Catenaccio
MAIDEN ENGLAND
Catenaccio is yet another football based game. This one differs from
REF in one significant way. REF is based on known levels/abilities of the
players in the game. This game has a greater element of luck involved, in all
areas of the game. As such, I find this game truer to life and in a lot of
ways, easier to play. More control of finance is needed alongside a full
knowledge of the rigid set of rules. Once mastered, this game is well worth
trying.
I joined the game, and was given the job of managing Maiden England. For once,
I decided not to change the name, as I quite liked the one in place! All my
players are named after top landowners at the time of the Doomsday Book.
After a major league restructure, the league will now have two
divisions of 12 teams from season 19.
Astradyne is the name of the
zine produced for this game. There are teams available at the moment, so if you

Costs about £12.50 a year to play, which is about the standard for this type of
game!
But be warned, this game is not for the faint hearted or uncommitted! The GM
has recently added a few major rule changes and I have to applaud him for that.
All games need a little shake up now and then!
