are the transportation, entertainment, and lodging costs listed the costs for the whole season or each time they're used? (i.e. am i charged $6.72M for every time my team stays at a 3 star hotel on away games)


also...when would this be charged to my teams bank?


all away game travel and lodging cost cover the season. and home game entertainment covers the season but somethings like free nacho promo are from game to game.


the promos would be charged after the game?

The little ? mark note on the page says it will be charged on day 1 of the season. As I understand it, the charge is for all season and will be charged all at once.


thanks for that plankton. if i could get confirmation of this that would be awesome. don't doubt you plankton. just like being super sure

It's all good. This part of the change seems to be the least well communicated.

AEQ question:

If I create a piece of AEQ today, say +3 Speed. Then maybe a few weeks later I want to enhance it to also have +1 to First Step, will I be able to do that?

What if I decide to do it seasons later, after I've upgraded it a few times with 24 BTs (so, for example it'd now just be a +6 Speed piece with 72 BTs invested, not counting the creation fee)?

With regards to Promotions and the Overage account, I understand that the cost for the promotions will be deducted on Day 1. However, what I do not know is will it pull from my team's cash first or my Overage account? On a related topic, how are the game promotions funded? Will it pull from my team cash or my Overage account? The reason I ask is that I could see a scenario where it pulls from my team cash and then I can not pay salaries. On the flip side, since it costs more from the Overage account, if I can fund it from team cash, I am better off.

Just would like to understand how it works.


Overage account first. If you don't have enough money from the overage account it will pull remainder from team cash. Example:

Team has 20 million in overage account and wishes to purchase a transportation item that costs 6 million. The most this team could spend on a transportation item is 4 million (20 million * 20 percent). This would apply towards the item and there would be a balance of 2 million deducted from team cash.

I'm going to clarify with Bort that this is how it works but I believe this is correct.

Hey,

Really stupid question,

Forgot to buy equipment for one of my players, has none at all, but when I go into buy equipment, is it gonna cost bonus tokens to get the basic equipment? And then the upgrades are free?


No, you can buy first set for 0 BT's.

Yes, you would be able to do that.

If you aren't on a team, click on Contract Offers and you should have an offer from 3 CPU teams.

To confirm: Transportation & Lodging (as well as Home Game Entertainment for the season) are purchased at 20% (5 to 1) from overage fund?

e.g. when I select Tour Bus it shows $1.68 mil - I should expect to pay $8.4 mil (5x1.68) on day 1 from my overage fund?
Or is the price multiplier already factored in to the display (I doubt)?

Finally - any way you guys could code in a projected expenditure for the season calculator as part of this page?
Seems like this is ripe for folks making a mistake and bankrupting themselves.

That's correct. It's not factored in the display.

Equipment received a major overhaul. It is no longer team funded. Read the announcement or one of the stickied threads above.
