GCE Vectrex Blitz! Manual page 12

To kick a field goal , first select any formation.
Once your opponent sets up his men, press Button 3
to change your men to field goal formation . The goal
posts will appear . Snap the ball , line up with the
goal posts , aim the direction of your kick with the
joystick and press Button 3 to actually kick . To punt
or kick, you must be behind the line of scrimmage .
From either punt or field goal formation you have
the option of running with the ball once the ball is
snapped . However , you do not have the option of
passing from either formation .
Getting Tackled
Once you are tackled by an opponent or run out of
bounds , the official will blow a whistle and the play
will be over . Both teams come out again ready for
the next play .
Penalties
There are two penalties in Blitz!:
Delay of Game: If you take more than 30 seconds
to snap the ball after the formations are set, this
penalty will be called. You will lose five yards. The
clock will not start again until the ball is snapped.
Offsides: If you are across the line of scrimmage
when the ball is snapped, this penalty will be called.
You will lose five yards. The clock will start again as
soon as your new formation is in place.
Don't forget, Blitz! is just like real football.
Therefore, the ball will be turned over to your oppo-
nent if you do not make a first down in 4 tries.
