======================================================================= FILE: GRIDIRON! VALIDATION CODE LIST FROM: THE ICE BREAKERS INCORPORATED WHY: BECAUSE YOU NEED THESE TO PLAY THE GAME!!!!! ====================================================================== Now that you have this awesome simulation game from Bethesda Softworks, you boot the disk (not to the head) and see an amazing title screen and music. Now, just as it finishes loading in, you see--"Please enter correct code". You are presented with page and column numbers where now you have to look up the correct 3-digit sequence to play the game. What, you don't have the book? Well, thanks to THE ICE BREAKERS INCORPORATED, all your troubles are solved. I have enclosed in this file the ENTIRE 6-page validation code listing for the game. Each page is exactly reproduced right from the original game manual, so all you have to do is print out this file and refer to it whenever you are asked for the validation code. I have also included the plays that are represented by numbers in the game, so you know what you're doing. If you are a football fanatic, try to play the game without knowing what plays go with which number...it'll be fun!! Lastly, I would like to greet some of our other friends out there...somewhere...

OFFENSIVE PLAYS: 0. Quarterback Sneak - This play will gain you very little ground, but can be effective in short yardage situations. 1. Fullback Blast - This probably won't get more than a couple of yards, but is effective because the fullback reaches the line of scrimmage so quickly. 2. 42 Run - The time it takes the halfback to get the ball usually allows the user to spot a hole. This play is not effective against a 6 man defensive line. If the halfback can get through the defensive lineman, this play can be a big gainer. 3. Fullback Trap - This is a tricky play. The trap blocking usually opens a hole for the fullback, but the delay in the development of the action can be disasterous if the defense is bliting. 4. Sweep Left - This is an easy play to run. Thge fullback is normally not very fast, so this play is more effective if the fullback does not swing out too wide before heading upfield. 5. Sweep Right - If the halfback has good speed and gets some running room, this play can gain you good yardage. 6. Pitch Left - Without a doubt, this is the most dangerous running play of all. If the defense isn't ready for it, this play will make big yardag, but if the defense is ready for it, this play can result in an fumbled lateral. 7. Pitch Right - Again, there is the danger of a fumbled lateral, but the fullback is hard to bring down if he gets outside. 8. Reverse - This is a very tricky play to execute well. Do not try this one often; wait until the defense can be fooled. This play can result in large gains, or large losses. 9. Fullback Draw - This is another tricky play. Generally, a Fullback Draw will only work against pass defenses. 10. 31 Pass - This play can take a long time to develop, but be patient. If the fullbakc makes it through the defensive line, he should be wide open over the middle. 11. Halfback Option - This is a useful play which requires very wuick decision-making. Look for the Quarterback to be wide open of =============================================================== PAGE 9 lots of running room on the outside. 12. Screen Left - Don't wait too long to throw the pass or your blockers will cross the line of scrimmage. This play may not gain a lot of yardage but is usually good for at least a few yards. 13. Screen Right - Similar to Screen Left. 14. Flood Pass - You have five receivers going out on this one but you also have less blockers. There should be someone open, so pass quickly or you're going to get sacked. 15. Halfback Fly - The success of this pass will greatly depending upon your defensive coverage. If your halfback is open, however, you can make very big yardage on this play. 16. Cutback Pass - This play is not designed to gain more than five or six yards but has a better chance of completion. Throwing to a receiver after he has cut back toward the Quarterback makes a successful pass easier to throw. 17. Hail Mary - This is a desperation pass when you need long yardage in a hurry. Chances of completion are slim but cross your fingers, throw the ball and maybe you'll get lucky... 18. Punt - Careful placement can sometimes place your opponent in bad situations. Kick it out of bounds or try to get the opposition to catch the ball deep in their own territory! 19. Field Goal - If the ball is outside your opponent's 35, kicking a field goal is difficult. This depends, of course, upon your team's kick rating. ======================================================================= DEFENSIVE PLAYS: 0. Goal Line Defense - Very good in short yardage situations but if the opposition gets much past the line of scrimmage, you will have a tough time stopping them from going all the way. 1. 61 Defense - This play is also good in short yardage situations, but is less likely ot allow big gains. 2. Spread 61 Defense - Use this defense in situations when you think the offense will run but you are not sure where. 3. 61 Stunt Defense - This defense gives the impression you are going to protect against a run up the middle when you are really protecting a run to the outside. ============================================================= PAGE 10 4. Shift Left - This play is very effective against runs or short passes to your left side. If the offense runs to your right, however, you could be in trouble. 5. Shift Right - Similar to Shift Left, but opposite. 6. Left LB Blitz - Blitzing the extra man can really break up an offensive play. But don't use this play too often as you can get nailed badly of he calls a good pass against you. 7. Right LB Blitz - Similar to a Left LB Blitz, other side. 8. Double LB Blitz - Twice the blitz and twice the risk. 9. Full Blitz - This is a very dangerous defense. Great against runs up the niddle and sweeps, but can be disasterous against pitches and passes. Also a good way to shake up and inexperienced Quarterback. 10. 43 Defense - A non-committal, balanced defense. Use when you don't know what to expect from the offense. 11. Spread 43 Defense - This defense is particualrly effective against short passes, ptiches and sweeps. This is the best defense to use against a pitch play. 12. 34 Defense - This is good when you think the offense is going to run to the outside or pass. 13. 61 Pass Defense - This defense may lead the offense to believe you are defending against a run while actually set up in a pas defense. This is not the most effective pass defense, however. 14. Short Zone - Probably the best overall pass coverage against a short to medium length pass. 15. 5 Man Coverage - Primarily a man-to-man coverage situation. Effective against passes to the flanker and the two ends, it still allows men to cover against a running play. The weakness of this play is that it will not work well against receivers coming out of the backfield. 16. 7 Man Zone - This is a good defense against a deep pass but the formation does not give away your strategy. This play is very poor against the run. 17. 8 Man Coverage - USe this play when you are sure the offense will attempt a deep pass. 18. Prevent Defense - Designed to prevent the offense from gaining large amounts of yardage i nshort periods of time. Because it is not difficult to get first down yardage against this defense, use it only when the defense has lettle time in the half, or they have to get ============================================================= PAGE 11 fifteen yards or more in the play. 19. Punt Return - Do not use this play unless the offense is in punt formation. PLAY SELECTION BOXES: The Play Selection Boxes in the upper left (and upper right) corner(s) are used to select plays. Rhe play number is represented by the two digits in the boxes. Above the digits are boxes containing arrows. To increase the value of a digit, move the pointer into the box above the digit ("up" arrow), and click the mouse button. To decrease the value of the digit, click on the "down" arrow. Each click of the mouse increases (or decreases) the digit by one. The digits "wrap around", in that increasing the value of the digit from "9" will result in "0". Once you have set the play numbers to the desired play, you must select the play using the Select Box (marked "SEL"). IMPORTANT: The play will NOT be selected if you do not point and click inside of the Select Box. The Offensive Play Selection Boxes have a "HIKe" box on the far right. When this box is clicked, both the offensive and defensive selection boxes disappear, as does the 30-second clock. There is a 2 second delay before the ball is hiked. During this time, the pointer may be moved into position for the upcoming action. ======================================================================= Well, that's all you'll get outa' me this time.
