Description

Statistical sport game on track & field events, a companion game (but playable by itself) for Central Lanes Athletics.
It features different methods for resolving middle and long races (from 800 to 10.000 meters), for resolving throws, long jump and triple jump, and a third system to resolve high jump and pole vault.
The core of the game is based on average time (as in Central lanes) for each competitors, modified by several dice rolls (2 six sided dice rolls 4 time for each of the races, but with an initial roll to see which competitors are still in the leading group in the final part of the race).
Throws and Jumps have an average measure, but there are also rules for fouls and other random events, that may greatly modify the result.
The basic game comes with complete data for Olympic Games from 1972 to 1988
A second (1992-2008) and a third (1936-1968) pack is to appear before the London Olympics
