Better commanders:

Make commanders have more effect on the troops they lead, by creating more 'standard' type abilties. For example, an archer commander would increase the precision of troops under his command. To encourage realistic commander placement, the archer commander would also have to be near the troops he is commanding. It works pretty much like the 'auras' in Warcraft 3.

At the moment, most non-mage commanders are generally just a transport device for armies that are too big for a mage to 'carry'. With this system, choice and placement of individual commanders can make a difference to the outcome of battle.
