Controlling your troops

Well, I read many ideas about people who would like to have a better control, but a problem is that it needs to remain as simple as possible. In a game like this, I doubt we could start toying with formation or giving orders to individual soldiers.

We already have the key 1-5 to give orders to all our troops.

What if

6-7-8-9-0 : same orders but only for mounted troops(with no ranged weapons)

F1-F2-F3(or whatever key) : Hold position, follow me, charge to footmen(with no ranged weapons). No need for the mount and dismount orders.

F5-F6-F7-F8-F9 : Same orders but to soldiers using ranged weapons.

I think that would give us a much better and satisfying control over our troops without getting tedious or overwhelming for us.
 
Erm..Sorry to say it seems more tedious. got to remember all the buttons and it doesnt give total tactical control. Refer to my earlier post on melee combat http://taleworlds.com/v-web/bulletin/bb/viewtopic.php?t=2979 It covers more stuff me thinks
