dafuge Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 The Aim To take a small club who were previously unplayable in an unedited game from the Vanarama National League North/South to Premier League and Champions League glory. The Rules This year allows a bit more freedom in the game setup, you have the option of loading whatever leagues you like at the start and throughout the game. As for the 'advanced option', all of the boxes should be left unticked apart from 'do not add key staff' and 'prevent use of in-game editor'. It should look like this. Just like previous years, the players for the newly playable clubs need to be added which can be done using the 'advanced' option on the database size. The players from the three feeder league have to be added, which looks like this. You can also add anything else you like to increase the size of the database, for example like this. The extra levels of detail that you can change while in the game are up to you, as they shouldn't make a difference. Add yourself as an unemployed manager, the details are not important at all. I like to call mine 'Holiday Man'. Go on holiday until 24th June. This is the day that the new clubs appear, so saving on 23rd June gives you a chance to reload in the hope of getting a particular club. Retire your 'Holiday Man' manager and allow him to ride off into the sunset. Add a new manager, the personal details are completely up to you but I would expect people to use their own true nationalities and languages spoken. Coaching badges must be set to 'None', with past playing experience set as 'Sunday League Footballer'. The coaching attributes are completely up to you. When adding a new manager, choose one of the new clubs promoted to the Vanarama North or South to manage. A quick way to check the new teams is to find the 'England Overview' team, then the 'season summary'. Just above the FA Cup summary you should find a list of six new teams. They should appear in this list which shows the reputation of the possible clubs. The reputation should act as a difficulty level. The lower the reputation, the harder your game should be. Ryman Football League Premier Division Billericay 1550 Bognor Regis 1650 Brentwood 1200 Burgess Hill 1300 Canvey Island 1600 Dulwich Hamlet 1800 East Thurrock 1400 Enfield Town 1350 Farnborough 1850 Grays 1450 Hampton & Richmond 1650 Harrow 1300 Hendon 1600 Kingstonian 1700 Leatherhead 1250 Leiston 1250 Lewes 1600 Merstham 1250 Met Police 1350 Needham Market 1250 Staines 1550 Tonbridge 1700 VCD 1050 Wingate & Finchley 1250 Calor Gas League Southern Premier Division Bedworth 1100 Bideford 1100 Biggleswade Town 1150 Cambridge City 1600 Chesham 1450 Chippenham 1450 Cirencester 1250 Dorchester 2100 Dunstable 950 Frome 1100 Histon 1650 Hitchin 1250 Hungerford 1000 Kettering 1950 King's Lynn 1550 Leamington 1650 Merthyr Town 1300 Paulton 1150 Poole Town 1050 Redditch 1650 Slough 1300 St. Neots 1500 Stratford 1000 Weymouth 1600 Evo-Stik League Northern Premier Division Ashton Utd 1600 Barwell 1450 Blyth 1700 Buxton 1550 Colwyn Bay 1700 Darlington 1883 1750 Frickley 1450 Grantham 1500 Halesowen 1500 Hyde 1600 Ilkeston 1600 Marine 1500 Matlock 1500 Mickleover 1400 Nantwich 1500 Ramsbottom 1350 Rushall 1550 Salford 1650 Skelmersdale 1550 Stamford 1450 Stourbridge 1500 Sutton Coldfield 1400 Whitby 1500 Workington 1700 It is now up to you to manage this club all the way to the Premier League title and UEFA Champions League crown. The challenge is complete once you have won both competitions, this does not need to happen in the same season. You may not move clubs unless you are sacked. If you get sacked, you can either take over a newly promoted club that satisfies the original criteria (check the club's league history), or just start again. Any form of international management is not allowed, until you have completed the challenge. Assigning parent clubs and loaning players is completely up to the player, although it should be noted that on occasions a parent club can lend players which will make the first season or two slightly less of a challenge. It is completely up to you how you play this one. Personally, I like to assign a parent club for financial benefits but never take any players on loan from them. To sign a player, you must be able to scout them, this doesn't mean you have to, just he must be accessible to your scouts. If you have a foreign player on a free transfer who is willing to come on trial, you do not need to be able to scout them, as long as you have them at the club on trial so you can get a coach report on him. If an agent offers you a player, you can sign him without scouting him. No external utilities such as scouting programs should be used and the database should be unedited (with the exception of cosmetic changes which cannot be discussed here). Should SI release a data update, this would be allowed but any other data updates are not. Use of save game editors is strictly banned, whatever the reason. Ticking that box at the start should see to this. Rules for this Thread Player naming is allowed. General discussion on tactics is allowed, although people should not refer to downloaded tactics. They are not banned, but I would expect the majority of people to avoid them. When you join the challenge, post a screenshot of your manager's profile on the 24th June like this. 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 really badly. At the end of every season, could everyone post some kind of season review, including at least a screenshot of a league table and the clubs transfer page. If you give this a title in bold it makes it a bit easier to pick out. How to Post a Screenshot While in FM, press Alt and F9 A picture will be saved to a screenshots folder, in the FM16 folder in your documents Upload the image to an image hosting website such as Imgur Post the direct Url to the image here. How to Add Links At the top of the forum, go to 'Settings' then 'General Settings' (on the left). At the bottom, select 'enhanced interface' and save the changes. This will give you access to the extra posting tools that make it easier to post links. Once you've done this, highlight the word you wish to turn into a link, then use the link button (looks like a little globe) to paste in the direct Url to your screenshot.

