I think it would be an awsome effect to add to the SL where he can gain a command, something along the lines of "battlefield command" where the camera would zoom back and out to give the SL some real time strategy perks. Like selection, the box selection you get when selecting groups of units. Click on a enemy to designate the target for those you selected.

More or less the SL kinda goes inactive in combat, but can command everyone from an extended veiwpoint.

Doubt it would ever be like this, but it would kick ass none-the-less.

For a sample of this try Savage(S2Games)

Did a real nice job of mixing a RTS and a first person shooter. If they could implement something close to Savage, it would be a great day indeed.
