Hmmmmm. I'd been thinking 1000 CP per player ... do we definitely want to
avoid this? On average, this would still come to at most 100 troops, assuming
you had all regular troopers. Throw in heroes, horses, catapults, ballistae,
siege towers, and each person would have much less than that. Is taht
acceptable, or do people definitely find that too high?

I guess I would subscribe to no champions per team - I'm sick of that lame-face
nitwit duck-walking chakram-tossing overcompensating butt-ugly she-wench.
Anything to keep her out of the game ...
Outvote me at will!

I'd say definitely ... maybe the only exception I can envision would be as an
illusionary spell, but perhaps with some limitations? Such as no duration is
allowed (so it would have to be cast each turn)? And if the unit then attacks,
the illusion is destoyed for the rest of the turn? Hey, that could be pretty
cool, actually ... it's expensive and costly to use, and goes away when one is
most vulnerable? I dunno, maybe that works. As a natural, ongoing effect ...
toss 'er out the the window :P

Both sound good to me ...
