It's not uncommon in a lot of games to be able to set the type of "group formation," and even the "group tactic."
Maybe sloth could have different options and new group commands to make the group dynamic more strategic.
group formation wedge (triangular)
group formation singlefile
group formation doubleline
etc
group tactic encircle (Russian Roulette, one person suffers full attack from the mob all players attack with max dam - no prots - if monster has more than two limbs or one head another player is also attacked)
group tactic defensive (front line has increased ac, back line decreased attack)
etc
Each command would adjust hit/dam and chance to be hit, and how much a person can be hit for. Complex, fun, a lot of work, certainly adds new dimension to combat strategy.
