Can we please have the ability to set our forces up prior to the fight actually starting a la the Total War games?
I lose archers and mages way too often due to the game either putting them in front of, or immediately beside, my melee units that should be protecting them. Most battles I have time to rearrange before the enemy closes, but against fast enemies I usually lose a fragile unit before the melee even gets to move.
No commander would ever go into battle with his archers or robe wearing glass cannons in FRONT of his shield and/or spear carrying defenders.
