TEAM FORMATIONS
Each offensive play in Football Mogul uses one of the 22 available offensive formations. Defensive plays have 17 different available formations. Each formation requires a different set of players,
often requiring that the computer go to the team's bench to find
the players that it needs. It is for this reason that all Football
Mogul teams need to have depth at all positions. For more information
on the recommended depth at each position, see the help on Offense and Defense.
Filling
In The Formations
In Football Mogul, the
order of players on your bench is only important in relation
to other players of the same position. When the computer runs
a play, it picks the first uninjured players listed at each position.

Football Mogul
will search your bench for the first uninjured players at each needed
position (e.g. QB, TE, etc.). If you wish to use a player at a position
other than the one listed, you will need to change
the player's official position.
The number of players
used for each formation are as follows:

QB |
