I do. At least in single-player, I tend to have many fighting heroes with magic items, with orders to wade right into battle. Usually they have several men set to guard them, too (and those men need to be able to keep up with the charging leader).

It's a good idea to bring along leaders to be stay-in-back commanders, too, so if the fighter leaders all die, the whole army doesn't necessarily rout.
