Baseball , because I grew up on it has such a natural flow for me. Do You think the manual would help someone with such an elementary understanding of these games?
Thanks.
The manual helped me immensely for positioning and tactics. I do have a bit of an advantage in that I have grown up with hockey and in some small ways the hockey and soccer strategies are similiar. The WWSM manual really gave me an easy to understand explaination for my in game tactics and outlined the key attributes for each position.

I was somewhat lost on how all these leagues interact but some quick research on the internet has answered many questions. If you want any specifics just post here or PM me and I will try to answer them to the best of my ability.

If you love text based sports sims you owe it to yourself to really give WWSM a try. It really is the pinnacle. I still have much to learn about coaching my team properly but the detail of the game is incredible and more than makes up for the somewhat steep learning curve. I am so into this game I have even watched a couple of soccer games on the Fox Sports World channel.
