What about giving the home team a bonus to map roll, or some kind of bonus, if their map matches up thematically? From a story perspective, the team would know the turf better than someone from another Earth or universe (or even the same Earth), so they'd have a better chance of survival if they fought there.
F'example, if I chose the Avengers and picked Avengers Island or Avengers Tower, I get a bonus. Or Tanis's Legion of Super Heroes goes for Legion Plaza, they get a bonus.
It'd encourage some extra research, and give visiting teams something to worry about.
It's a nice thought, but where would a team like Wonders of the World get their bonus?
Besides, home team already is chocked full of advantage.

Here's my suggestion, assuming a regular season of 8 games:
After the draft is done, everyone chooses 4 different maps and 4 different BFCs. These choices are public and listed on the team rosters. Also, the map and BFC choices should be made before the regular season schedule is determined.
For each game, if you're home team, you choose a map, and if you're away team, you pick a BFC. Map and BFC choices are sent in with teams, i.e., before you see your opponent's team. Each map and BFC can be played only once by a player during the regular season.
For the playoffs, those who qualify also make a new set of map and BFC choices. The Championship game's map is randomly determined with no BFC.

That's a cool idea, I'd want some maps & BFC excluded though.
I am 90% not in for next season. Just can't see myself having the brain space to commit for a year.
The "Tackle Box" idea is basically just adding maps and BFCs to the draft. Everyone gets a set for free (handled at the same time as Core drafts), Maps would be unique but BFCs not. You could draft extras at an RP price point (idk, 50?) to a limit (maybe 4?).
That would be my proposal.

Please, read all of the information. This is just a preliminary vote to decide what needs to be changed. How we change them will happen in future poll(s).
If someone could sticky the thread while there at it, that would be great.
Make sure you have read the latest rulebook and PAC. Lots have changed recently. Read my post earlier to see what the rules will likely be for the league next season (only a few things have changed), and vote in the poll.
Also, you, and any one else needing a new team for next season, should send me a d1000 core roll.
