Eleven: Unexpected events

As a football manager, you'll encounter unforeseen events. This expansion introduces two new mechanics: Breaking News cards that trigger keywords on Player cards and the Reputation track, along with 14 new Board Meeting cards. During Matchday, read a Breaking News card with press coverage of your match to see if any Player keywords are mentioned. This can lead to unexpected game consequences, changing the match outcome! All 36 Breaking News cards have unique results, making each gameplay distinct and adding a great thematic touch. The 14 new Board Meeting cards enhance game replayability when added to the base game. New Breaking News and Board Meeting cards from this expansion affect your club's Reputation level, marked on the new Reputation track. Depending on your Reputation level, your club will get benefits or penalties in upcoming matches.

To use this football management expansion, start by adding the 14 new Board Meeting cards to your base game. During Matchday, pick up a Breaking News card and read the press coverage of your match. Check if any of your Players' keywords are mentioned. If so, be ready for unexpected consequences in the game. Remember, the outcome of each Breaking News card is unique. The new Reputation track is important too. Keep an eye on how new Breaking News and Board Meeting cards influence your club's Reputation level. A good Reputation can bring benefits in upcoming matches, while a bad one might result in penalties. When you're done playing, store the cards in a dry and safe place to keep them in good condition. Also, make sure to shuffle the cards well before each new game to ensure a fair and random experience.
