Tomi, I was thinking of a much simpler rule - for example, 6 max / 750 would mean that you can only select 6 units that cost 750 denarii or more. That could mean either 6 Urbans, or 6 Praetorian cav, or 3 urbs + 3 praet cav etc.
The remaining 14 units in the army would consist of units that cost less than 750 denarii. For example, if the player uses his limit for 6 urbies, he would have to select Roman cavalry instead of Legionary cav or praetorian cav - they both cost over 750.
In effect, it would define a total limit for elite units, but not restrict unit choice in any other way. 750 is a good place to start - it would put a limit on the elite inf and cav, but not limit "mainstay" units such as Legionary Cohorts, Chosen Swordsmen, most phalanxes etc...
Of course there are still problems with this rule - Egypt would still need banning.
Britons could still spam with chariots etc...
