Question on strategy and tactics?
 

Hey FHM'ers :D

When setting up tactics for your team, is the best strategy to choose a tactic that gives you the highest pre-game boost?

For example, Firewagon Hockey will give my team a +7 on offense whereas Stay in Your Lanes! will give me a -1. Does this mean that the Firewagon Hockey is an inherently better strategy? Or are there other factors to take into account aside from the base numbers after filling the lines?

Also I can't find this in the manual, but what do the colors signify in the in-game strategy comparisons? Green, red, yellow?

The colours show the degree of advantage, same approximate colour scheme as the momentum bar - green at the low end, red/orange higher up.

Re: the first question, the tactic that gives your team the higher score is probably the one your players and coach are collectively best suited to, but there are other things to consider, e.g. are the other teams in the league going to be using tactics that are particularly effective at countering it? If you're struggling badly with a particular tactic despite getting decent numbers for it, that may be what's going on.
