FM 14 Big Euro Challenge

Lower Leagues Rule · October 16, 2013

Well, we are now heading into the seventh year of this challenge. It has been an incredible six years around here with some great stories, clubs, and players. Rlipscombe, Iacovone and Myself are looking forward to another great year. This challenge is similar to dafuge's, Gundo's & others, starting with a previously unplayable club and taking them all the way to a National Title and then on to the European Champions League. With a variety of leagues, styles of play, different rules, and many different locations for your clubs there can be a lot of variety throughout the thread, a great atmosphere and fun with all our users. This season promotion into the bottom level in Scotland adds some new clubs and a whole new challenge.

The Rules

A) Game Set-up

1) Choose your FM - Classic or Full Fat

2) Load One Nation Only (All Available Divisions within your nation)

3) Your choice of Database Size (Large Recommended)

4) NO Edited Databases of any kind

5) Customising Database (Only Available in Full Fat)

You can add players to the database up to a limit of 100,000 in total - Change for people wanting more variety in their DB
Suggested Adds
- Players from Top Clubs/Top Divisions (Europe or All Continents) - This increases the challenge at Continental Level
- Players Based in your Nation - This can add up to 50% more players to your game
[*]There will be a file correcting the club/competition names, I will advise use of this.

[*]NO other additional customising is allowed.

6) Attribute Masking should be Enabled (In FM14 this means UNTICKED)

7) Optional Ticks

Add Key Staff (This will give you a Scout, Physio & Ass Man by generating them if your club is without - Unticked in FM14)
Add Players in Playable Nations (This will ensure all clubs have a minimum number of players, generating them if needed)

The extra levels of detail that you can change while in the game are up to you, as they shouldn't make a difference.

B) Steps in the Game

1) Add an unemployed manager, you will not use this man to manage your club.

2) Go on holiday until the reset date of your chosen nation (Should take about an hour)

TIP -

Changing

Detail Level to None

will make it go faster. (Remember to change it back afterwards)

TIP

- Saving on the day before this date may give you a better choice of teams by reloading the game then going on holiday for one day, I would strongly recommend trying this.

TIP

- In Scotland go on holiday til the day before the last game in 2015 (May 2nd), and then reload this date checking the Playoff team.

3) Add a new manager

a) Past Experience lowest Possible (Generally Sunday League)

b) Other options are up to you

4) Choose to take over any club which has been promoted to the bottom playable league of your nation.

TIP

- Easiest way in FM14 to see this is using

Club History - Domestic Leagues

, if the last season is anything except 2013/14 they are a newly promoted team.

5) Retire your unemployed manager.

6) Manage your club to National Title & European Champions League Victory

7)

Completing the Big Euro Challenge.

C) Signing of Players

1) You must be able to scout them

TIP

: You don't actually have to scout them, just be able to

TIP

: You can check your scouting range on the

Boardroom

page

2) Alternatively (If you can't scout them), you must bring them on a trial first

3) And from FM11 onwards Agents offer players, you are able to sign anyone sent to you via Agent Offer

(I suggest Screenshots of the offer)

D) Posting

1) Player naming is allowed. (This is a warning for those of you who do not wish to see this)

2) Discussion of tactics is allowed. (This is another warning for those of you who do not wish to see this)

Expected Updates

We have minimum expectations when it comes to a first up post and also in the end of season updates. The Bold pages are necessary for everyone, the others are some suggestions that will get others interested in your posts and following your club. All other screenshots are welcome and encouraged, but we please ask that the majority are posted as links, because lots of pictures can make the page very slow to load.

First Post:

Information (Manager)

Domestic Leagues History (Club)

Profile (Manager)

Information (Club)

Overview (Club)

Squad (Club)

End of Season Updates:

Transfers (Club) - This is so we can see the ins & outs

League Table (Competition)

Squad (Club)

Information (Manager)

Profile (Manager)

Information (Club)

Profile (Players)

I will show some examples of updates down below in the next post so you can see some of the stuff previously posted. Progress of your club should be documented using this thread, we want to hear the story of your club all the way through. Please keep us updated, even if you are doing badly. If you title your end of season report in bold this makes it easier to identify. Everyone will be supportive, and really get into your game if you give more detail, I also provide a list of some previous star players that may have become household names in this thread.

