I like what the GOMHL did with equipment a few seasons ago.

How would we simplify it?

Equipment's a bit of a cunt but I'm just not sure how we could make it easier to deal with.  Need with more brain cells than myself to knock it down.

@.bojo would probably be better at explaining it.

Basically you had different equipment packages and then different tiers ... so the "Ned Sommers Package" was +PH and +SK, and Tier I/II/III was +1/+3/+/5 to each of those skills, respectively.

i don't mind equipment, but if we're being really nickpicky the idea that you buy new equipment to make your self better each season that stacks each season seems silly. I feel like it should be called something else, like intense offseason training. and you shouldn't be able to bank those points imo. Basically pay a bunch of money to focus on certain attributes (with a limit per att of course).

Wait, isn't that what we have right now?

Yeah, seems nitpicky to change the name.  I don't care about the banking thing, but it's nice to give those who have the money an extra chance to fight regression.  That being said, I have a completely separate argument about how it's too easy to buy equipment for everyone nowadays instead of it being reserved for the elite who've built up a nest egg.  But that's another argument for another day.

if we combine our ideas together, we only allow equipment purchases the first (let's just say for example) 4 seasons. too early to bank solving my issue, preventing people from loading up on teeps solving yours

Yes, but the limit was one package per season. It was just a little cleaner and, like Bojo said, from a syntactic standpoint you weren't getting a new stick that was making you that much better but an additional training camp which sits better with me.

Also since you had the one package per season it's with a purpose for 10 TPE, not just buying everything and redistrbuting 28 TPE. Idk, just seems clean!

Hm true.  I don't mind the more TPE of 28 (lol obviously) but having a purpose is good.  Again, not sure if this is a change that we really need to make.  Potentially just changing something for the sake of changing something.
