So let’s say you’re in the middle of an attack, with soldiers from several forts together to defend at the point of attack. Eventually, some soldiers may chase raiders all over and sometimes get seperated from the action with no enemies to attack. You want to order them back to the fight.
Seems like a simple concept but there’s 2 problems with this. First, the only command to move soldiers to a spot (other than manually selecting them) is to move the flag. Great, but which flag? If you click on the idle soldier, there’s no way to tell what fort they belong to and thus what flag to move. Second, what if you’re happy with the flag location? You just want to get the soldiers back to where it is so they are a cohesive fighting force.
The solution to the first problem is simple. On the soldier information panel, maybe in a corner of the soldier’s picture, put the flag of the fort they belong to. That identifies the soldier.
For the second issue, I think “Rally on the flag” would be useful, and when used all soldiers from a specific fort, or all soldiers, would disengage and move to their flag location. It could be added to the row of buttons used to command the soldiers.
