Cardboard Heroes Looking for GMs

electrickeeper · 01-03-2017, 10:55 AM

Cardboard Heroes is a new OOTP 17 Historical League, looking for General Managers.

About us:

United Leagues currently operates a modern, 30-team MLB league, and is in the planning stages for a 16-team fictional league, as well as the historical league.
We use Slack as our main communication method, although we use a forum for trade postings and other important league items we wish to preserve.

A little background on the league itself:

The league begins in 1962
League expansion and relocation will happen according to history, however player movement & rosters will not, so it's a somewhat alternate history.
For 1962, 1963, & 1964, there will be no amateur draft, just the Rule 5 draft. The amateur draft will begin in 1965 as it did in real life.
We will be using Reserve Clause Era rules until 1975, when it was removed from MLB.
We will be using both coaching and scouting.
20-80 ratings with potential ratings-only
No ratings recalculation
Currently open teams are: N/A

If you wish to join or have more questions, feel free to contact me.

Is there a website for this league to look at yet?

I'm planning on having the site up by the end of the week. We just moved hosts and transferred domains, so I want to set everything up properly before we get going.

With only one team left available, I think it is a safe bet that the league will be full before the website is published.

What say you, Josh?

The full website, yes. However, I did manage to get the league reports up last night.

CHB is now full! Remember that United Leagues operates one other modern league and is developing a fictional league, so feel free to contact us if you're interested in any of the three!

Just had a last-minute withdrawal - the Boston Red Sox are now open - our first spring training sim is tonight, opening day is Friday!
