We would still need the ability to modify those managers, because unless things like PH/PR frequency is fixed, we need the team strategy pages as a tool for correcting unauthentic AI decision-making and gameplay that are systemic. So, right now, I'm glad we have that tool available to us. Since I want to vary settings in these pages, from team to team, I try to match it with what the real teams actually seemed to do in 1960 as much as I can. Part of this is just my interest with authentic gameplay, but part of it is also about getting smarter as to how much these sliders actually affect AI behavior. Eventually, I want to know with some precision what I will get when I adjust a setting or a slider to a lesser or greater degree.
It would help if we had the option to save our strategy settings and share them. Then we could create an assortment of AI managers to choose from. Why Markus has not given us that option, I do not know.
