True, but before you use the "have a squad in front set to guard a commander in the rear" trick in an MP game, you might want to ask the other players if they are OK with it.
Is this considered an exploit? Seems like it could have negative implications as well if you were expecting it, but I may be wrong. Do people generally have a problem with this tactic?

I dont see any problem with it or any difference between that and the arrow actchers, you can apply the same tactic with single commander/thug set to retreat. Its all a question of scripting your armies better than your opponents.(So yea + 1 why is it considered exploit if it is?)
