Have you played the GMT serie of ancient battles? There was this kind of system, with better leaders trumping the weaker ones. I always liked the game flow resulting from this mechanic.

I don't remember really (it was maore than a year ago), but I believe it was a coding problem and a 'clarity' problem. Several small bugs and unwanted effects on the battle mechanics appeared and it was difficult to get an overview of the battle. PvKs suggestion with a differentiated turn sequence (archers, mages, move and melee) might remedy some of this, but it would take some remaking i believe.
