I like the idea, but maybe we should only restrict them from buying players with the same nationality as their main team? So fot me I could buy every nationality except for dutch ones.
If not it would be a little bit to hard maybe and you would be at a to big of a disadvantage if you are trying to win.

Well ... it would be hard to compete at first if you only can buy players from your own "Nations of..." But: I'm pretty sure this will change quickly as players from these countries will now receive training, because they will be valuable on the Transfer Market. And because (at first) those teams will be forced to train young players. (Which would be one of the main aspects for me as training is one of the most fun parts of this game - for me at least). And in a couple of seasons, this would also help the national teams of those micro nations as there would be more players to choose from. Because those teams would draft players from "Nations of ..." and those players would be trained.

For now, it was a good change with the double citizenship in Utopia, but the solution with those 3rd teams in a different country (or, I'd rather like to transfer my utopian team to "Nations of..." instead of competing in Utopia, but I guess that would be hard to implement/ change)... but the option should exist that you don't need a utopian second team in order to purchase a 3rd team in a different (micronation) country ...

I see what you are saying. However I think that when you give a lot of new teams only the opportunity to buy/train players from the nations off that there is a chance that all of a sudden those national teams are the strongest or close to the strongest which in my opinion pushes it to far.

In my opinion, the National Teams of bigger countries with a lot of users will still be able to compete. I for one would still train NT players for the german NT with my "first team" and would continue to train players for the korean NT (like I am already doing in Utopia). And I guess a lot of managers would do it like that. The only thing that would be easier for me would be that I might draft myself a korean player with high potential instead of trying to get my hands on one drafted by another.

To me it seems like a huge disadvantage in a competition (or advantage for "normal" opponents) and thus unreal to implement since all teams in the same league should have the same opportunities.

I can imagine such teams in a separate competition with same conditions for all teams there. But it is against the original suggestion.

That's a valid point. Another solution would be that all BB teams would get limited to (let's say 2-3) players from another country. But that wouldn't really solve the problem of farm teams as 2-3 players would be enough to have a farm I guess. So ... a lot of things to think about. Or maybe: that it is necessary that at least one player of the teams "home country" will have to receive 48 (or lets say 45) Minutes of training each season. Just a couple of thoughts ... not a concept yet.

Anyway I think the minimal restrictio "prevent second team to purchase players from the nationality of the main team" should be applied. It's not a big one, it's not very different that a player from the utopian team can't be purchased by the main team and vice-versa.

I guess that sounds like a good compromise to me. One could still buy (in my case: german) players from the home country with the utopian team ...
