ORIGINAL: Nikel For reference, a list of senior soviet commanders who died along the war with several references, the last A. A. Stepanov, "the figure was 472 who died during the years of the Great Patriotic War, a general, an admiral and equal senior military leaders (including 268 who died at the front, 25 died in captivity, 56 were repressed, 123 died and died for non-combat reasons in the rear)." (Google translation). 472 deads/215 turns = 2,2 deads per turn. https://tinyurl.com/2p8tcw57 Though in the references I do not see A Maslov, the author of the book that translated Glantz. The leaders in the game represent only the Commander of the corp, army, army group, or front. They do not represent the various senior officers attached to the HQ's depending on their level, such as Intelligence, 2nd IC, Artillery, and Air Liason officers to name some off the top of my head. That figure of 472 will include more of these types of officers than the actual commanders.
