At any time during Promotion Wars you may send a number of your roster away to a 'training camp' or 'development territory' (i'm not fussed on which you prefer to call it). Similar to the concept of OVW, the talents sent to a 'camp' will work matches with each other away from TV with the aim of sharpening their skills. You can send any number of talents to the se camps at any time and the matches they have their will be picked at random. It is a good idea to assign at least one guy with the 'Trainer' attribute to these camps, as wrokers will not learn anything from each other, unless the guy they are working is a 'Trainer'. The quality of training they receive will of course, depend a lot on who the trainer is. i.e. if you want someone to learn some death defying, high-flying moves, then The Iron Sheik probably isn't going to be able to teach them any...
A training camp is not the only way for your talents to learn new skills, working a TV match of your choosing against a 'trainer' will have the same effect. Workers can only gain overness from being on your main roster, they will not become more over as the result of a training camp.
One last thing, they say you can't teach an old dog new tricks, this is true of wrestlers too. If you're expecting Hulk Hogan to learn new skills from one of your training camps, it's highly unlikely that he will...

Hi Figo, A trainer can either be on the full roster or assigned to a training camp, but not both. If he's on the full roster, then wrestlers who wrestle with or against him on TV, will likely learn from him. he rate at which a wrestler will learn froma trainer will depend on how many guys are in the match. (for example, Keven Martel is booked in a singles match with Abdullah the butcher, he would learn brawling skills from Abdullah three times as fast than he would if he was booked in a Tag team match with him.
If he's in the training camp, then all other wrestlers in the training camp will learn from him. The rate at which wrestlers will learn from a trainer in a training camp will depend on the ratio of trainers to wresters.
Hope that made sense.

Congy, Can the guys who have Training ability, but wrestle week in week out in our shows, still train the guys in our camps? Or is it just the Trainers who we aren't planning on using on our shows that can be at the camps to train?
Okey Dokey Cheers

Wardy, if you could wait until the draft is complete, otherwise I'll become innundated with people going to trainign camps and not have time to get the remaining rounds up.

Graduates from your Wrestling academy will appear randomly. If a wwrestlers crops up in real life who definetly isn't in any of the rounds, then e-mail me and I'll see about making him one of your graduates.

I'd say it's more about a level of experience rather than an age...for example, Rico is still learning in his 40s, due to his late start...but you'd struggle to teach Regal anything new and he's not reached 40 yet...
As a rough guide though...I'd expect most wrestlers to take much longer to learn anything new once they hit 30 and be impossible to teach anything new in their 40s.
