Ok here is the origin of the idea, i love to play minions classes, oak and erb in special. However The mininons tend to have a bit of a will of there own. And are attracted to things like towers hehe.
In games like Command and conquer you can make a rally point, this is the point where troops will go when they are constructed.
I would really love for the generals to have the possibility to make such a point where you can sent minions if you want them to stay there. They can guard this point but will NOT leave it. Not even when selected, only when the point is cancelled then will they move.
This last part is usefull in specific for oak, since i like to leave my spirits at base for the damage bonus, but i dont like them to follow me beceaus they are VERY suicidal. This means at the moment i have to fidle around when i port in, sending the spirits back and things like that. Further uses would be to guard a flag or tower.
