Say I get a unit advantage at the beginning of the game then decide that instead of attacking, I just bleed out my opponent by letting the spawns time out while picking a few units off at a time. When I finally engage I have a big advantage.

That's an excellent point, and I think you're right. I hadn't thought of that.

Yeah, twenty-eight was only an example number to illustrate what I meant. Without testing, there's no way to find a "sweet spot" number for something like that. In any case, I don't really favor the wit-based model but the simpler "you get X number of spawns per spawn space, regardless of what unit types are spawned" model. Of course, given what conner34911 said above, I think I favor the game as it is now, anyway.
