Fury Hardball Head-to-Head Pitch Deck

Here’s a NEW way to play Fury Hardball, head-to-head! We’ve re-composed the game’s “Sling Board” into a colorful deck of 36 pitch cards. As the manager of the “slinging” team, you’ll deal yourself four cards—these are the four pitches you’ll choose from as you face the first batter. Choose your pitch, then the batter chooses his swing. Reveal the card, and discover the result! It’s that simple.

Why did we create this add-on? Well, the Fury Hardball Pitch Deck is a great way to add more “game” to a two-player game. The straight-out-of-the-box solo version works great when you don’t have an opponent. It’s designed to re-create varying abilities of players, and let you enjoy the show as a spectator. When you’re playing against/with someone, you don’t WANT to be a spectator, you want your decisions to matter. When you brilliantly out-think your opponent—like, when you coerce him into swinging at junk!—you want to reap the benefit, right? A roll on the swing board is in your favor in that scenario, but there’s always a chance that it could render your choice moot. (For example, in the out-of-the-box two-player game, if you roll a “4,” you’ll read off the batter card regardless of what pitch/swing was called.)

Each pitch has its own unique set of outcomes. The Hard Changeup relies more on the pitcher’s “stuff,” while the “Nuclear Strike” is about as hot a pitch as you can throw! Need to keep an eye on a fast-moving base-runner? There are pitch options which will allow you to do that. In short, the Fury Hardball Pitch Deck puts you on the mound facing enemy batters with skill AND cunning!
