Has anyone given Asia a go and left Europe? I haven't myself but am looking for a change after 9 seasons crashed with my pc. Anyone experienced in the footy of the south-east, is it actually any different to Europe or just the same with unpronouncable names (they have the same major continental competition I notice).

Is Asia worth my time or a waste of it for someone as bad with names as I?

Dunno

I played a bit in China, and the names were a little difficult, but I find Eastern European names equally odd. China is strange the first season, as their league is changing the structure - IIRC, noone is promoted the first season, as they increase the number of teams in the lower division, then from there it is more normal.

One major bug I encountered, that ended the game for me - I was required to have a minimum number (3?) of 21 or under players on each squad, but seemingly no young players were popping up (or at least getting found by my scout), and I was forced to quit after a few seasons when my youngsters grew up. This was on an earlier EP, so likely wouldn't be a problem now.

I played in hong kong, not strictly llm as they only have one playable league. I was the hardest game i ever had.

tough i did find it funny that players from the english first and scottish divisions wanted to come and play on loan!

And how where you scouting them?

Guess he thought Hong Kong still belonged to the UK

The loans I had out in hong kong were players my scout had found while I was in england.

Started at farnbrough, moved to metrostars, then went to fireservices in hong kong, then went back to colchester, and finally on to leyton O's.

All done by the book mkus and Finker

Asia's OK, I tried both the Indian and Hong Kong Leagues and did quite reasonably without seting any records. The only difficulties I found were finding coaches and physios who would join. Local uemployed staff were non existent so I had to use my meagre transfer reserves to lure some from the opposition. I did not take on any English players or staff, (for LLM reasons) other than those who were already out there.
