HT Youth League

Since I couldn't get into the cdz league I started up a small 6 team league and still need a few teams..

Express Youth League (284433)

If anyone still needs a small league to play in..

It's national but I guess I could open it up to international for people wanted to join..

Well then, you'd still have to convince me to start a youth squad and abandon my youth pulls

OK. The Youth Academy is the perfect thing for Civ Players.

The old system is like getting a building done in a city every 10 turns without knowing in advance which is being build.

The new system gives you the opportunity to chose the type of building and influence heavily when it is done. Only sometimes you hope for an University but only get a library. But getting hints.

If you are doing it right, it is some work but leads to better results than the old system. If doing bad you probably get worse results.

You can make your own trainees in the youth system instead of relying on buying. And some features are tested there first (like substitutions) so you can test them there before they appear in A-Squad.

And you can compete in the famous CDZ-youth league (that is from next time on)

And even without my previous luck you can make a profit. I have 5 great prospects in my team atm... Good enough for 1 M at least.

Also often new things in HT are tested first in the YA, like substitutes. This gives you a knowledge advantage in the senior games as well.

Ah...

My cities have a lot of desert but little floodplains. On the other hand, I like governors.

Anyway, I'll join your league if you open it for participants from overseas.
