Another game you might want to consider is Runes of Magic. It is free to download and play. They make their money if you buy stuff with real money (horse, potions, housing, furniture, etc...) http://www.runesofmagic.com/us/index.html It is still in beta. It has taken many ideas from WoW, plus added a few more into the mix. I am not saying it is better than WoW, it obviously h

Base generals not risking there life allows there minions to always be on the field of battle and lowers the opponents opportunity for gold/exp. [quote who=
To balance "Base Generals" with Generals that go out into the field, all you would have to do is reduce the recast time on the minions. This would allow the "Base General" to keep sending waves of minions out. If you go out into the field, then the General would be able to buff, debuff, heal, stun, etc...
