- Tighter control of units. I'm not talking about micromanagment, but things like target priority, the ability to force spellcasting (i.e have a caster cast a very powerful spell even if the AI deems in unnecessary) etc. Having your mage cast a strenght boost on your priests instead of your knights and not really knowing why is sure to put people off.

Also, separate battle orders.

Battle plans for: Battle, skirmish & assassination. The skirmish plan would take effect in any situation the game currently thinks is too weak for gems. If you want the big guns to be used in an apparently wimpy battle you script them for skirmish.

I would also like to see options like "cast offensive" or "cast defensive"--telling the guy how to behave for the rest of the battle.
