I am going to order FM23 on steam this year but wondered what are the lowest english leagues available as I know the xbox version is slimmed down and wanted to manage teams close to where I live etc.
Looking at either Isthmian League - South East Division or Vanarama National League South
FM has Vanarama National League South (VNS) out of the box. There are a few people that build English League databases that go down to tiers 10 and 13 that would have Isthmian League South East Division (Tier 8). I have played Didcot which is also a Tier 8 team in FM22. Great fun. Works well. You may have to wait until they complete developing the extra tiers because there tend to be quite a few patch changes in the first few months of the game that programmers need to update their add ons to keep them working.
I suggest you start with VNS and then try a Tier 8 save after Xmas.
The League Databases can be found on FM Scout under AddOns / Databases / League Updates
