Warrior General Games

Hey guys, just created a DE and signed in the D-Leagues. I have been here since early season 1, have a Lvl 25 CB and a pretty good grasp on teh game. Eventually, I am making this player into a 3-4 blitzing ROLB for my GM'd team, but will start out at 4-3 DE. Feel free to check out my build and give suggestions. I plan on getting Agility and Strength to the soft-cap ASAP, while training Speed.

wouldn't you lose points when you switch him to ROLB since he is a DE?

Bort has said that the penalty from switching a 4-3 DE to 3-4 OLB is very small. Just like real life, they are basically interchangeable.

I was going to do that as well, would be happy if you gave me some tips to build my DE/OLB, since I'm pretty new to the game

Do you happen to recall where it was that he said this? I'd be really interested in checking that out.

Not positive, but I think it was in the original (and long) Defensive AI Interface thread.

EDIT: Just found it on Page 8:

Bort one last question...

Now we have the 3-4, will the penalty for playing a DE at OLB be less?


The penalty for DE's playing OLB is already very low.

And by the way, I am currently playing 4-3 DE for a gutted team. Got my first sack yesterday at Lvl 3 vs a Lvl 20 LT
