Historic Roster Customer League

earlweaverbbl · 04-01-2021, 03:36 PM

I am trying to set up a 16 team league, and hold a fantasy draft using historic players. You’d think with the level of customization this would be possible. After 16 hours of trying I can’t express how disappointed and frustrated I am. Why in the hell does it have to be this hard. Really want to enjoy this game but I’m about to uninstall it and never purchase again. If anyone has any clue how I can set this up please help!! I can get the fictional league set up fine with 16 teams the problem is when I activate the draft and import historical rosters the players pool is still current day players

You can get what I think you want by using the All-Time Greats quickstart. After you start the game, release all of the players. Then restructure the league as you like (for example, to two subleagues of eight teams each), and run the fantasy draft. The 1,565 players included in the quickstart should include everybody whom you might rationally consider drafting.

Thank you so much for the reply, I appreciate the help!! I was making the mistake of not releasing the players before selecting fantasy draft. This now worked. Thank you!!!!
