Some advice on creating a historical league

frank_olaf · 06-06-2015, 05:14 AM

I just started a historical league with the Mariners in 1995 but I want the players to develop naturally in the game, not as they did in real life (i.e. Griffey won't start getting injured a lot in the early 2000s and lose some skill). I don't want this because it kind of feels like cheating because I know which young players will turn out to be good and when to get rid of certain players.

To do this, do I need to untick the 'recalc player ratings based on real stats after each year' option?

Thanks

Thanks.

Just two other questions, does scouting ever become enabled (possibly after the first full season)?
And
Do more personnel become available over time. The amount of coaches and managers is very low.

Thanks.
