After playing extensively in 1v1, I think that lowering the starting troop counts would do a lot of good in evening the playing field. As the first mover, I am often able to take 1, 2 or even 3 bonuses on the first move, in addition to depriving my opponent of up to 25% of his starting troops. That is a massive advantage and pretty much means game over, outside of some very lopsided dice from there on out.
Less troops at the beginning means less opportunity to "dig in" on the first turn, and can prolong the game, which brings more maneuvering and card play into it.
