*But is "Form a shield line with skirmishers on the sides and artillery behind/heavy brigade form a rally point for the others to dive behind if they need it/skirmishers, have 'em in the back while we distract them/break rank and fill your boots but keep an eye on each other" going to be enough to keep people happy?*
Strangely enough, this tactic has won almost every major battle in history (although there are always exceptions) It also tends to win the Gathering battle most years. Small skirmishs work rather differently. I have studied small and large scale tactics to a fine detail so I am very good at playing wargames like Warhammer. When the enemy is in your face its a little different and I'd be the first to hold up my hand and say 'I'm not a great party leader'.
