Default Re: Micromanaging armies and commanders

Gandalf, unless something has changed, troops on bodyguard are not able to fire their missile weapons. I preached many time to have this bug fixed, to no avail. Perhaps in a coming patch?

I think I noted 2 errors in the thread:

- a commander which is hurt or killed *wont* make his squad rout.
- a commander in the midst of a formation *wont* boost the moral of the units, except if he is a standard (but only because of that).

Here is my solution to prevent your archers from advancing against the enemy. You will see, its very easy. Recruit size 5 or 6 commanders. Place them on the battlefield in an empty box formation. have them on hold 5 time order. Put your archers into the square. The poor fellows wont be able to move before the 6th round. Kinda cool and easy to do no?

edit ops sorry I posted without having read the Last page. My bad! - So Gandalf, no I'm not harassing you. Hope your flu has disapeared...
