Recently DA'd a scum because he wasn't winning and I was bored with him. Here's the replacement I got:

10-12-14-3-12-9-10

Oh well, back to the DA.

Has anybody noticed that newer managers always get awesome rollups back? There's a bunch of newer managers from my home town and they get 21/21 wit/will, 21/17/17 wit/will/def guys back all the time. One guy has a whole team of 21 Wits.

Yeah, that's been noticed from time to time. One of my friends swears that RSI keeps two stacks of rollups around, with all the crappy ones in the "experienced player" pile and the good ones in the "newbie" pile.

Out of all the crazy theories I've heard over the years, that one wouldn't surprise me if it were true.

They already have us hooked, they probably figure they need something to keep the newbies around.

Gotta give the newbies something to try and level the playing field. I used to think experienced managers got a lower shot at bonuses as well. I went 8 months and nearly 20 replacements without a single bonused warrior. I thought it was weird. Then I realized I was just temporarily cursed! The next 5-7 warriors all came back with multiple bonuses!

It could be true, but if it is, they sure switch your piles in no time at all. My second roll-up after returning I was able to eke out two 13, two 15 and one 17 wit. Did a little better on the replacements for the three that died early, sort of, 5, 15 and 17 but the 5 was playable without wit.
