Probably Personal Reasons even though it would be neat to see War Service added as a cause


I know it would be near impossible to find out every played who served but a hand full shouldn't be hard I have already seen Bill Cook, Frank Fredrickson and Duke Keats

Sorry just re read the first post and seen this brought up was this something still being worked on

I deliberately didn't use this system for the military service guys - in the 40's in particular there would be so many guys gone that it'd cause some serious issues with AI roster management to treat them all as injuries or suspensions. We'll need to add a specific system for managing those guys that effectively makes them temporarily invisible to the AI.

(There's actually a complete list of players in military service in WWI/II at https://www.sihrhockey.org/__a/publi...ry_service.cfm if you want to try it, though.)
