Other than being annoying the following scenario is buggy, no?
I am on a hill outside Babylon, with a stack of CR-1 Macemen, Combat-1 Speamen, and Cats.
Hammurabi has a large force of horsemen, who attack my stack.
The top defenders are the CR-1 Macemen, who all take some damage, rendering my blitz assault worthless coz now they have to heal. Meanwhile, my combat spearmen are at full health not having seen combat.
Maces - Str 8
Spearmen - Str 4 x 100% vs horse, + 10% from combat.
WHY DIDN"T ME SPEARS DEFEND?!
sidenote: Although the micromanagement would be terrifying, I'd almost like to see a "manually choose defender" option....
