Can someone provide me a link with home court advantage point math with both of the PR-manager specialty, crowd involvement and national appeal. Or maybe you can explain it.

Like this link for example:

Sorry I double post because of lag. I thought this thread is not posted yet before I post the second one.

I don't know of any "maths" or statistics but here is the basics from the game manual.
# Crowd Involvement: Your team will experience a slightly stronger Home-Court Advantage for your home games.

# National Appeal: When your team is on the road, your opponents will have a slightly decreased Home-Court Advantage.


So to sum it up:
Crowd Involvement makes your team better at home.
National Appeal makes your team better away by decreasing your opponents home court advantage.

Ya I read that on game manual.

But I forgotten which guide which I have read, it mentioned that in a game, a home team will have an advantage, and in the same game, the away team with a National Appeal PR-Manager will decrease the home team advantage.

But I still don't know whether the National Appeal will balance both of the team or the home team will still have a reduced advantage.

Does that means that the away team will have advantage over home team for the above situation, or the home team still have advantage over the away team.

And,

What if there is this home team with Crowd Involvement, and away team with National Appeal, in this situation, will the team advantage be balanced, or will the home team have advantage over the away team?

As the manual said, the NA PR manager only decreases HCA, doesn't negate it. So I think the logical interpretation would be that the home team will always have the advantage, although that advantage can be lessened.

The only way you could look at the maths of it is if you were looking at the game engine code. You could look at some statistics but I think it's pretty hard to collect the data for this one as you can't tell without asking what PR manager teams have.

Basically the Home team always has an advantage but the size of the advantage depends on what PR managers the teams have.

and the hca advantage is still very big, even against an national appeal PR ;)

The exact difference betwenn, the pr specialities made would be a intresting fact for me but i don't expect that they make a "big" difference.
