This was a GREAT addition in AoW. A couple ways to make it even better:
1- Add a "DEFENSIVE" military focus. Sometimes you go to war, you don't need or want help from your vassals, but unless you send one unit to attach to and babysit them they will send small armies long distances and often to be slaughtered for nothing. There should be a "defensive" focus that means they will remain within their borders and not try to engage the enemy.
2- For the province objectives, you should be able to set ANY province as an objective. Sometimes you want your allies to defend a province already taken, or even a friendly province to defend it from attack. You should be able to set any province as an objective: friendly, enemy, or occupied. I'd even like to be able to do so during peacetime, when placing armies in key positions and using defensive terrain before being attacked has value.
