Hi!

Some comments:

Why not the standard 2d6 and add the total CAF of all models involved for
the group CAF?

Just use 2d6 plus its reguular CAF

Instead of dividing just use the simple progession: score equal or greater
than the titans = one hit, double the titans score = two hits, triple the
titans score = three hits, etc. I'd rather keep everything to very simple
formulas.

I'd simlify this as as follows (its basically the same thing just clearer):

One hit saves on 6
Two hits saves on 5+
Three hits or more hits save on 4+

How would the numbers work doiing this way?

All said though its still a radical departure, although it does get results.
