Improving the stadium: construction, attendances, revenues...

The stadium. Ah, the stadium. Few things make a manager happier than checking the attendance to a home game and see (100%) next to it. Full cash, a helluva money to buy players, pay salaries or simply keep the club afloat...

But wait! Could he had earned more money with a bigger stadium? Then the race is on to build a bigger stadium that will mean more money, and when the stadium is built and the attendance does not reach 100%... we start all over again.

Because the fate of the stadium is to never ever be able to please the manager.

So how can we improve the stadium in Blackout Rugby to make the managers even more prone to dissatisfaction?


Attendances: Attendances are possibly the easiest thing to improve in Blackout Rugby. Managers could (as in Real Life they can) simply modify the prices for the tickets. Tickets prices could have an effect on the attending crowd. Crowd attendance could have an impact on HGA... Have we never heard of a team deciding to give free tickets for an all-important match? If the standard price of a ticket gravitates around NZ$ 35 (or 20 €) it would be nice as a manager you to be able to increase or reduce that price.

Sometimes even free tickets are not enough and a dedicated
manager needs to go the extra mile...

Revenue: 

Construction:

Other: We all know how rugby should be played. Strong powerful forwards bashing into the defense to create some midfield gap for the swift backs to exploit when the ball is released. One-two, pass-catch, try.
But then sometimes the playing field has a different agenda...

One-two. pass-catch, try

The state of the rugby field, grass, etc... would add to the experience of being a rugby manager
