Makoto Nakamura Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 After doing the same thing twelve times here's something a bit different. A road to redemption. We're going to be starting as an American Samoan born on the island of Ofu, 60 miles west of the main island. I've loaded all the leagues from Oceania made by Reinalda in the steam workshop, Riddlers' 2nd tier Australia file from the steam workshop and Fifteenminutes' U.S.A. file since American Samoa are an American territory and everyone has an American passport. We'll be starting off as the team predicted last in American Samoa's only league and the National Team manager so we can get the true goal started straight away! 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
