In addition to the manual, a 350+ page game guide is available for download at the OOTPB 2006 web site. Those not familiar with the Football Manager series and how the interface uses filters to ease information display will have a hard time getting comfortable with OOTPB 2006. It’s harder to do some things (like the initial draft) but easier to do other things (like the information shown during year long sims).

Me, I’m still worried about some of the sim results. I also have no clue about park or weather effects in the new version. We may have to modify the default settings to get results consistent with OOTP 6.5 leagues.
