The Fast Drive Football (FDF) FAC Edition replaces dice rolls and chart look-ups with a deck of Fast Action Cards that speed up gameplay and simplify game timing. You can purchase a boxed version of the game, or just a set of the FAC's and download the rest of the materials as PDF's here on this page. Both purchases can be made at The Game Crafter.
For people familiar with the original game, here is what is different with the FAC Edition
Gone is the “timing die”. Each Drive Result FAC has the drive time printed on the card.
Timing of the pro game has changed from the original 1-minute and 15-second increments (or “ticks”) to 30-second increments.
Some Drive Result FACs have a dice-driven “split” result to keep the statistical integrity of the original game.
The game was designed so that keeping a scoresheet - primarily to keep track of game timing - is no longer required. The deck of Drive Result cards doubles as the play clock, with each card representing 30-seconds of game time. When the deck is exhausted, the half is over.
Team boutique ratings are driven by the card number of the Drive Result FAC instead of die rolls. The game includes a conversion table when playing the FAC Edition with original format team cards.
How much does the FAC Edition Cost?
The boxed version of the game retails for $49.99, and the FAC-only version retails for $29.99.

Will the FAC Edition work with college football?
No, this product only supports the Pro game. I will consider a college version of the FACs in the future.
