JacobiteBhoy Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 The aim is to win the European Cup with a team consisting purely of academy raised or other scottish players. For this challenge the following database should be used:- http://www.fast-files.com/getfile.aspx?file=18255 (click on download before the shaded screen comes up) I made this a few weeks ago, and basically all the scottish clubs have had the fruits of their youth academies returned to them, and all the imports and transfers removed. Club reputations have also been adjusted to represent the calibre of player at the clubs. The main sticking point is that only scottish players may be signed, other nationalities may play in your team as long as they were raised within your own academy. Will you lead the free-flowing skillful Celtic to regain they're 40 year old crown? Or will Ranger's with their murray park midfield masterclass lead the scottish charge? Will the Hibees manage to hold on to and nurture the talent of their young prodigal squad, maybe you plan to build on the rock of the solid Hearts defence, or bring the New Firm back to the glory days? The choice and challenge is yours, Good Luck! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacobiteBhoy Posted August 27, 2008 Author Share Posted August 27, 2008 Eh, is anyone going to try this or will it just be a solo mission? lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
antfm08 Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Will most likely be a solo mission I'm afraid. To avoid disapointment use the Ideas thread so you can see if there is interest before making a challenge. http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=20388&page=10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JacobiteBhoy Posted August 28, 2008 Author Share Posted August 28, 2008 Don’t have access to fm just now, but from memory these are the top players at each club:- Rangers Ferguson Gattuso Hutton S Smith Pressley Robson C Adam C Burke McGregor Celtic Mcgeady Maloney McManus Kennedy R Wallace L Miller Mulgrew van zanten Beattie Marshall Hibs Riordan K Miller OConnor S Fletcher S Brown Thomson Stevenson I Murray K McCann D Dodds Hearts Gordon Naysmith C Elliot Berra L Wallace A Driver Severin G Locke Jonnson A Johnston Neilson G Weir Kilmarnock Boyd Naismith Motherwell McFadden Pearson McCulloch Hammell Quinn Aberdeen Anderson Diamond McNaughton Dundee United M Wilson C Dailly All the teams have got loads more decent players, but sadly my memory isn’t photographic.

glamdring Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 A challenge similar to this was actually one of the most popular ever to be done in the FMS forum, although it wasn't identical - obviously it was required to write a story with the challenge and it started with just whatever the standard database is and anyone doing the challenge had to weed out foreign players from their squad and bring in Scottish entirely themselves. As a generic idea it is the one that appeals most to me, but not in FM08 where I've found regens, especially from my own club, to be of appalling quality. For FMS I did it in CM03/04 where it was great fun. Good luck with it though! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
