Description:

MOTD - Master of the Dugout is a  Football management game, based around a
highly realistic match engine, which uses around 10 'seen' and 50 'unseen'
skills per player, full team and tactic/formation selection and changes,
substitutions and more, to produce a believable, life-like, match. The
matches can be viewed using a text 'match viewer', reading texts files,
work is being done to create a full graphic viewer.

The excellent 'front end' means MOTD plays like an online game...offline.
There are options for transfers, loans, scouting, and financial decisions
to make for your club. Team selection is by a simple mouse 'click and
drag' system. The mindless Website will feature updated match reports,
league tables, and a News section with reports and press releases written
by the GM's and the players.

Added to this is the 'Freedom' part of the game. Like all Mindless Games'
games, there is a small element of hand moderation to fill in the gaps
that fully computer moderated games suffer from. Beware, though - there's
a chance your Actions may go awry... You could buy the star player you
have had your eye on a sports car - which might make him beg to come to
your squad � but could also end with him crashing it and being unavailable
for play for several weeks.

The First season of MOTD is about to start, with many 20 player Leagues to
choose from.... English Premier, First, Second, and Third, Scottish
Premier, Italian, French, Spanish and German Leagues, and an abundance of
Cup Competitions to give everyone the chance to gain silverware.

Free Downloads, and first match free (two matches free for anybody quoting
pbm.com)

You'll be hooked!

PBM/PBDisc also available soon.
