No need to apologize, dude. Internet discussions often suffer from a lack if intonation/emotion/ability to see a person that lends to things sounding hostile when no one really intends to be so.

Good discussion, game on!

Not sure I have much more add, honestly. I've said my piece and now I'll just mull around or find something better to do.

(Time will shift them in sooner or later, but a discussion for a star wars board.)

I rather like the CCG design of having named characters and then generic followers. Keep in mind that I never played the CCG, and love the LCG - I just enjoy the concept of having a unique character followed by a unit of soldiers. I related more with a named character honestly, though I understand many people feel the opposite. I would, however, make all of them unique -- as in, no more than 1 on the board at a time.
