Follow-up, the "base scenario" shouldn't use random deployment. As already noted, an unbalanced deployment can result in an unbalanced start.

I would require a "symmetrical" deployment, with 2 units of each type going into the"inner ring," no two units of the same type adjacent in that ring, and the rest going into the outer ring, same limitation. I don't think you can flat forbid adjacencies between the rings. The random deployment can be an option.
