Here is the offical list of BFME Hotkeys/Shortcuts for the English Keyboard
Universal
S- Stop A- Attack Mode Q- Select All Fighting Units E- Select All of Same Unit Near (after clicking on a unit) E(2)- Select All of Same Unit on Map Ctrl + Number- Label Group/Unit/Building as the Number You Selected Number- Select the Numbered Group/Unit/Building M- Formation X- Scatter G- Guard Shift + Selection- Add a Group or Unit to an Already Selected Group Shift + Unit- Queue 5 Units From a Building D- Demolish Building C- Demolish Building in Progress Alt + Right Click- Set a Waypoint Click Building + Right Click on the Map- Set a Rally Point H- View Citadel Ctrl + H- Cycle Through Heroes Alt + Number- View That Numbered Group Click One Unit, Right Click Another- Combine Units (Does not work with all units) `- View Power Point Menu Ctrl + B- Place Beacon Enter- Talk Globally Backspace- Talk to Team Ctrl + Enter- Communicator
However, with shift you can group groups temporarily. Example, Theoden is on 1, rohirrim on 2. Hit shift and hold it, then hit 1 and 2. Both groups are now selected.
Note that no hotkey is assigned to them, they're just selected until you select another unit or group.
anyone else see the irony that "qwerty" is having a hotkey catastrophe?

ctrl+H Cycle through heroes alt+# View corresponding team (doesn't select)
These two are useful to see what all your troops are doing
Why isn't there an option for cheer? There's plenty of unit emotion in the game, so it already has animations, you'd only have to put in a button to make your units cheer on command. In ZH its ctrl-c. It would be funny to put some soldiers in front of a noob's base as cheerleaders:
"You can do it! Build that archery range!" (soldiers constantly cheering)

Bunched up units will kinda spread apart and move in opposite directions. If used right, it can help avoid large losses from a catapult or treb attack.
There's so many unit commands and stuff...
