How to raise finances in EHM:EA?

Post by MisterPenguin »

I always find myself losing money for my team, and I can't seem to find where you can raise/lower ticket prices, like in EHM 07. If it was removed, is there any other way to raise team finances?

The only way you can control your finances is to reduce the amount you're paying to players and staff (i.e. by offering lower contracts or by releasing players/staff).

This was never possible in EHM 2007.

I have moved this thread to the correct forum. Please see this guidance on where different topics belong: http://www.ehmtheblueline.com/forums/vi ... =3&t=14073

I thought in 07 if you made playoffs you increased revenue and thus ended up with more money for the budget. Could be wrong though.

As archibalduk and umwoz said before, cheaper players/staff and home playoff appearances seem to be the only concrete way to increase revenue. After purchasing EHM: EA, my first season was as the GM of the Nashville Predators, who have one of the lowest total player salaries(around 55mil) in the NHL, and I was miraculously able to lead them to the Stanley Cup Finals(swept by Tampa Bay :/). After all the revenue from playoff ticket sales, I was still in the green by just over 12mil at the end of the fiscal year. The chairman split half of that between team shareholders in the offseason, then with money from the NHL TV deal and season ticket sales I was sitting at 41mil going into the next pre-season.
