Coming sometime next year to a PBeM game near you.

However you play online - Java, Vassal, Email, Cyanide etc - talk about it here.
This is also the place for discussing the various tools for managing leagues, teams and so on.

I am glad that some of you guys like them. I don't know if there is anything I can do to make them less 'bombermany' because most video game 2d sprites of that size are very 'anime-ish' and super deformed is the name of the game.

The good news is the rest of the MBBL teams are comming as I work on them. Also, I am very open to input so if you have any suggestions, I am always willing to listen (since it is the community that gets to use the icons)

Here is an updated sheet with some of the newer teams.

*Spirit hosts
*Gobbos & Snots
*Witches
*elementals
*Lycanthrope
*Added players (strigoi and baby dragon)
and probably more I don't remember...

The Elementalist icons are just entirely too cool ... and I'm playing one right now in the MBBL2 ... definitely going to have to put in some serious hours in February to program this icons into the tool.

January is my busiest work month of the year.

They look great, and I can see a lot of works gone into them, but I find the ball carrier hard to distinguish. Sorry :(

Also, how do we differentiate between different strength players?

You won't ... if you like the color scheme for ST differences you won't be able to use the icons.

Well, you could have them have background colors as well as icons...

so str 3 will have one shade of blue while ball carrier might be yellow.

Or a toggle?

Or even a doublesize...? when the icons are 40x40, you can see things clearer.

Would this be easy to to? I crap with technology and computers, and have only just got my head around teamtracker and html rosters :oops:

Is there any way that with these icons we can use the software on 800X600? At 1024 it just seems a little small. I really like the icons but they are a bit hard to see.

Let me get them in the program first and then I'll worry about extras.

You can lower your screen resolution to 800x600.

No you can't. PBeM must be played at 1024 X 768.
