I agree to this new feature. I am really looking forward to using it.

the biggest pro it would have should be the rise of transfered players prices. Since more teams equals more demand. so basicly in a short terms players prices would go up, that would make all the managers happy. but in the long term, considering people will use their second teams to train players in some time we could get the economical situation where players are even more worthless than are now.

I would not like to see foreign managers competing in my country, probably because I am in a macronation and live in clover there. Utopia option is better for me, that would also satisfy micronation managers needs. Except for this, a big yes from me.

i like the idea a lot to have women teams as secondary teams for supporters.

but anyway another point against secondary teams is that it gives a huge boost to small nation which share a mothertongue with a big Bb nation. (for example austria, england idk some little countries where english is spoken) other micronation won't have a similar advantage.

Women BB players? Seriously?

Who is going to pay extra for a WNBA-type second team. Plus they would have a waste time/money/resources to make a face generator for women players.

Let's be realistic here.

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.

Possible cons:
- some countries might use the feature to collude in farming schemes

This
And more important, imho, have a secondary team will only increase cheating, no way cheating decrease. It's enough to have 5 or 6 friends with supporters to bypass the various anti-cheating measures

That's a terrible idea, if BBs want to revamp the game the thing that they should do is focus on game engine to amke all the available tactics viable and thus encourage the team to go with different srategies to grow( sorry GDP can be only a temporary patch AT BEST, not a solution to the problem that most tactics does not work an thus the game become boring because most of the teams plays with the same tactics and train the same kind of players)

Just to be sure...

5. Scrimmage restriction: No scrimmages are possible between the primary and secondary teams.
6. Player transfer restriction: No transfers possible between primary and secondary teams. Additionally, it isn't possible to buy players formerly owned by the other team (primary or secondary). This restriction applies even after the secondary team is abandoned or lost due to bankruptcy or inactivity.
"between primary and secondary teams" means "between the primary team and the secondary team of a manager" ? I think you shoud change both sentences, just to be 100% clear.
Otherwise that would mean a second transfer list for the secondary teams.

I play another game which allows for a secondary team and quite frankly it is an awful idea.

We are told that National identity and grouping is so important for the community, hence why we can only play in the location we sign up for...yet here this is completely ignored.

I have only just joined up and love the fact that I can contribute one day to my national team (the mighty Wales), but this would be diminished if there is an influx of foreign managers who do not care for our national team.

How this will cut down on cheating I do not know!

Surely BB needs to get out there and attract new players to the game?

There is still one big issue that BB-Marin hasn't touched upon. Drafts!!

You can't have some Chinese/Korean/Thailand having a second team in Japan with the intentions of losing on purpose so they can engage in Draft pick sabotage.I say make all second teams outside of the original teams region.
