You get 1 million + your treasury + 10K for each game played + 5K for each TD + 5K for each casualty (games played, Cas and TD's are for the past season only).

I also think there is no spiralling expenses.

Seems interesting.

Very interesting. But will need tweaking. I play in a perpetual online league - 7 game seasons would decimate teams using that formula. 14 game seasons it could work reasonably well.Obviously will need to be tailored to suit the different leagues.

Thanks for the pics.

With redrafting it says "create your team again - just as you did when you first joined the league". Does that mean 1kTV?
The petty cash rule as written in the photo seems to give an advantage to the lower TV team in that they can add more to the petty cash after the high TV team has chosen to buy (or not) inducements. Is that the case, or is there something else elsewhere which would alter that?

Spiralling Expenses is in it just as CRP starting at 175.

I wonder how "Expensive Mistakes" fits in with all of this? Also, my undead and Khemri teams have no problem making money, so rebuying players shouldn't be an issue. Fagile teams will have a much harder time affording it.

Spiralling expenses is an optional rule. Expensive Mistakes can wipe your treasury out or not based on the off pitch antics of your players. It makes having high amounts in the bank risky. The richer the team, the more likely its stars are to go wild on a night out and trash the vip room at the Altdorf branch of Spearmint Gryphon.
Use either or both. Expensive Mistakes has the benefit of being nice and easy.

Between the Wants To Retire bit and the amount of cash available at the start of a season, it's designed to make it difficult to carry on using all your stars each season, you should have to make hard decisions and let some go sometimes.
I think it works well for people who like that sort of thing in a perpetual league, certainly better than past forced retirement ideas. Not for everyone certainly, but it's a fresh take on it.
If you don't re hire a player that wants to retire you gain a free assistant coach. They want to retire but are apparently reluctant to leave. Partying with the players at Spearmint Gryphon is a hard life style to give up after all, and not everyone is suited to a career as a pundit or after dinner speaker.

All of this should be considered tweakable, if it doesn't work perfectly for your league you adjust it. We're all experienced at this stuff, and GW would be horrified with the idea that we were following these rules to the letter if we weren't enjoying them.

The seasonal thing with cash resets and carry-over players sounds a lot like how we've used Free Agents in OFL franchises over several eras. The general opinion seemed to be that the ability to retain some high-level pieces in a team with rookies alone was found to be less than ideal and made some pieces far more effective than they would otherwise be in a "normally" levelled environment.
The way we used it was you could carry over our own team's players at normal cost. We also had the ability to hire Free Agents (same sort of player but no team) at an extra cost which was normally more than the 20k for "wants to retire". Even those players were considered cheap, so we changed it such that the cost of the skills the player had defined the amount extra he cost: if he had 100k of skills he cost 50k extra, for example. Since the league went on hiatus that's not be tried out yet.

I am actually quite excited to see how this would work in an obblm situation, it might just be a lot of extra admin work.

but all in all, I am excited to get my grubby paws on it and add stuff in.

well the new MVP rule makes more sense with re-drafting a new team every season.

But if I ever got to play in a league with these new rules, I would not in any way be playing a team with expensive positionels (or even AG2).

Well that shuts out a lot of teams, what is left Humans and Skaven?

I quite like the new rules. Carried over teams will probably have a lot less big guys as they are expensive.

[Darkson]

Houseruling that out, if it's not already optional.

[DarthBLU]

I love new rules

[fromherashes]

I love new rules

I love lamp.

[DarthBLU]

Very funny. I love new rules in general. I get bored when games stay with the same rules for ages.

Or Underworld. Keep the killers, keep only the super Goblins and the rest of the skaven you can afford. And then maybe keep your TV low so you get skitter stab stab

[birdman37]

Have they kept this rule?

If the League Commissioner says that Dwarfs can now fly, your response must be 'Yes Sir! How high?'

If so, then I don't see what all the fuss is about...
