It sounds interesting to me. The only thing I would cut is the vice captain. Imo it could be only an offensive captain and a defensive captain. The captain effect applying only in the plays he is on the field.

Personally I would just like to name captains just for that little extra depth of the game, doesn’t really need to be complicated with buffs/penalties imo.

Yes I like this idea of captains, including special team captains if we wanted to elect them too, but we would have to ensure the special team captain was on the field most of the special team plays, so he must be elected as first string.

I too would just like it for the fluff if not for gameplay.

Yeah you're right, many ST captains are kickers or punters but most NFL teams do designate them.

But anyway, I am at the very least only interested in the fluff. It could be the O and D captains have the influence you mention and the ST captain be for fluff reasons. I'm happy either way.

Then hopefully the can have the captain badges on their player page somewhere. That would be cool.

The captain badge is cool!!! Adding a star for each season as captain of the team.

I was thinking here... Is it possible to make the captain influence team morale during training updates?

For example, if he gets injured the morale of the players decrease a little bit. If he is the MVP of the game the morale goes up. Something in this way, I do not know...

imo no need for such a drawer thinking approach.

Either you have player(s) in your team that lead by example or you dont. No need to put a stamp on it.


As an honor for special players ok. But with the same effect as writing a team's press release.

btw: You can choose such players to influence your game already by making them first stringers of their position. Honor enough imo.


If any, go for it and make the Trait "Natural Leader" available for all positions and ask to add effect for gaining Moral on weekly updates faster for his positional group, or in case for QBs: gaining moral for whole offense.


good luck
