Why were judges appointed during the time moses led the people?
Judges, during the time of Moses, were appointed because the Israelite people were far too numerous for Moses to arbitrate all of their disputes by himself. They then played a role similar to judges today, judging whether or not people were in the right or wrong, and if necessary sending a case to a 'higher judge' who would be considered wiser and better able to decide on a difficult case, similar to the court system in the US.
What were the roles of the judges in the Promised land?
They were judging as the their title says! Judges were before the kings of Israel.These were the people God chose at a given time to lead the nation of Israel since there were no human kings at the time leading the nation of Israel.They didn't necessarily have to be prophets but rather chosen by God to fight (sometimes) or lead the Israelites into battle or even quarrels among themselves. They were not revered like kings such as Saul, David or Solomon.Samson and Gideon were also judges. Famous judges include Samuel and Eli. As a matter of fact, 12 people are identified as judges by the Book of Judges. Please read this book for more details.Wikipedia gives a clear explanation too: http:/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biblical_judgesBut I recommend you read the Bible (the book of Judges) for this kind of information.

What role did the Judges play in Hebrew society?
The Judges were the rulers and military leaders in times of war before the Kings were selected. The first Judge was Joshua (the supposed author of the book of Joshua), several important Judges (but probably not all) are named in the book of Judges, and the last Judge was Samuel who was involved in the selection of King Saul and King David. Unlike the later Kings the Judges could not tax the people nor maintain a standing army in time of peace and they lived like all the other people (no palace, courtiers, harems, etc.). The judges also played an important role in bringing Israel back to worshiping God and obeying God's Law. In the book of Judges there is a repetition of - backsliding, oppression, repentance and deliverance.
