questions for you
- do you work on your brother's team as much as yours??
- does his team get good bases on is "scoring players"??
- will you be developing is team in "your team's" image??
- what would you do if he got intrested and found a care package with bases that "run"...???
Hi,

1- yes, our current teams are quite the same : I tweaked everything twice, than make fair distribution between the 2 teams

2-as good as mine !

3-on the esthetic aspect, yes. On the tecnical aspect, I'm not sure.

I've got a plan for that : As soon as my "pro" 4.0 team will be completed (figs and bases), I'll make a game against his current "demo" team (fab5 + regular bases), and smash it, I hope. The goal is not to humiliate my bro, but make him interesting in the tweaking aspect and team preparation. The good old "stick and carrot" technic (I don't know if you know that expression in english).

Since I know my bro, I know he will want to upgrade his team to be competitive. So I'll give him spare bases to tweak on his own, helping him with my humble skills. I think it's a better way to involve him in the hobby than simply give him a "ready to play" team.


We can see the limit of the "ready to play" concept : even if our teams are balanced for now, I'm confortable with my own team (making sacks etc...) because I tweaked it and I know each fig on the field. Even if the games stills competitive because he observed how his team works, he doesn't have that advantage.



4- I'll adapt my own team ! If he becomes enough good and involved to force me to adapt, I'll be the happiest MF player

Dimitri
