Manage both teams in a game?

It it possible to make on field decisions for both teams in a game? I've only figured out how to manage 1 team at a time while the other team is managed by the AI. Sometimes I disagree with how the AI manager is managing a game and want to override or make all decisions myself.

If I am not mistaken, I don't believe that is possible in a solo player league.  The only way I know of managing both teams would be if the assocation was set up as a Multiplayer league.

HangingSlider & Taz,

There's no way to manage both teams in a game. Even if you DID set the association up as multiplayer, you lose the ability to manage a game-- a byproduct of a multiplayer association. Effectively what you're trying to do is a Head-to-Head game, and PureSim does not currently support that. You can manage more than one TEAM during a season, that's not a problem, but as Taz said it can only be done with a Multiplayer setup. There is no way to manage more than one team in a GAME.

Sorry.

Thanks Taz, FS for the input.

My background in gaming are Strat, Apba, Pursue the Pennant, etc., and some of their computer implementations. So, the style of play where I call all the shots appeals to me sometimes.

HangingSlider,

Please don't get me wrong. Managing your games, to me at least, is the way to go. Don't let the inability to manage both teams simultaneously discourage you. You will not be disappointed managing each game. Trust me.

I was curious what might happen if you set 2 teams to "Human Owned", but the game only allows you to control the first one when you Manage a game.
