The big problem is the TIME needed to switch Command Units given say 30 "bots"
you have to
1 time out on the current commander (lets say several seconds)
2 somehow given 29 "bots" sort out who will be the best new Commander
3 setup the needed links
all of this while doing what the Flock is supposed to be doing
i could see a guy with a shotgun downing the Command Unit(s) faster than they can switch over.
(of course i can also see the bots deciding at about CU #14 to "frack this Mission is FUBAR RTB now!")
