Henry,
I'll be sure to post the gory details.
There were two National Abilities that didn't really work out. Avalon, which was pretty much the Lucky Talent so why reinvent the wheel. And I expect there may be some redundancy with these. The other was Ussura which allowed more than the normal number of brutes in a squad. I played around with it and the math just kept getting messier, especially since the Rule of Tens don't apply to minions. So I figured that one just needed to be left alone.
Since most of the opponents witch hunters face will probably be minions of one stripe or another, I like the idea of having a focused catalog of minion talents that let them do cool things and die instead of padding them with RP filler that isn't really important to their purpose. So the more coverage of minions in GToA the better, IMNSHO.
