Yes that sounds good. It could be a nice touch to have a variety of special Promotions good against certain Unitclasses or Unitcombats, with an element of rock-paper-scissors mechanic where one super-unit isn't good against all others, but instead some types are good against other types. (ie you'd want to gradually train a good variety of combined forces to handle various foes in an Invasion; eg some foot soldiers with Pike Square Formation or Caltrops to resist Cavalry charges, maybe some shield units with Testudo that are especially good against Archers, infantry with Boiling Oil to resist a siege or Escalade to attack enemy fortifications, etc etc. The REF could have a variety of different buff troop types and ships where you'd need to have developed the right combos of Techs and Promos to counter them all properly.
