Yes, I don't want it. And it's not only my opinion.
I already explained my reasons and the only thing I can add is that it is quite another game - not the one many people are used to. To play a new game successfully you need to know its features. Maybe, I would agree to play CBM if it was a usual game, but it's my first team game and I think that having a partner (and possibly unfamiliar race) obviously requires much planning and thinking. And I really would not want to study CBM in the process.

I'll not be playing, so this is a neutral opinion. I'd say the Jot/Pan team, and especially the Marignon/Caelum teams are too tough and you might want to shuffle the lineup a bit.

I wouldn't say Jotuns are too powerful in MA and Pangaea needs much micro to be played well, but as for Caelum-Marignon, maybe it's worth switching Caelum and Machaka?

Jotun is quite average in MA imo

caelum - marignon i considered weak... pythium - ulm however is strong

I think that Caelum-Bandar and Machaka-Marignon will be better.
As for Pythium-Ulm... Yes, this pair has nice potential but there should be strong and weak pairs. It's almost inevitable, I think.

of course its inevitable in such a complex game

but considering that there is still diplomacy and a bit luck, i think its quite balanced
