LRB5 states
3. Any gold left in petty cash is transferred back to treasury
and then each coach must now pay for spiralling expenses
(as described later) through gold in treasury.

LRB6 states
3. Any gold left in petty cash is transferred back to treasury
and then each coach must now pay for spiralling expenses
(as described later) through gold in treasury. Note: at this
point you will not yet have updated your team value from the
value calculated after step 2 of the Pre-Match Sequence
(page 28).

So does LRB5 base the expense on post match or is it pre match and LRB6 just clarifies this?

Thanks Galak. I asked Mobo and he said they did their's post match and then we were reading the rules and just weren't sure.

Which is why we put in the clarification. A LOT of coaches were taking out their dead and MNG players from the team value then adding in new skills and then doing Spiralling Expenses. So we needed to clarify that step to make it more clear that the stuff that happened during the match doesn't effect Sprialling Expenses.

In effect what Sprialling Expenses is meant to simulate is the amount of cash that was guaranteed before the game to the team to be paid from the winnings (or the owner's pocket) for playing that match. (Dead players cut are assumed to be paid to the widow .. kids ... illegitaments ... hot groupies)

I actually had it right the whole time for OBBLM and then had 3 dead Norse and was like wait I think I got it wrong. Everyone I asked then agreed that I should use post TV for inducements. Then ... yada yada yada.

I changed it back in OBBLM.
