OK, I get it now. To quote from MASH, 'suicide is painless and it brings on many changes' Seems to me that 1 gamey exploit has been replaced by another. Russian can immediately destroy pocketed units the turn they are isolated, so they come back 1 turn earlier than before. Also, suicide prevents Germans from capturing their kit, experience/morale points for killing the units and no prisoners who can be turned into HIWIs. There may be times when units in a pocket which can't be rescued are better kept alive as speed bumps, but the elite suicide militia tactic is certainly going to be used quite extensively I think by the Russians.
