In light of the skill costs & TV debate, I'd like to see an option, in custom leagues, where we can create custom skill categories. This way you could bring back 'traits' by creating a new, separate, skill category that's customized for each positional or race & require doubles for that new category. Then at least you could hike up the cost to 30K per 'trait' or whatever you decide to call the new category. And you'd be custom choosing which skills YOU feel need higher costs within YOUR league. To a point anyways.

It's certainly not a complete fix as it wouldn't really be fair, IMO, to require doubles for something like 'dodge' on an elf team just to hike the cost of blodge to 50k from 40k. So I'd also like to propose a custom way to assign costs on skills as well. Ideally we would use these two new features, together, as a better approach to balancing skills & their effectiveness in game as well as their respective TV costs.

Thoughts Question Discuss Exclamation

Edit: If this were to happen, we could create a general guide to 'true' skill costs
so the public would have a starting point, to base things on, in their own custom leagues.

I requested this in Christer's original Cl thread. It's on the list but not high up as I think it's quite hard to achieve. Would be great though.

I'd much rather like to see customizable SPP next. The ability to build a real custom player with the current ruleset.

Oh, and if I could add injuries to players that would be the perfection.

No! No! I don't realize that!
But if it's true that would be great news. But no, I do not know that and continue to be in denial / do not believe it. Please verify.

Create a rule-set within the new custom league setting. Click on the 'team settings' tab. Under that tab you will see a choice for 'skill progression'. Under that drop down menu you will have 4 choices, one of which will be 'custom spp's limits'. Wallah Exclamation

Both would be fun and would help with anyone that wants to playtest certain rules changes.

To get a enough people to agree on a custom list to form an ongoing league though, that would be priceless.
