Default Re: suggestion about commanders

Lots of desirable & good things mentioned. Particularly the following:

1. units staying in their group, rather than dashing off each at their own speed. Or at least to have this as an option.

2. a 'hold' command

3. distinction between 'fleeing' and 'routing'

4. some kind of bonus for units which are flanked on either side by members of their squad - at least a morale bonus, and maybe a defense bonus. Of course the penalties to defense already in the game (at least Dom I) for being surrounded might have the same net effect, if you get my meaning. But maybe a morale bonus?

5. different shapes for squads - can be done manually by subdividing into small Groups and placing alongside, but it would be so much easier if you could just make a line.

Don't know if any of these are possible/probable, but they sound like good ideas to me.
