You can give "Stay here", "guard me" and "attack nearest" commands
individually to henchmen.
By possessing the henchmen individually, followed by "stay here"
commands, you can put the henchmen exactly where you want them. So
one thing I do indoors is:
Move the casters to a particular spot several feet from a doorway,
move the fighters to a spot just ahead of them, move the rogue a few
feet further up and put her in "stealth mode", go back to my PC and
open the door. Pause, switch back to the casters and throw in a few
fireballs or AoE spells. The bad guys will come charging out towards
the casters, and when the get close, pause and switch to the casters
and broadcast the "guard me" or "attack nearest" command.
