Default Re: Newbish question

I have been wondering about 'Scripting' troops in a battle.

At first I kind of chuckled at the lack of choices you had for your army and Commanders.

But as I looked at it more I realised that within the game rules there are some very subtle and important factors involved (and I am not chuckling now).

I have one question but any hints anyone would care to give would be very much appreciated.

The question I have is:

1.When you set your Infantry or Cav on Hold and attack....

Can you pick the NONE option instead of closest enemy ect and have them hold the line so to speak while your archers rip the heck out of you opponents?

I can see you putting your archers a couple of squares behind Infantry (depending on range of course) and having the enemy have to come to you (or at least try) thru a rain of arrows (Fire or otherwise) because YOUR infantry stays put.

Am I on track here or is this something that is beyound the capibility of the limited orders we have to work with?

Thanks!!!
