Default Allow Necromancers to command their undead minions.(strategic formations and dancing)

Ok,you see your undead minions go in a troop formation like a circle ( ) and in lines :::::. So why not be able to put a command in there to make them go in formations you would like and stay there,say a wedge formation /\ or like the other formations they go in,but alternate. Also,I would like to see a humorous command to make them dance to show the more fun side of being a Necromancer. Not to mention commands like patrolling,stay here,or hopefully make them attack when you ctrl+shift+space.

Though think of the dancing minions as something to add to the Halloween event this year,but they could be commanded to dance before the event. They could set up a little theater and have a Necro standing outside of it boasting his dancing minion act. Also,the stage's lights could be an eery green glow that the Necromancer is causing with his abilities.

Not to mention the horrors could do the warrior dance and the golem and the fiends could do the moonwalk or some other funny dances.

That's just something I would like to see. Comments anyone? ^_^

Grasshopper, first you must learn to herd cats, once you can command your feline minions to walk in formation, then you will be ready to learn how to command the undead, beyond the level of point at a target and let them rip.

I just want the minion AI improved so they move out of AoE like every other god**** thing in this ******* game. I'm a little passionate about this suggestion, as a matter of fact.

Would be bad if you commanded your minions to stay here and that here happened to be in an AoE and you wondered why they died....

Also,for the ranger's pets like the the felines,wolves,and bears they could stand on two legs and start doing the first part of the female warrior dance. XD

Dunno about the Striders,Crabs,and Lizards though.Maybe the crabs could do the Zoidberg dance.

uhm. if your minions get stuck on an aggro, just press a button and the will retreat and get in position :] also there should be a () position so they get close and stay for heal area instead of scattering.

Don't need formations. How they currently form up is enough. The only changes needed are so they move out of AoE and have fiends repositon themselves when the target is obstructed. So annoying to have 2 out of 10 fiends hitting because the enemy is around the corner. But break-dancing fiends FTW.

The formations were mainly for when you would heal them,when they would get stuck,or like mentioned before to get them out of the AoE attacks.

I don't think it's the best idea out there I just thought it would be a nice idea. I'm not removing the dancing part due to once person mind you. Especially for someone who can't type something as simple as "I'm" in. Not to mention taking away the dancing part of this idea is taking the fun part of it away.

I would love a formation command of "Stay Behind me", "Do Not Attack until commanded" and dancing would be cool. Also a fight amongst yourselves command would be nice too, to watch them duke it out with each other during the cinematics.
