Up to a new season in Div II.1.

Last season was a mysterious one.
From the beginning I expected three favorites to fight it out for the title.
In the end things turned out a bit strange for two of those favorites.
Palafolls Almogavers was the best team in the group and did go to TD, but Palma Pirates and Drusselstein Lawn Gnomes left the other way out and are now in D III.
Hope to see tomsen and SrednaD back in D II very soon - and all the best for sirMark in TD.

Those teams and our bot from last season have been replaced with UL Vikings coming down from TD, and Detroit Robocops, LA DOUGINETTE and Hossegor X-Wing Starfighters from Div III.

Looking at these teams and knowing I have a 50-50 score against Hossegor in III 3 and Robocops have knocked me out of the cup the two times we have met, it seems we have a lot of 'interesting' matches in front of us.

I've picked up the salaries from each team, and alphabetic it looks like this - number of players in ().

Bomb's 1860 Artillery
$ 1,306,951 (39)

Detroit Robocops
$ 1,284,964 (54)

Fionia Swans
$ 1,137,442 (53)

Harwood Titans
$ 890,042 (53)

Hossegor X-Wing Starfighters
$ 1,079,229 (34)

LA DOUGINETTE
$ 713.859 (40)

Red&White Flying Penguins
$ 1,022,019 (41)

Sepos Diamonds
$ 1,367,974 (26)

Strategical Greenlights
$ 1,007,850 (40)

UL Vikings
$ 1,045,354 (41)

I have to be honest and admit that I'd forgotten the season starts tomorrow and hadn't set any tactics, so thanks for the reminder!

Well done ledilot. Good win. I was hoping to put up a better fight. I'm not too optimistic for this season. I've had to sell a lot of my starters to keep the team afloat.

Narrow opening loss for me; hopefully some of them go my way...! Almost identical stats across the board but the TDs landed shmert's way... hahahaha?

Second round saturday:

Harwood Titans vs. Hossegor X-Wing Starfighters
Does Starfighters get their first in DII?
Strategical Greenlights vs. Fionia Swans
Greenlghts won same match last season.
Sepos Diamonds vs. Detroit Robocops
Diamonds is the team to beat this season.
UL Vikings vs. Red&White Flying Penguins
Both need a win.
1860 Bombs vs. LA DOUGINETT
Both won first match.
