As of now, the journeyman system is in place. Feel free to test it out and report any bugs in this thread.
Thank you. |

I can't get journeymen before next match. Why not? |

Is keeping them an option yet, or is that in the pipeline? |

For those of you who are interested in knowing how it works, but don't have a team that qualifies for journeymen yet, here's a short outline:
- In the post-match sequence, you have the option of hiring any journeymen that played in the last match (if any). If you choose to do so, you have the opportunity to change the name and number of the new player.
- Once you are happy with your team, and still have less than 11 players for the next match, you get a dropdown with the number of journeymen you want to hire for the next match (defaulting at the maximum number). Undeads have two dropdowns, since they can hire zombies and skeletons.
- Clicking the "Ready to play" button will hire the selected number of journeymen (and types), who will end up with numbers 17-27 and random names.
That's pretty much it. I've tried to keep it very simple and quick to manage in order to avoid unnecessary clicking. Let me know what you think |

It should be possible to hire them after the match. |

I have a team that would be eligible for journeymen, but they are not in post game. Does FFB still handle Journeymen even though they are not set onsite? |

So I have a team stuck behind post game that cannot get journeymen
Well, I think I can manage without.
I guess the situation is an undesired state, but will never occur as all teams go from ingame to postgame after result upload.
Nevermind |

Shouldn't you be able to hire journeymens even if you have more than 11 players? Or is that the pre-game phase? When they cost 20k more or something like this. |

That's Mercenaries (which can be any position) and belong to the inducements, thus pre-game. |
