That's "sad"? I'll tell you what's really sad. On my first PBEM turn (obviously as Soviet) I ASSASSINATED Vassilevsky... using the HQ Relocate thing to make his HQ leave the almost Lvov pocket. Now that's sad [:@] ... [:D] ... am I crying? Nope [8D]

Nothing to cry about on that front. If a german (or soviet) HQ gets circled early in the game and has to use the relocation option to jump through enemy lines. You should have a chance your general dies. Nothing to complain about if that german/soviet general dies.
That is a completely separate issue then leader dismissals.

bwheatley, I DID laugh when that happened to me [:)]

And no, you only know half of the story [:D] Vassilevsky was NOT the boss of that Corps HQ in the Lvov salient. Another guy was in charge... I FIRST assassinated that other guy (with the relocate thing). So ONCE I managed to kill that poor soul the STAVKA automatically assigned another vict... er, guy to that Corps HQ. Er... Vassilevsky, a top ace... that did not stop me from assassinating him too [;)] So it was not the game's fault. It was MY fault (my first PBEM turn, a total NOOB, etc.) [:D]
