That's why I asked. I think writing the rules can be distributed at some level.
For example, discuss of each unit, and its properties, then freeze them, then
go to the next one, in a very precise manner, so that we have the exhaustive
set of units. After that, building the rule will be easier, even if it will
force some units/properties to be modified
