Add Single Targets To Ambushes!

I would like to be able to design AE missions to use "Add an Ambush" and make the ambush consist of a single target (like, say, an Archvillain, Hero, or customized character)! All I can do is "Fight a Boss" and make that boss appear during or after a certain other event, but it won't come after me. I want to make AVs/Heroes and other custom characters come after you during another event (be jumped by an EB when fighting a boss/EB/AV, for example).

Maybe the single target in question can come alone, maybe with a small group. Point is, please make it possible.

I sure hope this doesn't get lost in the stacks of threads, but rather gets actual notice and consideration. I'd like to up the ante a little, make some of my custom missions more interesting and story-driven!

I'd also like to be able to flag mobs in ambushes as Unique. For example at one point I wanted to make a villainous mission where while they were destroying objects they were attacked by a Hero "team" trying to stop them. Problem was I could never get the game to spawn 1 of each member, regardless of team size.

Lemur Lad's suggestion would be one of the best things that could happen to AE in my opinion. So many climatic fights don't work because we have to respect the "big bad + X amount of bosses, lieutenants and minions based on player reputation".

I myself want to add AVs or Heroes coming in to ambush while a boss/EB/AV's maybe at 25-50% health. All I can do right now is activate a boss at that range who'll just stand around waiting for me to find him/her. I'd like the angry good-/bad-guy to charge!

Current options are just when to activate and what group the mob belongs to. Maybe the "Unique" option or "Single" would do, in which case you can select one person from the group you've selected (to include custom characters). Maybe have three selections in the "Enemy Groups" portion being either "Mob" "Single" or "Mob with Boss".

I have at least two AEs in this boat that I'd like to fix with such a change.

Biting down the "What, you want an AE change? Ha!" which is more borne of disillusionment...

Yeah, I wouldn't mind seeing it. Or LL's suggestion. I could see a lot of use for either one.

And let me make mobs of just Bosses! Unique Bosses! Or EB and Bosses, etc
There are so many ace changes they could make and haven't!
