Lucky you. I wanted to change mine too that time but i wasnt sure if i would have the HCA in my league. Yesterday my main rival decided that for him is better to play against bot team on the 1st round than HCA, so now i am looking for PR with crowd involvement speciality

you was lucky that he beat you
I'm happy to spend nothing for a PR
P.S. 320k is not a great amount of money
P.P.S. The abilities have the same efficiency for differente level of specialists,you can also hire a PR level2 and have the same ability of who buy a Pr level 7

I know, but at the same time i have 18k arena to fill. 320k are not big deal for me that i have 4M+ to spend, but what about IV team?

I bought 1 PR today with 14k salary for just 41k.

Sure there is a point, a IV Spanish can beat a I division small country without major problems actually, don't you see it??
Marot, the ammount is not important, was it 320k? could also have been possible for a 2,5m lvl7 trainer, don't you worry ;)

The market isn't a game in a locker room when you have to see who could be the next John Holmes :D
It's not important who can beat you,it's important how he can raise the money and the magnitude of the money we are talking
320k is a sum of money easy to raise in almost every division of every country in the world,in every country of the world,a lot of users can spend 320k in every way they want(wasting it in a level 4 PR,expanding the arena,buying a young trainee or a veteran)
When we talk about a magnitude around some milion(s),you can see that some team can raise these money with little efforts,making some minor trade,a IV spanish team,had to sell one of his best player to do it
That's the point

totally agree. its easier to WIN a Championship in DIV I in a smaller country. Numbers alone support that. But its much harder in a smaller country to build an internationally competitive team. Take me for example, i dominated my country for 5 seasons, but in B3 i got continually thrashed. Why? Because i had no one to push me, to make me better. And i only got to see where i was truly at, in terms of building a competitive team, 1 game a season and thats in B3.

It makes for a extremely boring game. I was so bored infact i decided to sell all my players, despite having another team to win the championship and start over with young trainees.

A smaller country also makes building a competitive NT impossible. So there are advantage and disadvantages to being in a smaller or bigger country. For me, I would rather be tested in a big country then dominate a smaller one.

I have just a small though, which could avoid the boring competions and let the first teams start in lower divisions. I don't know it is possible to realize, but maybe a try.

Maybe you could start small countrys, in "multinational leagues"(like the Baltic league for example) so that small countrys the teams start to play in bigger countrys and since they reach a decent size the BB could announce a "spin off" to the next season, and order the teams after the National ranking to the new created leagues.
This will solve many problems, but in tradeoff you get new ones(spliting rivalrys, leagues, and maybe some unpopular decision when deciding who plays which league).

Just a thought.

This doesnt help an even bigger problem. The fact that NT's for small countries are always going to be a complete waste of time.

Randomise every existing BB team into ficticious locations, make equal size locations and then each NT and club team will have identical challenges and financial benefits.
