ok, this is a challenge that ive wanted to do for quite a while, but have never actualy realy got going on it. so i thought if i put it up in here, it may help me stick at it!
Challenge: Win the European Champions League with Luch Vladivostok What makes Luch Vladivostok so special? - Vladivostok lies on Russias far east coast, it is only a few miles from China & North Korea, and Japan lies just over the water. Yet despite being completly, 100%, in Asia,... Luch play in the Russian league, which of course means that they can (should they qualify) play in European Competition.
Luch are obviously, by far the most eastern team in the Russian top flight...
Geography of Russian Premier Division Teams Wikipedia Page Rules
Start a new game as follows...
1. Large Database
2. Real Players
3. Attribute Masking On
4. Leagues Allowed...
Russian Premier Division (first division optional)
England (optional)
Italy (optional)
Spain (optional)
My personal preference is to run the top divisions of the top 3 european leagues (England, Italy & Spain), the only reasoning behind this is that i feel it keeps the game in a better balance as time goes on. I will also be running the english championship, just incase in the future, when i finish the challenge, i want to manage everton, who will no doubt have been relegated
5. Thread Rules
as far as the thread rules go, just be sensible. im going to say that player naming is allowed, and that players should post a seasonal update with screenshots. i will post a table of players and their progress... including highest league positions, and the furthest they have managed to get in each european competition.
6. International management not allowed untill the challenge has been completed.
7. Signing players
In general i would expect people to only sign players whom they could scout, however im going to leave this up to each players discression. i just dont like the idea of coming across a player from say china, with full stats visable, and not being able to sign him, because my scounts can only go 'within this reigion' (eastern europe) despite the fact that china is only a few miles down the road! in short, i would hope people were sensible with this and only signed players who they could either scout, or were already able to see their full (un-masked) attributes.
8. No additional players from nations
thats about it i think, please feel free to ask questions if i havnt covered everything.
just got to hope that some people will be interested.
