It sounds interesting, but with 4 troops and 2 cavs you can make units for everything:

footman with xbow for the damage
footman with towershield to eat enemy bolts/arrows
footman with maxed prot/enc to fight in line
+1 footman for special purposes

some hard hitting knights to do max damage
some def maxed cavalery to tire out enemy troops

I would limit the choice of units, so that not everyone has everything.

This idea sounds kinda interesting, but not interesting enough as it is.

And btw. Friday is a bad time for blitzes as its weekend
