James, how can you say this is already available? We have so far 4
options available for settings, and psymann is suggesting this as
settings which won't be so controllable by the marshals, since it
depends much on unit stats and even on the "unit personality" we have
today, and will give knights not only more control over their troops
but great RP opportunities, and the chance of having more fun in
battle...

Honestly, knights lack options that go beyond orders, these days.