Thebaker Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I would guess that very few reps have changed, looking at the club reps (given in stars) for england.

Tobias Funke Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Decided to start with Colwyn Bay since it came up on the first load and is just up the road from me. I'm gonna try and see if I can have some success using a good old fashioned Little 'n' Large 4-4-2 ala Heskey and Owen (poacher and target man) with a nice dollop of Pulis style hoofball thrown in, will make a change from trying to force pub league players to play tiki taka football.

michaeltmurrayuk Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I'll get this posted nice and early this year so it doesn't get lost in the middle of the thread somewhere. This is how I start the challenge off, if anyone is new or struggling at the start, though it's not the only way to do the challenge and is based on FM15 information as I haven't really had a good look at FM16 yet: - When picking a club Reputation, facilities and stadium will effect how difficult the first few seasons are - the better these items the (slightly) easier it will be, with facilities and stadium generally affecting how much money you have in the early years as rubbish small stadiums will need more money spending on them to meet league rules. Region also plays a part, if you pick a club based in the north west you'll be able to attract players from Manchester not London and viceversa. The other thing to consider when taking off a team is their kit colours make sure you pick a team who's colours you can read easily. - Also a quick way to find the promoted teams is to run the holidayman bit before adding any custom logos as most if not all conference sides should be licensed, so the newly promoted sides will be the ones with the default generic logos. - Once I have picked a club the first thing I do is sign the assistant with the best judging ability attribute possible (potential is nice but not as important, I also find tactical knowledge helpful for the OI if you use them, other attributes depend on what you want your assistant to do) also try and sign a quality scout if possible again you want the best judging ability you can get, with potential a nice one if you can get it. - For coaches it depends on how many you can have, if you have the numbers I tend to go for a GK and fitness one - though if you can try and sign them as general coaches so they can still train anyone, then I use me and the assistant for general coaching. You can also 'cheat' a little bit by signing coaches with good judging ability and use them as extra scouts, as at this level training isn't going to do much and the more accurate scout reports you can get quicker the better. - Ask for a Parent club (or senior affiliate as they now seem to be called) for free loans - depending on how the game is feeling you might get some free first teamers or at worst have to settle for some free bench players which can at least save you some money. (the ability to get parent teams and the quality of loanees seems to change each version, hopefully this will be a nice one) - Pick your basic preffered formation (4-4-2, 4-3-3, 4-2-3-1 etc...) roles and duties don't matter at the moment, though have a general idea of what you want, for example I tend to play 4-4-2 and in the centre of midfield I'll have a defensive minded player and an attacking minded one, and upfront I'll have a goalscoring (hopefully) and a support striker - though actual roles depend on my players and what works. - Go through your exisitng players and work out their best position, also check your U21 and U18 squads incase anyone decent is hiding in there. Use the Report and Squad Depth screens, I also add some extra columns to the squad view - Ability and Potential columns, you can also add best position and role columns if you wish. This year we have some new columns in the tactics screen - a role rating column that seems to give your assistants star rating of the role, and a green bar chart that seems to be based on the average of the key attributes for the selected role - at this level I'd probably use the green chart rather than the stars. - Pick your Best XI and Second XI from your existing players, this now allows you to see where you are weakest, also check for any AI made future signings, I think the squad depth screen has a filter to include future transfers, you may have got lucky and had the AI grab you a good player. - Check the Contract Offers view on the squad screen to see if the AI has offered any of your players a new contract, and cancel any offers you don't want, also check the expiry dates of the contracts as some players may only have a week left on their contract. - Before making any offers for players you need to check a couple of things to see what standard of player you are looking for, a quck glance can be had by looking at the Team Report -> Comparison screen, this will give you the highest and lowest averages for various attributes in your league per position, in the Conference North 10/11 is normally good for a key attribute. Next from the player report screen check to see what level the stars correpond to - players will have a star rating which will change depending on expectations, quality of players and league, however players also have a description that doesn't change which will read decent/good/leading and then a division, you need to keep on an eye on what level the stars are at, as for example at the start a decent conf north player may be five stars as your team is rubbish but a month later may only be two stars as you have found better players. - Now it's time to find players, what I do is filter by interested players within scouting range, and add conditions unattached and eu-national (you aren't likely to attact players from other clubs at this stage nor will players get work permits at this level) and then add a position filter and search for the position you most need a player in. - Next step depends on how many players you found and what staff you have, you have two options; - Trial players in - reveals all attributes, once on trial can compare with other players, downside players may not accept trial and it also seems players on trial attract more attention from AI players. If trialing do it for 1 month/end of pre-season. (Though I think trialling was changed in one of the patches for FM15 and no longer reveals attributes instantly, but is still an alternative to scouting) - Scout players - limit to how many you can scout, new system takes time, however no need for player to agree terms, can also get coaches to scout if they are any good. - Once you have scouted/trialled players for one position move onto the next, if you have the staff you can assign one member of staff to scout players of one position whilst another scouts a different position. - If you scout a player and still aren't sure trial him in, you can use scouting to weed out the useless players and then trial in the possible ones to have a closer look. - If there is no interest in a player then trial him in and take your time, unless he looks really good. - Priority is first team players squad depth isn't important yet and can be filled with free loans or non-contract players. - Once the season is under way carry on searching (transfer window doesn't close until march in non-league) as better players will be interested as the season goes on. (free players get more desperate the longer they are without a club). Tactics wise keep it simple and if not sure where to start check out the tactics forum - there are some stickied threads to help you understand the roles and how they are linked, otherwise it's just watch the matches and slowly tweak things depending on what is happening. The first season I tend to write off - you have to build a team, understand the new features and work out a tactic, if you are lucky things will start coming together at the end of the season and you may sneak a playoff spot or if not be in position to push for promotion next season. In your second season you should have a better idea of what you need and what works, I also tend to have a core team by now and just look to add some players with that extra bit of quality. Once you have gained promotion you repeat all of the above, until you gain promotion again and repeat the above again etc... Getting quality players in the early years is part luck part how much time you have - to find the gems you may have to scout/trial thousands of players which takes time (both real and in game), you also cannot always rely on poaching players from other peoples games as at this level most of the released players we are after have random attributes and have had a season or more to develop/fail. Another way to narrow down players on your scouting screen is to add the last club column to the view and first check out the players released from bigger sides (unfortantely there is no column to show what division the side was in). You can also check the transfer history for clubs (or even england) for released players and scout them and hope that you can persuade a quality released player to sign for you. Another cheeky thing you can do at the start is look at the reserve teams of the prem sides and scout the ones who's contracts are expiring (or get a team report) because we start a week before the contracts expire and in the past AI teams haven't looked at these players until they have been officially released, so you might get lucky and be able to snap one up before the AI gets interested.

