CW XI - Football

Blewy · 25-09-2006, 08:20 AM

A couple of us are looking into the possibility of starting up a CW XI for football providing there is interest...

It will be run pretty much the same as CW XI cricket, with a domestic competition and the national team taking other nations in friendlies and international tournaments..

What would the reaction to something like this be??

i like it lets hope you can get this running ASAP

We've seen how well it can work with the XI; we've also seen how it can fail to work with numerous FM games. Which sims/etc would you use?

Sounds, interesting, but only if it works.

Well i have been told by a couple of people that ESMS or ESMS+ are the best out there..

As for the failing problem i think that is more due to the people running it losing interest...
I feel if i got a group of people dedicated to helping run it, like CW XI then it would work well

Blewy · 25-09-2006, 08:48 AM

If anyone has any suggestions or ideas that we could implement into this we'd love to hear them as well....

Things like what confederation we join etc

Allow players to pick 5 qualities they think they are best at, so that the assigning of skills isn't completely random.
