Default Re: What could we steal from other fantasy games..

Mid- and late-game I start renaming my commanders to their job titles. An indy priest who's supposed to go to province #49 and build a temple becomes "Build 49". The first thing I do on a turn after checking battle outcomes is to cycle through the commander list and do all the pre-determined moves. Build 49 moves one province closer to province #49, Forge-Boots forges another Earth Boots, Shuttle Fom moves a stack of units one step closer to my Fomoria stack, etc. All of this is done mindlessly before I start making hard strategic decisions like where to move real armies.
