While we head towards brands ... we take a side turn towards a much needed gimmick match. The 'Add Hair' consequence makes the loser grow hair, right in front of your eyes! Add it in your games by adding a custom gimmick match (Manage > Company > Matches) and selecting 'Add Hair' as the consequence. The brands feature is almost complete and should go into testing in a few days.

Brands Update (JoW Paid) Create brands to split your roster. Book brand exclusive events, combined events and Brand vs Brand stories. Run brand drafts and shuffle your rosters every year with yearly drafts. How It Works Add/edit brands on the Brands page under Manage > Roster > Brands.
Talent brands can also be changed using the 'Change Brand' button under view roster.
Brands can be selected when adding a custom superstar/championship and when rebranding a championship/event.
Added/removed brands are shown under management activity.
Brand filters are shown while booking, in view roster, rankings and company stats.
You can add brands in the scenario editor. 'Exclusive Brand' selects for superstars/championships/events will be updated as you add/edit brands.

Custom Starting Company Create your own starting company in any scenario. Paid option available under New Game.

Add custom company details when starting a new game, including:
Size - affects REP and roster capacity (backyard, indie, national, global)
Finances - affects creative points (weak, average, strong, loaded)
Talent (generate or draft from all superstars)
Monthly Events (generate or add custom names/prestige)
Championships (generate or add custom names/prestige)
Name, owner name, style, weekly show name

Custom company will be the user's company and the main company will move to competitors.
Draft will keep everyone on their current rosters and allow only the user to draft from all competitors' main and training rosters and the indies.

Custom Starting Company (JoW Paid) Start with your own custom company in any scenario. Choose your company's size, finances and set events and championships, Draft your roster from the scenario's entire talent pool or generate it. How It Works The custom starting company option can be found under New Game.
The 'Generate' button auto fills all company data for you.
The 'Draft' option allows you to pick from talent belonging to other companies and the indies.
The 'Protect Company Talent' option while drafting makes some top talent unavailable to be drafted. Popularity, being hot, loyal/rebel traits and being retired affect who will be protected.
While drafting, you can see your roster capacity as well as which company a talent belongs to when selecting them.
The main company of the scenario moves to the competitors when starting with a custom company.
Teams are drafted if all members are drafted to your company.
First championship is given the Main Eventer rank, while others are given the Upper Midcard rank.
This feature is not available in stories and is planned to be added to local multiplayer later.

Talent Requests plans to breathe life into talent's personalities, add depth to your interactions with them and provide ideas and shape to your booking.
Talent (superstars and teams) can have requests, with a goal and a timeframe. A graphic will be shown of the talent along with dialog for the request. If the request is met, talent morale increases. If the timeframe ends and the request is not met, morale decreases, depending on traits and morale. The nature of the request will be affected by the talent's morale, their rank and traits.

Here are some ideas for talent requests: Have a match with x
Feud with x
Be in the main event
Win a title
Change presentation (alignment, gimmick)
Don't take a clean loss
Become a main eventer
Do not become a main eventer
Be traded
Move to other brand
Don't be booked on weekly shows
Be out of title picture
Team with x
Be in a big gimmick match
Change appearance (new hair, attire)

The next update planned for JOW
