The Challenge
The basic idea is that you manage both the San Marino club side, (who start the game in Siere D Girone D), and the San Marino National Team, using the players produced by an improved club academy to benefit the NT in a long-term save. If you are just interested in a challenge that will take you a few seasons then this ISN'T for you. It is likely to be measured in terms of decades rather than seasons because it is likely that you will be the only club producing players of a sufficient quality to impact on the NT as soon as your NT gains any real level of success.
The Club
San Marino Calcio, (nicknamed Titani in English translates to The Titans). The club was founded as Società Sportiva Serenissima in 1960 by the San Marino Football Federation, in order to have a team representing the Republic of San Marino in the Italian league.. They have never played higher than Lega Pro Girone B, (where they are now), and have stayed in the same division as last year due to re-shuffle. They play within the Italian structure, (the only San Marino club to do so), and they are also the only professional football club in San Marino.
The Challenge Rules:
- No Limits on how many leagues you can load.
- No FMRTE or Genie Scout whatsoever.
- Once you’ve been sacked by the Club, the Challenge is over and you have to start again.
- Don’t have to start immediately with NT you can wait for as long as you would like.
- You can add Edited in Leagues such as the Sammarinese League.
- FMC can be used in this but you have to mention that you are using it
.Thread Rules
Player Naming is allowed along with talk about Tactics but no talk on downloadable tactics. If you want to download someoen else's tactics, (sigh), fine, just don't talk about it in here please.
When joining the Challenge please post a photo of your Manager’s Profile.
Once you've done a season please can you post a short summary of your progress showing the key things with Screenshots(e.g. Squad Stats, League Table, Youth Intake etc.)
Setting Up
You can run as many leagues in as many nations as you want, but in order for San Marino to be active you need to load at least down to Lega Pro / Seconda Divisione (Add On Required).
After you have selected the Nations that you want to start the game with, press "Next - New Game Overview". From there click on the "Database Size" tab, and then select "Advanced" at the bottom of the sub-menu. It will then allow you to include some options that may assist you within your game.
*Note - You might have to wait until the league add on for the San Marino league and Serie D becomes available for FM17.

Well that's fine but really you shouldn't discourage other people from doing it.
I saw an excellent lower league Italian file last year, lot of work went into it too.

Also for Cymro am I the only idiot to try the challenge or has someone already done it? The challenge of only using players from your youth and not able to sign anyone? Or is it just able to sign people out on contract?
Cymro
You can sign whoever you want, but remember you need to supply the national team somehow.
Plenty of people have tried this challenge, not many have got the goal.

Challenge accepted. I am not going to sign anyone in my game then. Also I already done this challenge a couple years ago and totally dominated it about 25 years in. I won the world cup and the Champs league in the same year. Problem with NT is silly Italy coming in and taking all my good young players. I am sure they can just poach all the other Serie A teams players.
I do love this challenge though. Although I haven't seen any files that have updated the lower leagues in Italy. Or am I missing a file? I do like how the youth still produces good players now even if you don't have top facilities
