I too would like to see a mulligan system;
perhaps it should just be a mulligan system based on the potential useability of the cards you're given.

For me one of the biggest annoyances is when you get 6+ cards that are simply unuseable at the start; and I do'nt mean bad, I mean cards with requirements that aren't met at game start.

It's also tricky though to define a system, cuz you have cases like cards that need energy but you get no energy generation, so you can only play them if you use standard project power plant. so you can still get cases where you're kinda hosed that aren't caught.

It’s very simple.
This should be an option.
That way, every player can choose which game to take part in.
If you don’t like the initial hand draft, you don’t take part in the game.
Otherwise, you do.
Every competitive game and every tournament involves a draft of initial hand.
If you have the best 10 cards in your hand, you’ve already won.
With the draft of initial hand, the game is undeniably more balanced.
It rewards choices, not initial luck.

Suggestion for the forum mods:

A sticky post at the top (right below the forum moderation sticky) that reads simply"

"Nothing can be implemented on BGA that has not been approved officially for the game by the game publisher".

That is a good idea in theory but it likely wouldn't help much.

There could probably be numerous stickies added to the bug forum requesting players not waste everyone's time with inane bug reports, but the people who post these inane reports in the first place probably don't bother to read stickies.
