Two fhm3 questions

I have two questions..

A) I seen you can relive history... I'm a big Minnesota fan can i relive wild history and wegi back as far as 2000.. Also if u play from 2000 all of the draft classes from 2000 to 2017 gonna be able to be redrafted..

My other question is... I know you guys said u can't expand until 2017.. However if I play say in 2000 can i expand to 31st team before 2017?

I also just watched the first game play video on YouTube... I'm a big believer on giving ppl try outs during training camp and such and spouting my roster and having split squads.. During pre season games we can keep 30-40 players on our roster or only like 23-24 like in that video

Yes, all draft classes are in there.

However if you start a game in Historical Mode, you can't expand even when you go into the future. It's just a limitation on that mode.

As for the training camp - you can only have 23 people on your roster at any given time, but that doesn't stop you from calling up or down players from your AHL team. Players at that point don't have to clear waivers. It's not always ideal, but it works.

Path to Glory, No. Sandbox, Yes. You just need to be in Commissioner Mode, then Edit players.

Adam... In ootp series I know u can change teams affiliate clubs like move from team A to B without renaming them and such and under league structure and such just wondering for example..

When i get to July in my game i want to create 2 new expansion I'm bringing back the good old Peoria Riverman and putting them as Blues farm team and putting Chicago Wolves as Vegas aka match in real life... however do I have to rename the clubs or can i just switch them in the game?

also say i am playing in OHL can i still expand the NHL or do i have to be in the NHL to expand it?

Expansion is only for the NHL (or the top level league if you're playing Fictional).

You can't switch affiliates either, but you can rename them too.

Yes? But you can only control one GM in a game at a time.
