Only bought the game last night, played about 15 mins, so I would like to know how to make a group with my Sovereign? Since mine has no combat ability I would like some cannon fodder to walk around with my leader. Can it be done and how?
Have your sovereign stand somewhere, then tell your other units to walk to that same spot. They'll combine into a group and can move around as a group. You can have 10 "units" group that way (but if you train a squad of 4 units at once, that counts as a single unit).
If you make a custom sovereign you can get a skill that lets everything grouped with the sovereign move at the sovereign's speed, so the travelling boots in the item shop will speed the whole army up. Very cool. 
About groups:
1: There wil lbe a number of circle icons over the bottom part of the interface. This is the group.
2: If you move a unit into the sovereign's area, or a group, or move the sovereign onto a group, that will form a new group.
3: To split up units in a group, click on them so there's a small 'up-arrow' on the unit(s) in question. (Shift-click for more than 1). Right clicking anywhere will tell them to leave.
4: Using escape to deselect the group may be useful, it's not allways responding too well to clicking again to toggle it off.
5: The skill Tridus mentions is 'organized' and I believe that may be the best skill in the game. (It lets certain slow monsters still keep track with the boss.).
