Description:

You coach a rugby league club by a combination of e-mail (PBeM,
Play-By-e-Mail) and online play. You send your instructions (i.e. orders)
to a GM (Gamesmaster) at RLC (Rugby League Coach) and we process and send
back details of the consequences of your orders.

You pick the squad and chose the tactics for each match, wheel and deal on
the transfer markert, balance the clubs books and so on. What makes our
game different to other similar concepts is that each club in the
competion is coached by a different person. Each coach will probably be a
different age to you and from a different part of the country (or world!).
So you are testing your coaching ability against real opponents!

Your ambition can vary depending on the club you are coaching. Maybe just
avoiding relegation is a challenge, or possibly promotion or one of the
cups is your goal. Whatever club you coach always remember that someone
has to lose, it may well be you! To attempt to prevent this you may need
to improve your team via some astute moves in the transfer market. It is
not impossible (but very difficult) for a lowly team in National League 2
to be challenging for top honours after only a few seasons. Only the best
coaches can acheive this feat. There are many challenges to be found in
RLC, from steering the big guns to the title to prevent a small club from
being relegated.
