Just bumping an old thread after playing about 10 seasons (Historical) of FHM8.
Playing as the Blackhawks in the 70's, and as someone mentioned earlier the very starting budget (started on July 1st) in the first season was too low, and I had to click the lowest settings the first while to even get through the Monthly Budget since it was a deficit.
After about 10 seasons with a few cups, best attendance ,etc I've never been able to accumulate enough points to do anything with the annual budget. I've had multiple broadcast deals, etc, and typically spend about 8-12 points/month on Arena Operations / Game Promotion, and/or Morale. Typically don't spend on Scouting except for May / June.
As the season starts and game revenue comes in, I typically go from just below 100 points, and end up around 150-200 when the season concludes. However, as soon as July 1 comes, the owner just takes the majority of it (His Patience is High), and I have next to nothing again for the Annual Budget.. How can I ever get nearly enough points for any of the Capacity Options or constructing a new Arena?
Is this just the decade / historical era I'm in, or is it an issue with any historical starts / games? If I try any op the capacity options my annual budget goes to negative 150-200 and I can't proceed, even with all the monthly budget options turned to the lowest setting...
One other question, when changing the ticket price, the text on the annual screen doesn't change immediately, but I assume the price does go up or down on the backend in Historical and I see it the following year?
Thanks
