The fact that you were able to go with 2 offense brigades (plus a few splash) and 1 defense brigade is makes that deck great. If TexP allows for more decks like these to be possible, I may actually start playing booster draft more frequently.  :)

Oh yes, we had 81 cards to build with (I had 82, due to a random Generous Widow in my RoA pack) and none of us were drafting the same brigades. So it allowed for every deck at the table to have 1 or 2 main offensive with a nice 1 or 2 main defense.

What surprised me is the amount of battle winners everyone had (due to TexP having so many rares) and myself not having too many, and still being able to win most battles with numbers.

Best part of drafting was the person on my left passing a Wall of Protection, then it got passed again, then it got passed again, then I got it.  :P
