    Should we be able to choose which unit to defend?

    That's what siege units are for. If you use spearmen to defend, the opponent will be able to run cannons into your stack all day long, actually, as long as your stack lasts which shouldn't be long. Matching up defenders to attackers is like matching up teams in a tournament. If you do it...
