I came up with this challenge after being inspired by this story http://www.fm-base.co.uk/forum/football-manager-2012-stories/92128-az-swedish-immigrant.html, and especially the idea of investing in up and coming Scandinavian stars.
I have to say I really liked this idea and thought that could make for an interesting challenge, maybe because I'm partly Swedish but mostly because Nordic countries can boast an amazing amount of young, talented players in FM12.
Here's the challenge: you can choose any team, in any league, in any country except Nordic countries, and you're only allowed to play and sign players/staff from Nordic countries. Obviously this means you'll have to get rid of most of the personnel at the club and replace them with Scandinavian players, coaches, scouts etc!
What are you going to do? Take over at Ajax and build around Danish wonderkid Christian Eriksen? Join Swedish world class striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic at AC Milan and try to challenge for Serie A? Start with an obscure club in lower leagues and build your own Nordic legacy? You certainly have plenty of options, so choose wisely
Rules:
- You can only use players and staff declared or eligible for Denmark, Faroe Islands, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden. Dual nationalities are allowed as long as players or staff are eligible to represent any of the afore mentioned countries.
- You can keep non-Nordic players and staff at your club if you can't sell them immediately, or if their contracts are too expensive to be terminated. However non-Nordic players cannot be used in competitive matches, and non-Nordic staff cannot be assigned any training/scouting duties.
- Your goal is to win the domestic league and eventually the Champions' League with your All-Nordic club. You are also allowed, and actually encouraged, to apply for NT jobs - obviously only Nordic countries
- It would be ideal to load leagues of Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden and international players from Scandinavian region. If your PC can't handle that I suggest loading international players, players with national reputation and players from top clubs in Scandinavia. That should give you a decent pool of players.
I've just started this with Celtic in SPL, will start posting updates if this challenge picks up some interest.
Good luck!
