I don't know how well it has aged now that we've all got computers, live streaming action, and XBox etc to compare it to, but I "rolled the dice" from 1976 up to about 1982 or so. I played complete seasons, compiling stats on notepaper and even joined a mail-league where we would play a portion of the schedule and mail the results off to our opponents for the "road" games.
Very sophisticated! The amazing thing was, as you played out a season, the players would come remarkably close to their real regular season stats for the prior year...while I remember some anomalies, there were many hitters who ended up pretty darn close. It was a big part of my teenage years...I invested in the old-timers and played the greats against each other. Oh how I can remember how hard it was to get 1922 George Sisler out! So, I recommend APBA for purely selfish reasons. I still have my game and all of the cards somewhere...I never played much Strat, but I know their fan base is just as fanatic!
