Uh, the first one is okay but the last two is a bit oof. Where the hell where all the hammers and bows come from? I let you do that but you'll have to buy it.

Y'know, instead of 20 Swordsmen its 20 Hammermen, or 20 Archers.

A troop specialty would only work if every other kind of troop not of that kind under your command had a penalty. There should be a price for specialization.

Melee Specialty makes you loose/give penalties to the archers.
The other way around for ranged like Xbow and Archery.

If you want to do that that's fine with me but it's kinda pointless to me.

Officer 1 and 2 both chooses Ranged specialty.
General and Officer 3 chooses Melee Specialty.
Melee charges while ranged fire.
Battle has been won.

I suggest the three officers commands a different type of troop, cavalry, melee and ranged. They will micro-manage the individual squads in each, while the general manages the whole battle.

Uh, thats what I wrote in the rules already. If you havent heres the bit that talks about that:
 
General and Officer rules
The General and Officers are played by humans. The General is in command of the whole army while the officers are in command of 1-3 units. Generals issue basic orders like: Charge, Hold, Fall Back, Flank etc. Officers can control their units with a bit more depth as they focus on their units.

So far Emperor_Jonathan gets to be the calvery officer. Rashiul you can be a offcier maybe archery or infantry?
 
General is still open for anyone.