E) Other

1) If you are Sacked

(i) You can Restart from the beginning or;

(ii) Continue your game and pick a new club (Under Same Rules) at the end of the next season or;

(iii) Add another Big Euro League/Remove Current League, holiday a whole season and continue

a) You can still only have one nation running at a time

b) Once the league becomes active you MUST holiday a full season

c) The club must be one of those unplayable from the beginning

2) No Restrictions on Parent or Feeder Clubs

3) International Management allowed from FM14 forwards (But you cannot start as an International Manager)

The use of any external utilities and editors (Such as Genie Scout or FMM) are prohibited. As in FM14 there are also unlockables, these are also prohibited, please don't use them.

How to Post a Screenshot

1) While in FM, press the 'Prt Sc' button (usually next to F12 on your keyboard).

2) Open an image editing program such as Paint and paste the image

3) Save the file as a JPEG or PNG

4) Upload the image to an image hosting website such as Photobucket or Imageshack

5) Post the direct Url to the image here.

Alternatively using ALT + F9 in game saves a screenshot to your user data folder. (You can also edit this in the shortcuts options)

The LLR Motivational

Finally I would like to wish everyone taking on this challenge the best of luck on a long and hard journey to managerial success!

The atmosphere and contribution in this thread has always been excellent, long may it continue. As core members for every year, LLR, rlipscombe, Iacovone and PRDH would like to add that we are here to help for the new challengers and hope everybody that participates contributes considerably to the thread. There is nothing better than getting immersed not only in your own game but providing the encouragement to other people's attempts too. Remember we are all fighting the same battle - to defeat the AI (and uncover fabulous newgens!) - therefore it goes without saying that any form of cheating will be severely chastised. Don't do it! We have had an incident in the past, lets not see it again - it spoils the challenge for the hard workers in here.

Let's DO this THING!

The History of the Big Euro Challenge

The Origins of this Challenge were in FM2008 when JoseRR realised there was a gap between the Gundos & Dafuges challenges, the Bigger Nations of Europe were being left out.

JoseRR's FM08 Small Club to Big Club From a Big European Nation Challenge

Thread

In FM08 there was a very slow start, and it seemed to dawdle along until Rlipscombe joined and it started to pick up, then I came along (as Des Tiny) and we kept it going until we were joined by Iacovone and others. A great little thread and the beginnings of something much larger.

JoseRR's FM09 Big Euro Nation Challenge

Thread

FM09 was the peak of power for the Big Euro Challenge. The thread ended with an awards ceremony, there were over 6000 posts, a large number of completions and the best community spirit of any thread. It also managed to take out a few awards in the CSE awards at the end of the season.

FM11 Big Euro Nation: Small Club to Big Club Challenge

Thread

In 2011 LLR took over the running of the challenge, with assistance as always provided by Rlipscombe. The number of challengers dropped off a little, but the spirit in the thread continued once more as the core of players was the same that it had been for a few years now.

FM12 Big Euro Challenge: Small Club to Big Club

Thread

In FM12 there was a massive resurgance in this challenge as it climbed over 5000 posts for the first time since FM09, while the rest of the CSE Forum seemed to be falling this challenge went back up again, the atmosphere is seen as a major part of this, and for the first time in CSE History we overtook Dafuge's Challenge as the largest number of posts.

Thread

I had a shocker in 2013, as I never really got into the game and I struggled to enjoy it as much as I normally do. The thread seemed to suffer as the Careers Forum took over and it seems the players of the game got a bit older and had more going on in their lives. With the thread never reaching the heights of previous seasons. We still managed to see several completions through the season though as we saw some new players take them out.

The Logo Packs

I prefer the Metallic Pack, it seems to have more of our logos as well, but I have included a couple of others as well.

