Give players a free 10-slot Bench section in the Roster.

Characters in the Bench area could not be used in events. They can't be loaned. They are benched. Benched characters are able to get new covers and ISO, and that's it.

Each time a roster slot is purchased, characters can be moved off the bench.

For 50 HP, any number of characters can be moved onto the Bench.
For 50 HP, one character can be moved from the Bench into an existing Roster slot.

Bench slots can be expanded at a third of the cost of the Active Roster slots.

    Can we have 'grace windows' during which time you can freely move players on to, or off of, the bench? Like during the break between seasons?

    Ideally we would get some kind of amnesty, or need-driven exception that would allow you to use a benched player for a heroic event where they were required. (because who is going to keep 2* Captain America on their active roster when they have lazy Cap finished?)

    This makes a lot of sense given a newly drawn character is likely not going to offer any usuable value to a roster until several more covers are drawn. I could be excited at the prospect of using a 1/0/0 Elektra and want to do it badly enough to make room on the active roster... but pragmatically most of us will want to drop her into cold-storage until we get another 8-12 covers for her (and maybe also some portion of the ~half-a-million ISO to level her up)..
