Warrior General Games

So i was thinking. What could we add to EVERY player. So i thought about choosing a wing span (distance fingertip to fingertip) when selecting height and weight.

Longer wing span: better catching, deflecting, diving/reaching for yards,throwing, tackling tech


Shorter wing span: better carry/rec grip, blocking, breakblck/passrush,strip tech

Edit: have the counter part deductions

The dawn of the T-Rex running backs is upon us.

Stretch armstrong WR vs Mr. fantastic CB

In real life you basically want everyone to have long arms- especially your linemen

Hmmm my thoughts for short arm blockers was keeping the elbows tight to lift your opponents pads but thats more run blocking, pass blocking i can see the need for long arms because a HOF OT can stiff arm a DE and throw him off balance and slow his momentum to the QB. Maybe seperate run and pass blocking between long and short. Kinda like bio traits to with run and pass specialties?

To some extent, but in reality it's the footwork that lays the groundwork for good blocking. You can do it with short arms like mine, especially if you have a ridiculously wide frame like I do, but there is a general advantage to reach you have to overcome for sure.

But there's also an advantage on leverage and in general people with shorter limbs have better balance.


I am damned wide though... I have to wear specially made hats for how big my damned head is, because most people don't make a 4x and 3x is a bit tight, I'm only 5'9", and yet because of how stout my frame is that big noggin looks normal.

No one notices until I have to get measurements for something.

Lol i feel it. My waist size and leg length when measured are both an odd number so i either buy pants to tight or to loose or too long or high waters lol
Nothing ever fits right.

And i didnt think to add balance to the arm length. Makes sense though. But ultimatly i think it should be the same equation/code as height and weight, whatever they may be.

generally long arms mean long legs, and short legs mean better balance. Height basically already kind of has that effect, for sure.

so our dusmorphia kept us out of the professional sports, so instead we pay you to make our dysmorphia into a dot we call our own

My comments aren't dysmorphia, I am fine with how wide I am - It's no flaw, it's a feature.


Well, aside from when I have to buy hats, that's slightly annoying.