Metallic Mega Pack

Just get the 2014 Complete if you haven't got it before, otherwise start from your latest update. (Latest Version = 14.11)

ESS Logos

Shiny Logos

The Kit Packs

Sortitoutsi is the best place to find these, and they run three styles, I have always found the Short sleeve version is the favourite, so here are the kits for our leagues, and you can add any others you like. (The individual download links may change, but check the main page) - If you prefer a different style, there are other styles, include long sleeve versions on the Sortitoutsi website. Hoping there are more Portuguese kits this year, were a bit short lately. I am going to try to compile the kits we are missing in the last week of November from my own archives (I have kits going back to 08/09 in my back-up drives), and will make this available for download somewhere (Possibly by PMing me)

Lower Leagues Rule · October 16, 2013

Right well it is 5:30am here, and my game is downloading. I start work at 8, so no chance of getting it going this morning

Hopefully everyone else can get in there and have a play, I'll probably start looking at playing tonight, but will try to holiday all the nations to the day before reset day at least once before I start my own game for a save game and to get the right dates :-)

Oxslow · October 16, 2013

Good luck to everybody that takes on this year challenge.

Just a heads up LLR some of the advance options tick boxes have changed. "Do not add Key staff" "Disable attribute masking".

DodgeeD · October 16, 2013

That was fast! Good luck to all who take on the challenge this year. I am going to play around with the beta and start a serious game once the real deal is out but I will hopefully get round tho this at some point

Lower Leagues Rule · October 16, 2013

Cheers Oxslow, I'll be checking that stuff and updating the opening post as soon as I get into the game.

Always fast here DodgeeD, I had the opening post ready, and just had to add it once I saw the Beta was open haha.

ashton321 · October 16, 2013

I am going to come over here once I have given the DogeeD/Razer South American Challenge a real good go. I think. I think the South American one is a really good one that should have more participants.

Lower Leagues Rule · October 16, 2013

Good Luck over there Ashton, we look forward to seeing you here.

So Portugal has the new Division available

Also looking at my Portuguese Game Set-up: Europe Top Division Clubs, Portugal Nationality & Based in, Arg/Bra Based in, CHI/ECU/VEN/COL Nationality with Large Database gives me 74,000, likely to be what I run my game with

duccio · October 16, 2013

So its his time of year again!

Anyone who already has the game - how many levels do the different leagues have? What happens in Italy after the 1st season?

Lower Leagues Rule · October 16, 2013

OMG it has "Place of Birth" and I can actually pick my home town => Feilding - Never expected that

Lower Leagues Rule · October 16, 2013

LOL can't tell in Italy, starts with C2, Portugal has the new divisions, the others look the same, other updates from me will be later

ashton321 · October 16, 2013

I am going to have a look at a few leagues here before I make my final decision. I am just loading up France. Its like Christmas

Razer82 · October 16, 2013

Will have to have a decent crack at this one again.

As always though, heading to South America first.

Good luck lads, will check in for progress updates.

Lower Leagues Rule · October 16, 2013

Also if anyone wants to play on an older version and post in here, you are welcome as always.

International Management is allowed (But you cannot start with it), and a player limit is set at 100,000 Players loaded, in the only changes to the rules. (Will update info on the ticks and written stuff later)

Lower Leagues Rule · October 16, 2013

Holiday is at end of January, going to be ready 2 mins before I leave for work...UGH!

duccio · October 16, 2013

LOL can't tell in Italy, starts with C2, Portugal has the new divisions, the others look the same, other updates from me will be later

OK.

The challenge logo in the first post is not the last one I made (and posted in the FM13 thread). Perhaps you rather want to use this?

Lower Leagues Rule · October 16, 2013

Damn thought I updated the post after I saw it, on way to work now will update when I have a real computer again (aka At Work )

ashton321 · October 16, 2013

I am at the end of the French season I am just having a little look at teams who come up. FM14 I think looks so much cleaner than the other games

ashton321 · October 16, 2013

Just to confirm French reset is 20th June

ProddingAHoneyBadger · October 16, 2013

Got my game installed, off to holiday in Portugal, really looking forward to the whole promotion from the 3rd tier

Lower Leagues Rule · October 16, 2013

Got my game installed, off to holiday in Portugal, really looking forward to the whole promotion from the 3rd tier

Thanks, when you get to the Reset Date if you could let me know that would be great.

