Awesome idea!

I'm sick of dieing in the Heart of Mountain when my henches balled up and die!

/sign definitely!

There has to be some way to make your henchies spread out or clump together without flagging them.

This is as good a time as any to resurrect this suggestion, with the full hero party update just having been announced.

A spread out button would be a good and much quicker alternative to flagging each hero apart separately, and in areas where there are a lot of lethal AoE attacks (for example in the Foundry of Failed Creations) this would be essential.

I also like the idea of being able to give our heroes targets. It'd be great in situations where you have to protect a NPC. I can't blame him for wanting to heal a half dead bone minion rather than Prince Rurik, but still - it's a pain.

I like the idea of formations. Like say they define a set number of formations and allow players to pick and load 3 just like you load your builds before you leave a town/outpost. Then instead of 3 flags you have 3 formations. You simply click formation 1, 2, or 3. to change up.

But at least a slider or something to say "spread out" and "form up" would be nice.

I wonder if the op is still around or cares about this anymore. After 4 years it seems like we've all just gotten used to dumb AI

It's still a pain. A "fan out" command would be great, although there's already a shortage of space around the minimap (where are the flag buttons for heroes 4, 5, 6, 7 going to go?!) ...

Very good idea, formation control is very good. Even if we get the 7 heroes it is always good to have them spread out.

I hate it when AOE just totally whipes out my henchman because they are retarded.
Its okay when its a mistake on my side, or when I fail @ flagging/micro, but its not okay when its caused by a retarded AI.
