Wish List/New Battle deployment options and Ambushing

Deployment

It would be cool if under the (Combat tactics: Deploy) there were left, right and center settings, this would make the battle system more realistic and more strategy involved in battles. Example) say you have 10 units of infantry and 2 units of cavalry vs. 12 units of infantry you could set 5 units of infantry left and the other 5 right with the cavalry back center so as the infantry are making there way to the middle the cavalry would punch through the lines...this may not have been the most strategic example but you get the idea.

Ambushing

This one I am a little ify on it would probly take a lot of coding and might not really be worth it but here I go...again...If your army was in a forest or moutainous (possibly badlands) region you would have the option to ambush...it would be like "digging in" where it takes 6 hours and there would be a limit on how big your army could be to "Ambush" but when ambushing you would not show up on scout reports and could not travel with out canceling the Ambush which would make you show up on scout reports again. Now heres where it might be a little out of hand but when ambushing if successful(by that I mean an enemy has traveled through the region you are ambushing) when you engage in battle the "Ambushers" would be attacking from behind(yes no maybe, not sure how well that would work with coding but it would be very cool and useful) Now the trade offs for one if you are ambushing and the turn changes weather you where successful or not you are unable to move that turn (it takes time to crawl out of your hole, fill it in, etc.) and if you do engage in battle you would be fighting as if your where set as vangaurd(because you cant have all your armor on when hiding in trees or in trenches)

A great example of this sort of deployment tactics can be seen in the game "Dominions 2". Troops are deployed (graphical in that case) in a box the represents your side of the battlefield and are given orders for what to do in the first three turns, eg: Fire on closest/largest/furthest/etc. for Archers, attack closest/rear/etc. or hold and attack for Infantry, Mixed Infantry and Cavalry. After the first three turns the lines pretty much go to hell much like real life. The Battlemaster combat system is much like it already and it seems more interactive troop deployment seems the next logical step. -Balewind
