Sounds good that fictional leagues can have more expansion.

You can't move teams in FHM 2. Player editing is possible.

He's speaking of manually moving every single player from Team A onto Team B and then manually moving every player from Team B onto Team A, and renaming the teams.. It's definitely not a traditional way one would think of "moving" a team and obviously their team histories would then be for the former team ... but it is a workaround that I'm pretty sure would work just fine for what his purposes are.

In modern games, if you expand the NHL, the two new teams will get a team in the AHL and the ECHL. All 3 leagues get new schedules generated and the special AHL case is gone (all AHL teams play the same number of games).

In fictional games you can expand the major league but the new expansion teams don't get a team in the minors. Thats due to the way we handle expansion in modern mode, which was not possible to do the same way in fictional. Whenever we have the time, we will reconsider it.

Not sure what you mean but to make it clear: in FHM 2 expansion can only happen AFTER the first season (between season one and two) for the first time.

Will points pct.(for determining playoff teams) also disappear if the AHL expands?

It will revert to the old points system (which makes sense when all play the same number of games).

how will it work with expansions in online mode? I'm planning to have an online league with a friend, where we'll each take charge of an expansion team after simming the first season. will we be able to conduct an expansion draft with the two teams?

Is it possible to separately expand the minor league as well and manually assign a major league affiliation?

No, it is only possible to expand the NHL and major league in fictional.

In OTP in League Structure you can add Teams manually either Fictional or Import Historical Team then go into League Afflications and change Teams Affliate,What League that is a Parent of or so on.
Shared Affliates allowed?

Once again, this game is not OOTP... It's a different game and a different sport and doesn't share all the same options with OOTP.

You can change which major league team a minor league team is affiliated with, but not the other things you mention.

mgom27 · 09-25-2015, 08:14 PM

Yes we knew that but somebody ask about moving Teams and move Teans around to other Divisions and is a must so I can do the NHL Geographic.

Can we add a Histirical or Fictional League or World Template into a 2015 League?

mgom27 · 09-25-2015, 08:15 PM

we know this an't OTTP but at sometime down the line should have like League Structure Page,Histirical Options and so on working.

I just want to confirm because at some point it was said the max for fictional leagues was intial+6 (so if you start with 6, the max you could ever have is 12)... so even if we start with 6 we can eventually expand to 36... correct? Is the 2 teams per expansion also enforced for fictional?

Modern game: 3 expansions with 2 teams each, all new NHL teams get a AHL an ECHL team.

Fictional game: the limit for the Major league is 36, we had a tester go from 8 to 24 teams. Still 2 per expansion. Right now new teams get no farm team.

I said that a few times already: it is not our goal to be OOTP (or any other game). We are FHM and with FHM 2 you will start to see that the game grows it's own identity. The real hockey world (modern mode) will always have the strongest focus from us. But don't worry, fictional and historical will also get new cool stuff all along.

mgom27 · 09-26-2015, 09:10 AM

Can we Affliate any other Leagues with ÑHL or the Limit is 2?

I don't need it to be like OTTP but have League Structure turned on and working,Add or Save World Template,Add League to an existing one,Random Draft Classes and so on.
