no, no please
I like a lot to have a lot of detail, I think I have every type of support/special card a marine and IG army could have (and they are a quite a few)
What I said is to be very carefull with this kind of rules, I have in mind VDR ones for WH40K. Too much customisation (and not detail) can be potentially very cheese ;-)
