I don't want to set anything in stone yet until we have our full compliment of 24 teams & everyone has a chance to have their say (rule changes, league operations, etc..).

Someone mentioned retaining 2 or 4 fighters from their roster when the league folded.

It was also mentioned that we not use any fighter currently on a roster from season 5 in the inaugural draft of the UTBA II.

Both would be easy to implement.

I think we will do a draft similar to the one when the first UTBA took off. Everybody will send me a list of fighters they would like and I'll cross off any duplicates from the respective rosters and inform the owners of what I've done by PM.

I'm open to any ideas on how we can set our new rosters up. Let the suggestions begin.

One thing we need to start talking about right now is........what are we going to do about the team cap. With the new aging and rating change that goes with it, our team cap points will be changing during the season as a fighter ages.
Mike suggested that we start the initial draft with the prime overall rating and 105 cap points before we adjust the active fighters to the beginner stage. When I adjust the fighters to beginner, a team cap will fall well below the 105 points. I like Mike's idea but I don't know what to do about the cap after we get established into a season and free agency and everything kicks in.
