Warrior General Games

I have a slow build center and slow build OT, they each still have 85 SP's not including the 15 for boosting in season 10, 70 bonus tokens and 5 shopping tokens. They also don't have CE or any equipment for that matter. My big question is what stat to focus on the most with equipment, I was figuring strength but perhaps throw a few upgrades in blocking? Also, what AE with SA's should I look for? I rolled for both of them and the best is:

Center = AE with +1 to Absorb Pain (seems like I am better off rolling again)
OT = 1)+1 to shock block and 2) +2 confidence & +1Lead Block
Should I just re-roll both players?

Here are the builds:
OT No SA's..no point until much later

Not sure why tackling keeps going up on level ups for both but it does. Any suggestions on equipment placement would be great.

I'd put the EQ in strength for the center, he has to face some monstrous strength-based NT's...

Thanks, any thoughts on the AE's? I am torn right now.
