The bonuses for starting the season as a new team will be as follows.
- Teams will start with a 5 fan factor for free. This is to represent the upsurge of new fans in your home city (castle, dungeon, etc...). Of course, depending on how you do this will be subject to the rules for rolling fan factor changes at the end of the game.
- Teams will start with an additional 50,000 gold crowns, as interested parties scramble to get a piece of the new franchise.
- Coaches will have access to the draft.
