Commanding attacks

When commanding attacks it would be amazing if one could control the numbers of troops when forwarding in attack or defence mode. Likewise when pausing or moving backwards. E.g attacking with 40k cavs the option to move forward say 20k and pause 20k at back line. What are your thoughts on this?

not a bad idea

I've often considered this myself when it would be useful for me, however it would probably over-complicate battles which are already at just the right point between complex and simple.

Yeah I like this idea. But it would over complicate the game and so many love Haypi's simplicity that I doubt it will get implemented. Good idea though!

Kill the strategy of meat shielding though. May promote mass cats playing style, X amount hit cav, Y amount hit arch, Z amount hit cats.

And making some base defense like trap weaker

This more than the complexity.

Not practical. On a 30 sec turn you don't want to have to type in numbers forward and such. Plus it completely eliminates the value of cav as you could have 20 cav blockers and then 2k cats can kill 20k cav easily.

it would just lead to whoever has more cats wins

Support if u see this... I think there should be more to it than commanding troops. If you are attacking with a full army I think you should get to be a troop. For example, you forward all, and choose to be a single cat. You yourself target any troops in your way. It would get us more involved in commanding, cuz often times I have to guess at what's just happened in the last round
