Moving teams from one league to another?

Orioles1966 · 09-26-2018, 02:40 PM

Will we be able to move teams (like OOTP) to other divisions/conferences and/or leagues?

This is far fetched but will ask it anyways-what about moving historical teams(and/or players) to the modern day(and vice-a-versa)?

Off the subject but will cloning players be available?

You can move teams between conference and divisions (or remove them).

No to the rest.

Just piggy backing on this questions, but if we remove a team.. what happens to the players?

They're released to free agency, just as in OOTP.

Before when you couldn't delete a team you could remove all the players and change the name of the team and give them all new players.

I did that during the 1972-73 NHL/WHA season moving a few teams too the other league but it was time consuming but it could be done.

I wanted too see what the 1972-73 NE Whalers accomplish in the NHL.

Great idea! I will probably piggy back off your idea but start with 12 teams in ‘67 with as many minor leagues as I get in to absorb the ~ 350 free agents.

Along the same lines, will realignment be possible (adding or removing divisions and conferances?)

On the twitch broadcast they showed it was possible.

They certainly didn't spend much time talking about it.

Can we edit playoff qualification? Say we want to go back to pre-wildcard system can we do that?

You can change the PO system in fictional mode only. That might change in the future but no promise.
