Nobody You'd Know

Well, since the game has gone gold, there's not much reason to make suggestions anymore on what should be added to the game; however, I feel like doing a bit of premature speculation on the multiplayer aspect of the game (since all of the previews are pitifully lacking information in that respect).
Here's what I'd like to see (I take no credit for these ideas, as some come from other boards):
1. Online ranking - competitive games (along with friendly games with no ranking), including clans
2. Knowing there won't be an MP campaign, it would be nice to be able to have a persistent army you could take on multiple battles.
3. Stats available on players - how many times they quit games, etc.
4. Ability to pause if all players agree to pause
5. Ability to preset armies - if you usually like to use the same setup of units, it would be nice to just be able to load that
6. Ability to play preset battles (historical, etc.)
7. Ability to have reinforcements
8. Cost for defensive positions (if the map is only one bridge, you have to pay 10,000 as defender, if it has two bridges, you pay 7,500, if three bridges, you pay 5,000; if the map is a city, you pay 20,000; if a hill, you pay 2,000; etc.)
What else?
