So I have just started a fling team and doing well 2/0/0 so far.

I have 100k in my pocket ready for the next game and was thinking about hiring a master chef.

My question is how do you do it I assume it is during the inducements stage but just wanted o know exactly what happens when you buy one.

Also is it better as a fling player to keep the cash incase of a cas heavy match or if something happened to a tree. Or should you just take one game at a time and try and win them all.

Finally do people who play against flings get annoyed if you steal their rr or do they just accept it as a known risk of playing flings.

Thank you

answer on last question: anyone getting annoyed at that deserves everybody's mockery.

When you play you will have noticed it asks you whether you want to add petty cash or not.

just play any team with 100k more TV and you'll get the inducement money.

Other coach started to obsess about tacking out trees with his mummies - which kind of let off my flings quite a bit. Too be fair in both games I had a little ttm luck, but so far so good.

well you always need a little luck with flings. But beating undead is awesome, they should absolutely slaughter flings with ease, they are one of the toughest races for rookie flings to face when you dont have all your inducements etc.. (obviously excluding the dwarf races).

The easiest solution is to look for an opponent who is 100k up, then you will get a chef AND get to keep your money for replacing a tree or smth.

Please note this is also a form of minmaxing. (Except it is done with a Tier3 race.)
Point is that aversion against minmax is not a theoretical, but a practical verdict.

regarding something at the end of a continuum as nonexisting is an argumentative flaw

I would agree with the Sage. Maybe use the 100K every now (such as in a big match or tourney) and then but you want to have enough money in the bank to replace a treeman. Also when you spend 100K on inducements the other side gets 100K inducements free (if my understanding is correct).

Yep, if you spend 100k (or any amount) that amount is added to the other teams budget as well.

However, if you are getting 60k in inducements and spend 100k the other team will only wind up with 40k to spend. So in that case you're essentially adding 40k to your side at a cost of 100k while the opponent winds up with 'nothing'.

If you are the favorite then whatever you add is added to the dogs already existing inducement balance.

I have a match coming up where I know I will be retiring the team after its completion and I'm debating dumping my ~1m bank just so that both of us can play with all kinds of crazy. Problem is I will already have likely 500k in inducements :p

Why would rookie undead butcher rookie flings?
