I like this idea; I think it's the best proposal thus far.
Your other idea is good, too, but I still think casualties on elites
are too high. Sorry, but when a Titan gets assaulted by CC elites it
has to go down (unless geared for CC) with the elites taking
relatively few casualties. They're doing their job, and they're
supposed to be GOOD at it.
I'll repeat myself: I don't want 900 points of titan to be worth 900
points of long-range firepower *AND* 900 points of CC troops. No unit
in the game gets such a good deal; if you want to make NetEpic
dominated by titans, just rule they cost 1/3rd of their points an be
done with it.
