It's an interesting idea. I guess we'd have to try it to see how it
works and whether it's fun to play but technically it's certainly
possible to do something like that. If you can find a convincing reason
for making such a switch in the middle of a battle you can probably
pull this off, no problem. Maybe you should try to make the player
thankful he got out of it. ;-)
