Squad Leader Archive

I've been playing SL for a few weeks now. And I've decided that there's a skill that I would really really like to see. /painttarget This would "paint" the currently selected target of the SL, with some clear visual marker for the rest of the group. Also, on the group entry for the SL on everyone elses list put an icon that they can click to change their target to the target that is /painttarget 'd.

This would help me a *lot* because as leader of a group, I often find myself doing crowd control. Thus I *don't* want my group shooting my current target always. I want to be able to clearly designate a target, and have the group work on that one, while I, and anyone else doing crowd control have licence to shoot other targets. /painttarget would last on the target until it dies, or the SL recasts. If you had clicked the icon in the group list to select the previous target that was /paint'd, then there should be some indication that you're no longer on the current /paint'd target.

I would put this skill in either novice SL, or maybe Strategy I.
