Really interested in the hidden VIP mechanic. Immediately makes me think of Stratego. Not sure how well hiding unit modifiers would work, just woried about the schoolyard "nuh uh, i'm invincible against lasers TOO." But I could see a version where the modifiers you've selected for your force are open info, but how many apply to each unit is based on unit rank, and unit rank is kept hidden. Also just the mechanics of how to hide / show information - might need some very purpose crafted minis.
