OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Draft, Trading + Free Agency Rules Question

Hi All,

I've long been a player of sports management games, and i'm just getting into baseball (thru my gf), but before I start my first real OOTP game, I have a few questons... I want to play with rules as close as possible to what they are in real life, so, can you tell me where i'm going right or wrong with the following please:

- The only Drafts are in the MLB (entry draft and rule 5 draft).

- While possible in the game, Trading between leagues - i.e. a team in Mexico trading players with a team in Japan - doesn't happen irl. (so the 'Trades with other major leagues' box goes unchecked)

- However, free agents are free agents, and can sign wherever they like... (This would mean the 'Allow free agents from other leagues' and 'Allow free Agents to leave league' boxes being checked).

Finally, i'm playing with all the default OOTP 14 leagues, plus the Chinese and German leagues that I created myself, but as far as I know they're as factually correct as I can get them.

Thanks for any help you can give me!
