There are serious reasons that the game can't handle the myriad of franchise changes, etc., that took place in the pre-1900 era. What I don't understand is why I can't start a fictional game in 1871, import real players and get the game to adjust the era settings, do the three year recalc, and adjust the financials. If I'm able to import the players and handle the franchise shifts as a commissioner, the data for everything else is already in the game: financial coefficients, era settings, and league totals going back to 1871.
