I see that you had to change the Rhein Fire to the Rhein MIners. what will you rename the Berlin Thunder?

Berlin didn't make the cut. It was a really tough decision, but I couldn't have an uneven number of teams. I really struggled over this decision, because I love that Berlin Thunder logo. I also thought about making Orlando and Birmingham with the Berlin and Rhein colors and logos, but then I would have lost the neon green and that was a league staple.

I kept Rhein instead of Berlin, because they were one of the original 1995 expansion teams. The Miners logo comes from the old maddenteams.com and it seemed pretty appropriate since the Dusseldorf area is famous for mining. Also, the logo looked like Von Kaiser from Mike Tyson's Punch Out.

well since Madden had the Rhein Fire and the Berlin Thunder in game expect Birmingham to be called Rhein and Orlando to be called Berlin. I am having that issue with my own League. I am thinking of changing Orlando's uni and color scheme to Berlin since i have 4 teams with day-glo green colors (Orlando, Portland Storm (WFL), Sacramento Surge, Washington Federals (USFL))

I had to leave the Thunder and the Fire in the original cities. I followed this league from week 1, and the Mad Doctor, Helmut Joder, and BK just have to be in that ugly green, and its Auburn blue for Chan, Kenny Bell, and "give Pease a chance".

I do think you should use that Berlin Thunder logo, though. It's super cool. The Orlando logo looks like a 5th grader designed it.

What uni are you using for Birmingham? it looks like the one I use, except mine has a red face mask.

what are you going to do for the other 16 teams?

what are you going to do for the other 16 teams?

The other 16 teams are "inactive". They are scheduled to play each other so they do not interact with the 16 teams in my league. Using Amp i moved those 16 teams to NFL Europe [funny enough] and that removes them from the conference standings and players mvp/pro bowl eligibility. So i will sim those games and disregard their activity. Yet, i have user control of them so they don't steal my players or coaches.

Later on, i thought it would be cool to do 2 leagues at once in 1 franchise season. Just like my setup now, but do something official with the 16 "dummy" teams. But i made it this far, so on with my 16 team franchise.
