I use my 14 valor Famous Warrior general as my lone shock troop. He's an ex-prince (hence immortal) and an 8-star general (7 base, +1 for Duke of Normandy, +3 when attacking). I send him in alone to attack the opposing army at the onset of the battle. The enemy will surround him after he engages them. This causes them to expose their flanks, since the units are all turning to try to face my general. The rest of my army then rushes in and finishes off whatever units my general has left standing.
