hi,
we have no problem at all in our gaming group with the battlegroup
rule.
you have a lot of firepower, no doubt, but you have to spend many
points nevertheless.
and when fighting with much terrain on the battlefield you can have
strategic problems with a "battlegroup-investment" in such a game
(LOS , etc.) i.e. you could regognise that you invested the wrong point
values into the wrong units...
i often play mobile armies with not many titans because my experience
is to win more battles with them (even against armies with
battlegroups in it)
on the other hand i hope that the battlegroup rule stays as i think it is
very usefull for larger games with many titans in it !
in generell we handle it in every game that balanced armies fight
against each other (we do not allow one side for example to have ten flyers while
the other only has one AA unit).
it's all a question of communication between the players and thousands of rulechanges
are not necessary in my opinion.
again : just my opinion...;)
