Nice Orange. I know there was a discussion about this type of thing along time ago that was pretty interesting. I was just getting to the WWI years and asked a question whether anyone had tried to remove players during the war years (WWI, WWII, Vietnam). For the WWI years, since it only effected about 1 1/2 seasons, I decided to just leave the players alone. By the time I get to WWII (probably OOTP8 at this pace), I was thinking of randomly taking a few players per team (based on age) and giving them season ending injuries (and editing the history) then bringing them back later. I would record all ratings and talents and edit back incase they change....Or maybe Ill just leave them to what they change to, to simulate the effects the war had on them (some may get better perhaphs from physical training, some may get worse perhaphs from shellshock).