I will also be back in Portugal this season, at least for my first attempt => Could be in Italy later on.

I will update the Reset Dates as I get them, my picture will get updated when I get home.

Also if anyone has Save Game files they can upload for the day before reset anywhere that would be great too, just advise what database set-up you used (S/M/L => added players etc)

Dons · October 16, 2013

Can't we manage Italy C2?

ProddingAHoneyBadger · October 16, 2013

Portugal reset is the 30th June so make sure you save it on the 29th

duccio · October 16, 2013

Can't we manage Italy C2?

Because of changes to the Italian league system IRL, there should be no C2 after the first season.

Lower Leagues Rule · October 16, 2013

Can't we manage Italy C2?

Italy C2 ceases to exist after the first season. End of first season there is a bunch of change.

Italy's divisions afterwards look like this:

Serie A

Serie B

Serie C - 3 groups (Playable = Lowest level for our challenge)

Serie D

After 1 season there will be 9 teams from Serie D in the Serie C, these are the teams for this challenge.

Dons · October 16, 2013

Because of changes to the Italian league system IRL, there should be no C2 after the first season.

Cheers, then it will be a C1 team I reckon

So there is no active Serie D.

ProddingAHoneyBadger · October 16, 2013

Here's a save for Portugal, saved on June 29th, the day before the reset.

The database is a large database with players from top clubs in Europe and players based in Portugal loaded, this brings it to 14,000 players so should still run very quickly.

http://www59.zippyshare.com/v/11154371/file.html

Lower Leagues Rule · October 16, 2013

Thanks Honey Badger, have added it to Post #4

As for Serie D, it doesn't look to be active, but until I get home I won't be holidaying in Italy

Things have started well for me, only lost one friendly, won the last friendly 7-4 and we've scored in the 33rd second in the 1st league game!

EDIT: We lost 7-5...

Lower Leagues Rule · October 16, 2013

WOW that is a LOT of goals.

Nice choice of club there Brettney, nice to see some variety in clubs, awesome to see an out of the way location. Looking forward to see you advance.

Lower Leagues Rule · October 17, 2013

My own game crashed on holiday, well not truly crashed, but I couldn't ALT+TAB back into the game so might as well have crashed.

Restarted in Portugal, going to have a play there tonight. Will also update some of the information in the starting posts.

siLKEAPE · October 17, 2013

I can confirm Germany's reset date is still the 20th of June. However, it seems to be a problem with reserve teams of Bundesliga clubs being promoted rather than eligible clubs. I think this happened last year aswell? Oh, well.... Italy or Portugal then!

Lower Leagues Rule · October 17, 2013

Yeah last year the Bundesliga Reserve clubs had a reputation setting based on their senior clubs instead of B teams. Lots of reloads will get some, but it is very difficult as they get relegated and then promoted repeating years as relegation based on form which they don't get, but promotion based on reputation which they have.

Log the defect, as they want to know about it.

Lower Leagues Rule · October 17, 2013

So I have uploaded 9 Portuguese Games above with the teams that came up in each (All have players based in Portugal, Large Database & Top Division Players Europe = 46,000 players)

I have also selected my own team.

14 or 46k? It says two different things. And what does it mean that a club is in bold?

FC Maia Lidador were a new club formed in 2009 out of the ashes of FC Maia, the old club went bankrupt and this team stepped up. The club is looking to bring a new future to their city Maia, it is a city to the north of Porto, they were looking for a manager looking to overcome Porto and build on a very short history. They play their games at Estádio Professor Doutor Vieira de Carvalho, a 15,000 seat stadium. The closest they have previously got was a 4-5 loss to Porto in the Portuguese Cup, that's something we'll look to better.
