ManillaToad Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Dunno if you've answered this in the thread or on your website but how is team history handled when it comes to relocations? Do the original Express records belong to the Knights or the new LA franchise? Do the Texas Outlaws recognize both the Oklahoma and San Antonio records as their own?

I have not specifically said this, but based on the way the game works, the Texas Outlaws do maintain the 1 year of Oklahoma Outlaw records. The St. Louis Knights retain the Express records and the new Express team starts from scratch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideRight Posted November 15, 2021 Author Share Posted November 15, 2021 Hi all, After much work prepping for the 1995 expansion and getting the season kicked off, I had some time this weekend to finally work on my "mannequin" templates. I basically used photos from recent uniform debuts to create two uniform displays using mannequin figures so that we could get a 3/4ths look of the uniforms on "standard" players. Once I had the template done (Corel Draw format) I decided to start at the last team alphabetically and work my way through the 24 clubs in the 1995 season. So, Washington is up first, with Texas next. Let me know what you think of this template. I still plan to use the "flat" template to introduce new designs, but will utilize this one or something like it as well to give a sense of what the uniforms look like on players. I believe if you click on the uni's you can go to the Imgur site and see a full sized (appx. 1000x1200 pixels) image. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all love this league so much, it wasn’t going to get by us. You do great work man, and this new mannequin template is pretty sweet. 1 Quote THE Xtreme Fantasy Football League Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavybass Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I can solve the issue.... Texas wore green helmets but then some time later changed to blue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideRight Posted November 16, 2021 Author Share Posted November 16, 2021 Ok, here we go. Texas with their actual green helmets, though now I am thinking maybe the Outlaws need an alt uniform with the colors switched. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raz Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Honestly don't mind the blue helmets. Maybe if/when they redesign the logo? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideRight Posted November 16, 2021 Author Share Posted November 16, 2021 Two more for today. Tampa Bay and the expansion Seattle Dragons. 4 down, 20 to go. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BengalErnst Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Those white dragons uniforms are my favorite in the league up to this point. Beauty 1 Quote THE Xtreme Fantasy Football League Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideRight Posted November 16, 2021 Author Share Posted November 16, 2021 And one I cranked out this morning before work. Portland and those funky electric lime jerseys. I realize I skipped St. Louis. Forgot to add it to Imgur so I could link. After work I will post the Knights, then Maulers and Stars next. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideRight Posted November 16, 2021 Author Share Posted November 16, 2021 And here are the St. Louis Knights. I am not loving this look, so expect them to get a new identity/look for either 1996 or 1997. Sure, it is basically the WLAF NY/NJ Knights in purple, but the more I look at it the more I think they need to go in a slightly different direction. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo_prankster Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I think now would be a good time to change from the chess piece to the Claymores' sword logo. 2 Quote The Fictional Story of Austus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raz Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I think the issue with STL is all the damn stripes. I know that was an early '90s thing that I hated then and I still hate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManillaToad Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 STL looks fantastic imo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
