I feel like it’d be better if it randomly but temporarily disabled a stratagem every now and then rather than just flat being one less you could bring. It’s one of those things that seems like an interesting extra challenge but can just end up making things less fun. Stratagems are one of the coolest parts of the game!
Disabling a random stratagem for a period of time would be a great rework. Alternatively, an operation modifier that gives a chance of swapping out your stratagem for a random one on throw could bring some fun chaos.
That could really screw you over though if you only brought one way to deal with heavies. I think something cool would be to tell you ahead of time that you’re going to get a random support weapon / orbital / Eagle / sentry or whatever. Then you would at least know “hey, I’m gonna have a random support weapon so I should probably bring a auto-cannon turret or something”
