<p>Basically how can make stars with no stars in the game?</p><p> </p><p>

Okay, I'm using a RW Mod I get an email after every show saying "Lack of Big Names"</p><p>

It says "You have a problem in that the fans expect a company of your size to featureat least three big names (Workers with an Average Overness of at least 77% across the Company's Home Area) and you simply do have enough of them. If you want to compete at this level, you need to either hire some stars or create some of your own."</p><p>

How can I make the stars I have higher when they are basically the top in the game?</p>

looking for a product to use in a new game that is a mix of NJPW, Lucha libre, and ROH. I want Wrestling to be as important as how over someone is, and I don't want to run too many angles most of my storylines will be told in the ring and some interviews. going to put almost everyone in stables and those where my storylines and feuds will come from.

You have to create your own stars. It will take time. Through angles and matches. That or start with a smaller company. Until you manage to get a few guys that over, you have to take the hit and run with it, that is if you want to keep playing with that company.

What's the longest a touring company can run without a break between tours?

 

Also, does a company running a touring schedule (say 1 weekly show + 1 monthly event) gain overness at the same rate a company running a normal schedule would if they ran the same schedule?

 

Will a touring company lose lose overness in months that they don't run?

He may get dinged for overexposure (best to try this with a main eventer!) but with multiple wins he should gain a lot of overness over the course of a show. He can then be used to elevate others in angles and matches, and you always have the option of repeating the process to make another star.</p><p> </p><p> I know someone did this a while back as an experiment and took Daniel Bryan from the undercard to 100 overness in one show. I think this was pre-2016 but the mechanics haven't changed that much - if you have a decent, menacing worker with high star quality, just feed them a series of squashable opponents/feature them in menace-based angles and watch them soar.</p><p> </p><p> Doing it quickly enough to get enough guys over before you drop to Cult can be an issue - as you've found! In that situation, a spot of panic booking is forgivable; You make a new star and turn your company's fortunes around, which will more than outweigh any negatives.</p>

As for pop losses over time, I don't think it's any different because of your schedule.</p><p> </p><p> Mainly playing BCG here and those PPA contracts can bleed a touring company dry if you're careless. The only cases a touring schedule has worked for me is either once you have Written deals (so tour shows are sort of you booking a Regular company's house shows) or at the early stages of a RtG company where I can't afford to hold a show each month, thus I'll happily take the slashed costs during off months.</p>

I was indeed. Thanks for the assist!

 

It's still proportionally way too few but I don't want to be missing anyone when I update things.

 

You're welcome. The "create an mdb file" feature comes in very handy sometimes.

And yeah, I agree about the second part.

This is not true in 2016, by the way. Pre- and post-show segments have no impact on crowd management/perfect show theory, per the player's handbook.

Nice. That is good to know. So the fact he was having is jobbers on pre-shows is not to blame for his low grades. If he stopped using them and the show grades increased, it is just a coincidence.

I am currently using a real world mod and I have new workers set to debut in 2017 other than the workers that are preset to debut in the database and I am thinking it’s pretty useless to have or set up a dojo until that year when the new new workers will be created am I correct in thinking that
