The Basics of ESMS

Part 1

ESMS is what is used in EFA for simulating the matches. Every club in EFA has a roster file for the senior team.

Below is a sample of what’s in a roster file. This part just covers the player skills. Player stats are things that are awarded during the game, such as amount of games played, goals scored etc.

What each part of the roster means is described below.

Name	*Age*	*Nat*	St	Tk	Ps	Sh	Ag	*KAb*	*TAb*	*PAb*	*SAb*
G_Browny	28	ger	14	1	1	1	39	660	300	300	300

Tk	Tackling- the tackling skill of the player
Ps	Passing- the passing skill of the player
