For me - I would enjoy this. But for the sake of discussion, it's at least worth pointing out the flip side. Currently, it's difficult if not impossible to get all agents to adjust their player tactics as necessary based on input by the coordinators. And this typically involves only 1 or 2 selections. If this change were to happen, one concern is that making it more complicated would make it even harder to get agents to update their tactics. Arguably - this could create a lot more work for coordinators - who would have to council some of their agents (who may not be as experienced as coordinators / owners with this type of setup) on how to set their tactics.
Anyway - I think this is one of those ideas that would be great for those agents who are involved, log on every day, and have experience either as a coordinator or owner. But for all the other agents, this might be a complication and could actually make much more work for coordinators. Perhaps it would have to involve an option - something like "Choose advance or standard tactics AI". And then, based on that input, the agent would get the current set of options, or something along the lines of those in the op.

Maybe. Tho they would have to be super situational. Which would probably suck if done right. Especially for those with a lot of players.
That's why it should be optional. Basically, use the current system or choose an advanced system.
