Moving fighters up to a higher weight class

[gene21253]

I would actually like to start a universe with only 8 weight divisions like in the old days .

Have any of you estimated the impact of moving folks up from the jr divisions to a full blown one .Example jrlw to lw . Do you think the automatic adjustments built into the game work or do you use alternate methods ?
Do some of you just play this scenario without adjustments for weight class?
I am curious how the folks out there use this process
Thank you

This is what I did with my universe. I got rid of all the in between weight classes. It helped add depth to the original 8. I just changed their weight class on the fighter page and then uncheck the box to adjust for weight differences and it seems to be working out ok.

I have been thinking about doing just that .

Anyone else with any thoughts .

I think Mugsy's way of doing things is the tried and tested method of getting the results you want with the original 8 weight classes mate.
