I think the challenge / army competitiveness discussion is moving towards some consensus around four options:

1) Continue current method. Challenger constructs entire challenge, including both armies -- limited to historic enemies.

2) Pre-Challenge for both armies to play. Challenger announces army pair (historic only) on the forum and opponent chooses which army to play. Opponent constructs the challenge accordingly.

3) Pre-Challenge for one army to play - historic enemies only. Challenger announces the army he wishes to run and opponent chooses which army to play from historic enemy armies only. Opponent constructs the challenge accordingly.

4) Pre-Challenge for one army to play - open to any enemies. Challenger announces the army he wishes to run and opponent chooses which army to play with from any opponents available with the filter turn off. Only disallowed armies are same nationality (no civil wars). Opponent constructs the challenge accordingly.

I'm going to announce this on the current Caracole thread for voting/comment.
