Here is my big question (thank you for this guide Matt) how does all of this relate to individual player strategy?

For one, it seems if my manager (I am GM only) isn't allowing me to control general strategy, I can just override his wishes by implementing individual player strategy? Is this the case?

Why doesn't/won't the AI managers also influence individual player strategy? It doesn't seem to reason they would have a general strategy, but none for individual players??

Generally it seems that general strategy and individual strategy either contradict or play off of each other. This is confusing to me, and I am curious as to exactly what type of relationship the two different strategies have with each other? Clearly individual strategy is more granular, but beyond that, I just don't understand if this relationship is contradictory, symbiotic, or something different. An in depth explanation on this aspect of strategy would be very helpful.


Also...If my Manager has preference (his own managerial philosophy) I assume this is what I am getting when I ask him to set up the team strategy...now, why then am I able to tell the manager to implement any one of the preset strategies?
I am not sure how and/or why things work in this manner. Is there an upside or downside to doing this?

Note: My manager is very controlling and doesn't allow for much tinkering...so why would he allow me to change the entire team philosophy with one of the pre-set strategies?


Thanks again for your help in clarifying all of this Matt.
