This is my first year playing OOTP, and so far I have just been playing a Modern Day setup, but I've been putting together the pieces of a fictional league based on the 42 territories on the original Risk board for weeks now, and I'm about ready to finally get it going. I wanted to know how to play before getting so deep into this

I'm not even really sure what you need to do to create/implement custom schedules in a fictional setup right now? But this would be the schedule i'm looking for:

There will be 42 teams and 2 subleagues, each with 3 divisions consisting of 7 teams.

I would like each team to play 13 divisional games against one another (13 x 6 = 78)
Then have 4 games each against the rest of the subleague (14 x 4 = 56)
The final games would be 7 Interleague opponents 4 times each (7 x 4 = 28)

I'm assuming it is not possible to make those 7 interleague games be a revolving division year after year?

78+56+28 = 162 games total

I'm not up to speed on everything required, but 3-4 games series with no all star gam. And running during the same time as the real MLB season runs works just fine.

I will search this forum for instructions on how to actually implement the schedule into the game. I would imagine I will have to create schedules for each level of minor leagues also? But i'm betting i'll find those templates on the main sticky post, as each minor league setup I have will not be more than 14 teams in any league.

Thanks in advance.
