The point of 'blocking' is to get people to use what has been chosen. A lot of us need a bit of direction and it's MORE fun to see what people can do with a specific set of tools. That's why when Shane wrote it all up, the idea was, "What can Ender, Outrider, Urban Sabateur, etc do with Major Bludd?" And let's face it, some figures from teh ARAH are better than the 25A and vice versa. We just want to showcase what we can do.

The 'team' concept is more ARAH vs 25A with Bastard Era (JvC-DTC) thrown in the middle.

IF things were 'free', then we'd go back to focusing Weekend Warriors to just characters.
