it would be helpful if there was a mechanic added that was:

if you place a banner, you can right click it and there is also the option to make it a guard post. you then type in a squadronand wander distance, and go to a nearby hired unit. there is a new option on guard; station. you then type in the same squadron as you did in the banner, and the troop walks over to the banner and wanders within the distance typed in to the banner. it will then pursue enemies as far as one chunk, but then return to it's post. (it would be best if it knew not to walk anywhere that would make it impossible to return to it's post(like holes, cliffs ect) but i don't know what's possible to code in minecraft)

this would not be using a gold, silver or bronze block, just a placed banner.
