Hello. The title says it all really! I will get my copy of FM13 on Friday and dive straight into a story by the end of the weekend to get me up and running! Will (hopefully) add a poll to get a general feeling of what peeps want to see but I have the final say! lol
For those not aware of my past stories I am always in for the long haul, spending at least 10 years per save and with my infamous Bilbao story I nearly reached 30 so I am not one to start and then stop after a couple of days or just because I go on a bad run.
Anywho after much thought over the past few weeks I have come up with these ideas............
THE PENTAGON CHALLENGE
I guess everyone knows about it (has anyone done it btw?) and I have yet to attempt it and will do at some point in FM13 for sure but maybe it's best to wait a little while to find out about players, tactics etc or is that just making an excuse? lol
ATHLETIC BILBAO
Have to try them again after my FM12 story with them! I would be Aitor Herrera, the regen in my fm12 save with Bilbao (over 1,000 apps and 250 caps), and would have an international footballer as a reputation for once since Aitor was better than Pele and Maradona put together lol.
It would be harder for sure this season methinks and dare I say maybe not as fun as my story in FM12 because I wont have a regen like Aitor to help the story along probably!!! Obviously the challenge with Bilbao is due to the recruiting policy that see's Bilbao only being able to sign players who are Basque or 16y/o Spaniards.
THE "OLYMPIC" CHALLENGE
Had this idea for a while now. I would go a team, any team, and for my entire career I would have to manage my squad so that there was no more than 3 players aged 24 or over - just like the squads in the Olympics. This would mean I would have tough decisions to make year on year as I would have to keep chopping and changing my squad.
It appeals to me because at the very start you would have to do a squad clearout which wouldnt make you popular and when you get to the point in the save where you win everything you will be making your rivals stronger by having to sell some of your best players!
NEWCASTLE UNITED
The love of my life, well apart from my daughter (and Aitor Herrera lol) that is! Always go them first when I get my new copy of FM but it is a bit easy when you get to the top I suppose.
EUROPEAN CUP WINNERS CHALLENGE
Just popped into my head 5min ago. The challenge would be to manage teams to Champions League glory but I could only manage teams who have won it before from Villa to Benfica, Barca to Steaua, Celtic to Feyenoord. Probably wouldnt manage them all (22 clubs) but I could at least try and get half done!!!!!
Or maybe I could get 2-3 other peeps and we could try and do it as a group and just post season updates. More of a challenge than a story lol
ANYONE ELSE???
I am open to suggestions! Dont really fancy the San Marino challenge and I will never ever ever go Rangers, or Sunderland!
