I think it would be good if there were more features built in that would help with team play, something that could help organize strategy better.
Some ideas I had about this:
1. A pop-up menu to give commands
2. If a player would like to request that his teammates send troops to a location on the map, he makes the appropriate selection from the pop-up menu, and then clicks the location of the map. The area would "light up" in the mini-map for ten seconds. Perhaps even a flashing outline or shadow of a "soldier" symbol would appear indicating to other players "send all available units to this location"
3. If a player would like to request that a totem be built at a particular location, a player could use a procedure similar to the one outlined above. A flashing totem would appear in the spot requested.
What I outlined in #2 could be used for immediate danger, or simply to station some soldiers at a particular location. If it's an emergency situation, the mini-map would flash red, but for just placing soldiers into position to secure it, it would flash yellow.
4. A way to signal to other players that the enemy is approaching and is about to attack
