    I think it was said, in one of Orizio's posts, that its at the managers discretion which intensity to choose...i could be wrong though!

    People can choose whatever intensity they like, you can of course agree to an informal WNWIM agreement prior to the game like myself and John have done. ;)

    How can you tell how your opponent has chosen to play? Can you see it once the line-ups are fixed?

    Thanks jp... can you see it somewhere after the match? I've played LTNT 3 times in total and everytime I have I've been slaughtered so I wondered whether my guys weren't used to it or whether the opposition were playing LTNT too.

    The best way to tell is to have a look at the energy levels of the opposition players after the game.

    If they are really tired/knackered/dead they used LTNT.

    If they are supercharged or thereabouts, they used WNWIM.

    Somewhere in between these two and they more than likely used normal.


    This of course assumes that they started with a perfect energy level. (always check the energy levels of your opposition before the game aswell)

    You have to check their energy before and after to know, assumming they had perfect and allowing for differing stamina levels with individual players, they would be around weary/fit/sprightly after an LTNT, energised/pumped after normally and usually perfect after WNWIM.

    You only get levels that low if you play LTNT in back to back games.