I liked the St Neots badge and that they had average youth recruitment and average training facilities, so I chose them over Cambridge City, which was my second choice.

cmpn Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Anyone tried Salford? Do you get the 'class of 92' experience? Could be a good save with them putting money into the club and trying to become the top side in Manchester I just signed with Salford. I noticed my wages seemed a bit high, considering the league and my experience. Transfer budget as well, which is set at $248K (sorry for the Yankee numbers). Almost feels like cheating, but I am notoriously terrible at this challenge, so I think I'm going to stick with them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadfncat Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I was going to start with the San marino challenge this year, however the edited local league wont be out for awhile so going to give my annual dafuge challenge a crack I have signed on as manager of Bognor Regis. Heading to bed now, but ready for a good game tomorrow! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruh Roh Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Think a lot of people will be watching "Class of 92" with Salford in the mix this year. Wonder how it plays out in-game with the Singaporean owner, he's also in charge of Valencia. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
XaW Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 5 games into the season and things are going very well for me. We have won 4 and gotten one draw so far with my VERY basic 4-4-2 formation and without many players in. I haven't been able to get much better players in so far, due to the fact that scouting seems to take much longer this time around. If I get a simple report I usually only see a range on 3-4 stats and the rest are completely unknown. While this takes some time to get used to I like it. I'm really enjoying FM16 so far!

Crispypaul Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Out of curiosity could this be played using FM Touch (Classic?) Just I struggled with time for FM15 so am seriously looking at this mode for FM16. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it possible to load the players from the three feeder leagues on that version? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
