Dr. Hook Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 For those new to the game, or who are not native English speakers, this post will include commonly used Acronyms which, from a post in General Questions, I understand can be troubling for some (hat tip to Karnack): PLAYER POSITIONS (note: When followed by a letter in parentheses e.g. (A) the letter refers to the duty assigned.

Dr. Hook Posted March 17, 2015 Author Share Posted March 17, 2015 Engance is EG, thoAnd Wide Playmaker is WP. Keep in mind that some variations exist as these are not just abbreviations used in the game but also in the various tactics threads. I'll update to reflect these, however.

lam Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I like my abbreviations. They use all of the ones you opened with but I add a (S), (D), (A) after so people can see the duty. DLP(D), CM(A), IF(S), AP(A). etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

managerdude_66 Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 You have listed 'WP' as Wide Playmaker. Adding a side note that 'WP' is also commonly used to refer to Work Permits, might help. Also, both Regista and Raumdeuter are listed as 'R'. Is this intended? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it is intended as that has been used on the forums- the point of this is to allow a new tactics forum user to make sense of what is getting discussed, as we can all get a bit jargony at times. This is just for tactics discussions, not a general FM abbreviations list, so WP for work permit is not likely to be a part of any discussion in here.
