You are only allowed one final custom formation with player roles and team instructions.

Now onto how this is going to work. Basically, I want you to give me a template of what your custom formation/tactics/player roles/team roles looks like, kinda map it out for me, either in text form, or a picture of some sort, or if you have the game, make the formation in the game and take a screenshot. Now, just because you've given me a custom formation/tactics/player roles/team roles doesn't mean it's confirmed as the one you've given me might not be viable in the game. Every custom formation/tactics/player roles/team roles you give me, I will try to make it in the game as close as possible, afterwhich I will take a screenshot and post it for your viewing. Then it's up to you if you're happy with it or not. You are NOT allowed to use a custom formation/tactics/player roles/team roles for matches if it's not been confirmed by myself. If you post a screenshot of the custom formation/tactics/player roles/team roles from the game itself, then consider the it automatically confirmed as it's obviously viable.

Of course, you don't have to use custom formation/tactics/player roles/team roles at all.

If you created a custom formation/tactics/player roles/team roles last season and would just like to continue using that one, let me know in this thread also. Also, if you wish, you can add player roles/team roles to the standard formations also, like 4-4-2 or 4-3-3 in this thread, but like everything else, these can't be changed once you've done them.

Also, you are not allowed to change player roles and team roles in every match. The player roles and team roles you assign with your final custom formation are the same roles that will be attached with that same formation every time.

You are not allowed to use classic tactics.


With regards to player roles, you can have one player role for the following positions in your formation:

Goalkeer: Defend (default)
Sweeper: Defend, Support, Attack
Central Defender: Defend, Stopper, Cover
Full Back/Wing Back: Defend, Support, Attack
Central Defensive Midfielder: Defend, Support
Central Midfielder: Defend, Support, Attack
Central Attacking Midfielder: Support, Attack
Winger: Defend, Support, Attack
Striker: Support, Attack


With regards to team roles, here's what you have available to choose from. You're only allowed to choose one option for different team instruction:

Team Mentality: Contain, Defensive, Counter, Standard, Control, Attacking, Overload
Passing Style: Short, Mixed, More Direct
Closing Down: Press More, Mixed, Stand-Off More
Tacking: More Aggressive, Mixed, More Cautious
Marking: Zonal Marking, Mixed, Man Marking
Crossing: Float Crosses, Mixed, Drilled Crosses
Player Roaming: Stick to Position, Mixed, More Roaming
Defensive Line: Deep, Normal, Push Up
Width: Narrow, Normal, Wide
Tempo: Quick, Normal, Slow
Time Wasting: Rarely, Sometimes, Often

*Ibad, if possible, I want to have a small variation of this formation which will become 4-2-3-1 custom (B) - the only change would be that RAM - Reus (Attack) would drop next to CM - Cabaye (Support) and become another CM (Support) - after that focus passing will change to left flank only, it's only one minor change - I hope it's okay with you*

Is this ok Ibad or you want me to post a ScreenShot from FM13?
 
i have planned a new tactics for Royal Mafia. Will use them..
 
No, you have to do it now with you custom tactics.

How can i select playmaker before the match?

Lets say i choose Hazard who is a LWM now.If he gets injured i may have to make Granero the Playmaker who is a CAM and doesnt play at LWM position.

Same with TargetMan.

So you should allow us to name the TargetMan and Playmaker for each match separately.

its about the position. If a player is not playing then the other player playing on his position will automatically become a playmaker or target man..

Well thats a problem.Because the replacement player may not be best suited to play as playmaker.

Hazard is a natural LWM and a good Playmaker.But his replacement.Rodriguez is not a good playmaker and in that case i would like Isco or Granero to be the playmaker both of whom are CAMs.Will that be allowed?

Sir, this rule was implemented last season aswell. You can't add players later in your tactics. Sorry but this what the rule is.

Can CM-R's role be changed to (DLP, Support) instead of (AP, Attack)
Also, please put the Wingers on Attack and the CF on Support.



Much appreciated.
 
With those 2 minor changes, this is how my custom tactic should look. Apologies for causing any inconvenience.

most of the managers posted the screenshots directly from the game so it is not required. Also the remaining formations are very clear so don't need to show any screenshot..
