You can mix and match these to expand either the Nihon or Zenkoku Leagues, or run this group as a WHA-like competitor to the JPBO before absorbing them.

A few notes about the teams:

• Most of these uniforms mimic the [LEAGUE REDACTED] expansion teams that MUFC1878, txranger, nutt, and I pulled together, with varying degrees of changes like Okinawa going blue/gold instead of black/gold
• I wound up colour-swapping the Aomori Polaris from green before to pink so we don't have three green teams in the JPBO; with the [confectioner seafarers] not in the game, no one wears pink
• The Black Swans play off the existing J.League team the Albirex and the famous lake near Niigata where the swans congregate. The bill is red/orange to mirror the bird, kinda like their rivals the Woodpeckers over in Sendai
• The Flames added a black alternate like their hockey inspiration, but no Blasty the Horse
• Finally figured out how to do raglan shoulders with the Rovers!

Happy spring training, everyone! This will conclude my work on the project until OOTP 24 when I revise the Quickstarts.

If you don't mind, please let me know via comment or DM which QS(es) you have played or are playing, so I know which to focus on.

With this, we have completed 44 different teams in exactly 24 different cities. This means this quote can be realistically achieved (If you assume the Kansai Cubs play in Nishinomiya while the Hyogo Gladiators play in a different city in the prefecture. We chose Himeji.).

A few questions and a suggestion:

1) You have a lot of links available, but I don't know which I should use. I think I want to use the 1950s quickstart, but why might a person want to use the first two, the ones with templates and why do some of the others list 2 years?

2) I read through the thread and see that you played it out with some teams changing. Does this happen automatically when using a quickstart or do we need to do that manually? Either way is fine, it just didn't occur to me that OOTP had this capability with fictional quickstarts.

3) 24 team leagues are probably the most popular setup. Instead of having the user have to choose set A or B and miss out on some teams, why not make the extra teams all expansion teams that come in at some point? I thought maybe it was tradition, but I see *** didn't always only have 12. I like what both of you and 39_Ringo have done, I don't really want to have to choose only one.

4) Before I decided I should just play yours, I was envisioning making a league with one division, or even one whole league, with Tokyo area teams only and the other divisions with non Tokyo area teams. If you were to go even further away from ***'s setup, would you maybe do this or does it not make sense somehow? I don't know much about Japan.

Again, thank you very much for all of this. It's unfortunate what lead to it, but I think it's great that this is the result.

The result is this. I am very proud of our work.
