I HATE the idea of multiplayer. MP games always descend into a argument about game balance. So all the troops turn out to be exactly the same with only different skins. There's also the rush factor. I can't wait to get overwhelmed by someone’s army full of level one peasants.
More customizable options for the main character would go far. Allow new classes and races. Also allow the main character to be female (and also allow husbands).
The idea of a squire or some sort of apprentice character is nice. Maybe this character fights in the battles.
More magic items is also a good idea.
Expand the map to include different worlds. Maybe each world could have a theme. This could allow for the introduction of elemental troops, cthulhu type troops, angels, etc...
Also the ability to be evil and better affect the world would be nice. Maybe eventually the main character could be king and have different warriors, paladins, and mages (who then lead armies) under them. It would be nice if the choices you made affected the world (so you territory would morph into "good" lands or "evil" lands).
