Hidden deployment

Hi!

Going over some old rulebooks I revisited an old idea on how to approach
a hidden inital deployment for NetEpic games.

Normally you'd use some barrier like boxes or even something as
elaborate as a curtain so that the players can see each others deployment.

Niether is very easy or efficient.

For those who are familar with Excelsior Entertainments Chronopia or
Ultimate Warzone skirmish games they came up with a novel and simple
solution - deployment cards.

The deployment card is simply put a card that presents the unit in
question and is placed face down one at a time alternating with your
opponent until all cards are placed. Once its done you reveal them and
place the model. Its a quick, efficient way of getting a hidden
deployment without all the hassle.

Would people be interested in such a set of cards to be developed for
NetEpic?
