Thanks. The main goal in creating these themes is to make the roster-building a fun experience.

$110 Million – The 13th Warrior
Pick any of the ten digits and then make your team from each of the 13 years that end in that number from 1894-2023 (i.e., if you chose #6 you would be picking from 1896, 1906, 1916, 1926, 1936, 1946, 1956, 1966, 1976, 1986, 1996, 2006, and 2016). Further, you must select exactly one hitter and one pitcher from 12 of those years. That will leave one player (your Warrior) to be selected from the 13th year. Your Warrior must also be the most expensive player on your roster.

Seasons: 1894-2023
DH: Yes
Clones: No
Ballpark: Must be the home ballpark of your Warrior
Alignment: Random
Team Name: Please include the last digit of your season in your team name

What do we do if the ballpark of the 13th Warrior is not in the database? For instance, the 1890s Orioles?

Usually I would say the answer is use What-If Sports Park when this comes up in themes I've played. I'll let others weigh in on alternative ideas, though.

Whatif Sports Park has always been the answer to this type of question.

I agree, Whatif Sports Park is the answer to the question

For the 100m is it ok to have four players from the same team and season if two of them are in the boxes? It says someone in the boxes can’t be a teammate but I assume it’s okay to take, say, George Foster and Joe Morgan from the same season as long as you take two other guys from that Reds team

Yes, as long as the other players aren't Bench, Rose, or anyone else who is in any of the boxes. But yes you can use Foster and Morgan with other Reds teammates from the same season, if you choose.

For 70m, can our bonus players be combined seasons?

Good question.

Yes, free agents can be used combined seasons.

For the 100M, confirming that we are limited to the 1920-1980 seasons even when the player has seasons before or after.

Confirmed.

Question for 100M -
Can we play the players drafted from the boxes in alternate positions or do we need to play them in the position they were drafted?
Also, do we have to draft a season at that position? For instance Pete Rose is in an OF box. Do I need to a) draft a season Rose is eligible at OF and b) play him in the OF?

Another question/confirmation for 100M:

"Then use one teammate from each of your 12 players from the season you select for them."

I recognize that the teammate that I choose has to have been a teammate of my selected box player in the year that I'm using for my box player, but do I have to use that same season for my teammate? For example, let's say I choose 1927 Babe Ruth, and want to use Earle Combs as his teammate. In this case, would I have to specifically use the 1927 Earle Combs?

That's the way I'm reading it, but I'd just like to confirm.
