I also love the prickly pear and the snake pattern S! |
Thanks for the comment and the logo offer, I appreciate it, but I do have a concept for a team based in Mérida which I'll show off in a future post.
A note on the Mesoamerican ballgame concept: OOTP is of course a baseball simulation which is why I set the backstory that this game "evolved" into baseball for the simulation. There is actually evidence of ball and stick games being played and
some of them have survived, although they are more similar to hockey than baseball.
All 8 cities I picked for the initial season have one or more prehispanic sites with ballgame courts in their vicinity. However, I am planning for this league to expand and eventually include other major cities.
