Stadium & facilities
Your stadium is both living room and revenue source. With smart expansion, well-kept facilities and happy fans it becomes a fortress with a full till.
Stadium blocks
Your stadium consists of individually expandable and renovatable blocks across several rings. Only blocks in the innermost ring can be used as standing areas. Expansion has limits:
- Ring 2 can only be expanded from a capacity of 24,000 seats.
- Ring 3 from 48,000 seats.
Boxes hold 10 seats each and must always be rented in full, regardless of attendance.
Facilities
Besides the stadium, your club grounds are crucial (e.g. sausage/drink/fan-shop stands, rehab clinic, training pitches, youth academy & youth pitches). Buildings wear out over time and need renovating.
If a building decays to 0%, the current level is demolished and must be rebuilt. Renovating is always cheaper than rebuilding – so maintain in time.
Fans
Your fans are the be-all and end-all of financial success:
- Hardcore fans prefer standing areas and create the atmosphere.
- Casuals mainly take seats.
- Business fans love boxes and spend the most.
The higher the fan count and atmosphere, the more spectators come – and the more they buy at your stands.
Tickets
You set individual prices per seat type (standing usually cheaper; the box price is per full box). The utilisation display helps with fine-tuning: pricier tickets = fewer spectators, but possibly more income. Finding the sweet spot pays off.
Happy fans + full stands + good prices = full till. Expand rings in the right order and maintain the facilities instead of letting them decay.
