The funnel & stay in your lanes defenceman roles

I'm using the funnel offensive tactic in my game and the description states that defenders don't take actively part in offense still both 1st pair defenseman have offensive roles required in the tactic. Noticed also that the stay in your lanes tactic has the same issue. I checked both tactics in FHM 3 and both of them have more defensive roles in 1st pair.

Yeah, I had to allow one offensive required role on D in them, it was causing some lineup AI issues by unbalancing the tactic selection - too many teams would wind up with those tactics because there are significantly fewer players who meet the requirements for a good offensive defenceman than there are for defensive defencemen, and a tactic that let them skip the offensive guy consequently looked too attractive. The function of the tactic isn't changed, it just adds the need for one guy among the defencemen to be capable of producing offensively.

Thanks Jeff and I understand your intention but what I was trying to say is that in of those tactics first line roles for both left and right dman is offensive defenseman. Was that the intention? I'm bringing this up because the Funnel suits well my forwards but I'm struggling to find two good offensive defenders for my first line

Ah, I see what you mean now. No, that's not intentional, we'll have to get that changed. I don't think it'll make it in time for the upcoming update, but I'll be making some other changes to the tactics for the one after that, I'll make sure it's in then.
