Hello, please, is it possible to create a custom ruleset in League division with these settings or at least, some of them (especially the first four options)?

1) No Season Re-Draft;
2) TV cap set by Commissioner;
3) 3 skill slots each player;
4) Max 1 stat boost per characteristic;
5) Wizard priced 200k;
6) Treasury cap 200k;
7) 1 rr per turn (although I guess that's a client setting, not a custom league setting, and probably it would require too much developers' work).

Thanks for attention!

To my knowledge...
1) Yes
2) No... You could put a cap on redraft on the other hand, but not during the season
3) Yes, you can define there are only 3 slots and even define the number of spp needed for each
4) No
5) Yes
6) More or less : you can set up a very agressive exponancial expenses table
7) no

Thank you very much!
As an aside, if you can have no Season, why do you have to put a cap on Re-Draft?
Without Season there should be no Re-Draft either, am I right? Or am I missing something?
Anyway, I've gathered enough informations to say that no, you can't play with your own houserules in League division, as koadah always suggests . Very Happy
You can play only with SOME houserules in League division.

How would you change the price of the wizard?

What I meant is if you activate seasons, you can parameter a flat cap. But even this is false, as the treasury will be added to the cap you parametered... :s

I don't want the Season at all. Just TV cap.

I don't like Spiralling Expenses and Expensive Mistakes, both are silly mechanics.
For example, with Expensive Mistakes you could have a Treasury of 100k and lose 30k (which, for an Elven team, is annoying), while bash teams generally swim in gold, easily storing more than 300k (or, to be safe, they can keep the Treasury at max 295k, risking to lose only 30k, which is a ridiculous amount compared to losing 30k for a team with only 100k in the Treasury), despite the Expensive Mistakes rolls (not effective at trimming huge Treasuries as much as they should).
That means that bash teams can afford to replace quickly the positionals they rarely lose, compared to teams with expensive and squishy players like Elves.
Moreover, if an overdog team stores gold can use it to buy Inducements and get an advantage it doesn't need and should not have.
I just want a max Treasury value. Simple and effective.
Expensive Mistakes mechanic sounds fancy on paper, but it's just "rule bloat", to use your words. Rolling extra dice in the post-match phase for the sake of it.
With a Treasury cap all the Treasuries would get closer and Inducement abuse would be harder to do.

I mean I see no functional way to change the price of a wizard in the customization options

If you want to have TV cap on custom league its perfectly doable manually.

Also you can rule 1 stat increase per player/stat and admin it manually.

So those are as easily done as on table.

I'd add that number 4 can't be set automatically but you can easily enforce it as a Commissioner. Just plain state it in the League rules, and if someone accidentally forgets it and takes a second +stat you can edit the player giving back the spps or turning the +stat into whatever you like, or just erase it. As a League Commish you have full control over all players of all teams and you can edit them to your likings.
You can also give spps, take spps, set extra spps and skills, so the "no more than +1 per stat" is very easily enforced. Just not automatic.

No but, if people could play their own house rules elsewhere, I guess they would not complain about official rules on FUMBBL forums.
People complaining here are interested in being able to play house rules here, not elsewhere. Smile

Thanks everybody for the replies, much appreciated!

yes and also for wizard. I play a league where we have a "wizard" rule package. "To induce a wizard your team must be a 300k underdog, and you must buy an Apo and a keg first (150k) then the wizard (150k)"
But you can write whatever rules you want
for instance if you want to have wizard cost 200k you can define a rule " purchase a wizard only if you have 200k : proceed in this way you purchase wizard by 150k , then the 50 k more money need to be spent by purchasing and firing 5 assistant coaches in the post match sequences....
for instance.

it requires some micro-management but if leagues rules are clearly mentioned in the main page is not so complicated.
