Superstar Tradesmen: How to make a team?

I know theres plenty of people who haven't had an opportunity to beta test this great game yet and wonder how this works and how that works. While I won't go over everything I thought I would try and make a nice easy guide on how to get started.

So what to do when you get 1st sign into fml well 1st off there will be an official mail from SI which informs of the rules and regulations of fml. Many people skip this but it does contain some important information and is worth an initial read through.

Now if you notice in that picture theres a flashing red icon in top left setup assistant thsi will guide through all the steps needed to successfully get started in fml.

next up we have the welcome guide. Its just an introduction into a few things like finance, signing a squad, where to find competitions, football associations and season length etc.

Then next up we have the fun part customising your club. This includes picking your home and away kit as can see from my rather rubbish example theres quite a few to pick from. You also get to name your stadium in this part.

After this is a part which relates to my poll in picking your starting skills. Now it might seem like an easy choice but its not really. Scouting will open up the opportunity to sign players unavailable to others more quickly while tactics could mean getting ahead start on the pitch. Finance could affording that superstar quicker or coaching may improve your players quicker.

Then its picking your squad now the setup assistant will guide you to select your team which will take into your preferences and allocate those players.

what you can also do though is go through the all player list and filter down into your needs position, attributes etc and pick that way.

Once you are happy with the picks you will need to confirm your squad this signs players onto contracts which last a season. Then your good to go playa friendly and gewt your teams hope and dreams started.
