself, so I wondered if anyone knew if they, (or something like them), were available anywhere on the web?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Most of the playbooks you'll find on the 'net are password protected. Coaches wish, understandably, to protect all of the hard work they've put in creating plays. But the sample teams that came with the game are not protected. You could always select plays from those books and adjust the AI to your liking. Just be sure to give credit to the origins of the plays if you use them in any kind of competition.
